    Yeah - wouldn't be appropriate for Nutt to be in the mix for the Penn State job would it?

    Nutt wont even be mentioned in the conversation. He's done as far as major college football goes. He needs to look for a nice little cream puff to land at.

    He wasn't out of it in 2002. He was allegedly informed of a Penn State individual sexually assaulting a ten year-old boy. (The issue as to why the witnessing adult did not stop the assault on the spot is beyond creepy in its own right).

    Yes, he's a legend, but he perhaps got too carried away with his reputation & that of PS, causing him to sweep the matter (and that child's welfare) under the carpet.

    I'd like to hope that I would have acted differently/decisively. Joe Pa had the props to take any azzhat down--even publically--and then be able to weather the storm & come out shining as an upright guy who did the right thing for the child and for the University.

    Time to exit! A sad, disgraceful way to tarnish a brilliant career.....

    Everything that he has accomplished in his career is completely overshadowed by his failure to do everything in his power to protect innocent children.
