The Joe Paterno era at Penn State has come to an end.
After 46 years at the helm and just hours after announcing that he was retiring at the end of the season, Head Coach Joe Paterno has been fired by the Board of Trustees. This is all in the wake of the charges against former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky, who allegedly molested eight young boys between 1994 and 2009.
Joe Paterno just released a brief statement: “Right now I am not the football coach, and that’s something that I will have to get used to.”
Another casualty is University President Graham Spanier, who resigned before he was terminated.
