This is going to be a hot topic in the sports world and major media.
Here's the question......should Joe Paterno shoulder part of the blame here? Should Paterno be forced to step down? Did he not do enough?
Many are calling for just that (Paterno to step down) and that may be what ultimately happens. Imagine a legendary career like that ending this way? What a shame.
I haven't thought it through enough yet, and don't know all of the facts, but here's one major problem I have with all of this....
Why didn't these people go DIRECTLY to the police? For example, in the incident that Paterno was involved with, an assistant goes to Joe's house to tell him what he saw, and that was it. I'd like to think I would have gone to the police first and Joe's 2nd.
Paterno passed along what he was told to the University people, but should he have done more?
