[Marshal Dillon]

This is a disaster waiting to happen.

I'll bet Jopa feels that reviewing plays during a game is a huge waste of time. He thinks they first have to line everyone back up the way they were. Then everyone moves the same way as they did on the play in question. Can you trust a guy that just interferred on a pass to do it again in slow-mo while everyone is watching? And fumbles? How the heck are you gonna get a guy that fumbled in mid-air to stop,--in midair-- for us to review? It just won't work.

I watched him on their media day broadcast
it was like "My Cousin Vinny" part II

 

[Marshal Dillon]

Yeah, I listened to him talking and it was sad. How's he going to make split-second decisions and remember everything going on? It's pathetic.

[Chechem]

Yeah, I lestened to him talking and it was sad. How's he going to make split-second decisions and remember everything going on? It's pathetic.

I saw that Big 10 Media-Days interview he gave this week.  They asked him about the taunting rule.  He had no idea what they were asking about.  He'd never heard of the rule or concept.  As much as I liked the JoPa of Coach Bryant's day, I'm saddened by this JoPa. 

"It's time to retire, JoPa."

[Coach Hank Crisp]

Cardboard cutout of JoPa on sidelines would be more involved.

"And that will extend to play-calling.

Paterno admitted his role on the sideline decreased in recent years due to injury."

His 60 year old son was doing the play calling before.

One thing is for sure. Penn. St. has been pointing to this rematch for a year.

107,000 fans in Beaver Stadium. Loud.

Doesn't he say he is going to be more involved this year every year? He may have Alzheimier's.

The dieing breed of a Great coach that is ruining himself by hanging around. He may also be scared because he is a afraid if he quits he'll die. RTR!

[Old Tider]

He's a figurehead who gets credit for the victories while he wonders what just happened on the field. Probably wants to be the oldest coach in history.

I'm with Chech. This really is such a sad situation. He needs to retire to avoid tarnishing the great rep he has built up over the years.

It'll never happen. He can be 90 years old, using a walker, can't tell you the time of day, but he will still be the HC of Penn State. I blame this on the Penn St. Administrators for letting this become such a sick joke. At least, FSU made Coach Bowden step down, they had to for the sake of the program. Think about it, the O-coordinator is Joe's 60 year old son. The entire saff is ossifying.

Well said!! 

[Coach Hank Crisp]

Penn. State fans are great. Serveral of their fans came up to us after last years game and said how good a team we had. Also later in the season last year JoPa's son sent UA a letter thanking CNS, CMM for a great game.

At the 1982, 1984, 1986, 1988, and 1990 games they brought fans from Pa. that were great. I remember the respect each university has for each other.

A great college rivalary. Penn. State- The Crimson Tide

All the millions JoPa has given Penn. St. university will let JoPa retire when he wants to.

25% of the university buildings have JoPa's names on them. He built Beaver Stadium to sit 107,000 fans. That is huge!

PSU was notorious for homecooking, especially pre-Big East. Half of his victories are questionable.

[SUPERCOACH]

Penn State-Alabama is what a college rivalry should be.  I wish they would play every year.
