Jerry Sandusky story
Figured this story deserves a thread of its own.
One thing that sticks out to me - he retired in '99 at age 55? I'm curious to hear from Penn State fans what the story was at the time - seems a bit odd for an assistant football coach to retire that early unless he was claiming some kind of health-issue or family matter. Assistants in those days didn't make that much - he probably on just started clearing 6 figures in the last few years of his career - so I'm guessing he didn't retire with a huge amount of money socked away.
In light of what's been alleged, it natural to wonder if his retirement wasn't actually him getting pushed out.
My father-in-law is a huge, huge Penn State fan, and for his sake I sure hope Paterno is clear in all of this.
