(IN THE WORLD OF COLLEGE ATHLETICS . . . : HE'S NOT AN AVERAGE JOE : Paterno Wants to Win--and Usually Does--but What Sets Him Apart From Many Football Coaches Is That He Won't Put Game Ahead of Academics, Integrity - Los Angeles Times)

Paterno had the following response regarding new academic regulations for African American students.

"We have raped a generation-and-a-half of young black athletes. We have taken kids and sold them on bouncing a ball and running with the football and that being able to do certain things athletically was going to be an end in itself.

"We cannot afford to do that to another generation."

"It's unbelievable to think that kind of corruption came right from the top of the power structure. The NCAA did what it had to do."

In the end, Penn State's Joe Paterno exposed as NCAA's No. 1 fraud - ESPN New York

I read an article yesterday where they took a bunch of quotes from Paterno during the late 90's. The Canes were actually interested in bringing him over there during their probation period. QUOTE -- "We're at the other end of the spectrum, and I don't think it's necessary for Miami to try to be Penn State. Miami needs to ... come to grips with the fact it needs more control."

Then Paterno said this: "If I went down there ... it would really be rubbing sand in the wound."

REST IN PISS JOEY
