Vic’s Picks: Joe Paterno, Penn State, Bulls-Heat

Victor Rodriguez — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 17:12:10 +0000

With the passing of Joe Paterno last Sunday the question of JoePa’s legacy has already been asked. Will he be remembered as a loving and loyal man? Or will his lasting image be the dark cloud that surfaced a couple of months ago, costing him his job? The reality is it’s in the eye of the beholder. Hopefully most will remember JoePa for all the good he did at his time at Penn State. Certainly questions will be asked about why Paterno didn’t do more regarding Jerry Sandusky, but when asking those question lets not forget all the good he accomplished. The argument can be made that JoePa has done more for Penn State, both athletically and academically, than any other coach in America. Paterno and his wife, Sue, would donate millions of dollars to the university for educational purposes. How many other college coaches would think of doing the same thing? Watching the public memorial service for JoePa was touching and inspirational as everyone shared stories about Paterno. He was definitely a man who left a lasting impression on everyone he met. While many still mourn the loss of their beloved coach, remember to the celebrate the life of a man who lived his life trying to make it a better place for everyone. He made a mistake, but what man can say they haven’t. JoePa will always be remembered as a coach who cared not only for his football program, but the whole community of Penn State.

Vic’s Picks: Penn State, Joe Paterno, Oregon-Stanford

Victor Rodriguez — Sat, 12 Nov 2011 15:52:07 +0000

By now, all the talk surrounding Penn State and the firing of Joe Paterno has been exhausting, but the end might not be in sight. First off, let’s remember the ones that were taken advantage of by former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky are the real victims. It’s not Joe Pa who was relieved of his duties over the phone instead of in person. The Penn State trustees who made the decision to remove Paterno immediately did the correct thing. If blame is going to be put on Paterno, assistant coach Mike McQueary deserves the same, if not more. McQueary witnessed Sandusky in the shower and only spoke to his father and Paterno. Morally, both Paterno and McQueary should be ashamed of themselves for not doing more. An interesting question with Paterno is after the biggest scandal in recent memory under his watch, what will his legacy be? Will he be remembered for 409 wins, the most of any coach in Division I history? Or as the guy who turned his back and didn’t do more to prevent this disturbing act? The reality is simple. It’s in the eye of the beholder. Some may just look at all the good things, while others will only take the negative. However, few, may take a little of both, which is where it should be. In a sense, Joe Pa was bigger than life in the state of Pennsylvania and yet because of his stature, he might have dug his very own grave by keeping quite.
