Interesting read if you have time. Just thought I would share.

With the finding of the Freeh report I think this action is more than warranted!!!

I think PSU should take down his statute. He put the PSU brand, the program, and his legacy before these poor kids. And the whole time, he was preaching "success with honor."

He was slinging rocks around a glass house for almost 2 decades. And people are STILL defending him. Sickening...

Agreed. Very disappointed in Joe P.

I meant "statue."

Has me so mad I can't spell!

It seems kinda wierd that a "man of integrity", fell so far, so fast, but he made his own bed, and now he's taking a permanent dirt nap in it.

I say remove the statue, but I doubt that they will.

Always protect you name and in this case Nike said see ya!!! I don't blame them a bit.

The Board of Trustee's def. did the right thing in November when they let him go.

Sad situation all around......
