GoldRing: "When someone who has touched all the basic educational stops along the way goes sour, or completely turns bad. That's when I get surprised and then receive the biggest shock. Because I really do not expect the people that we have learned to trust, suddenly to double cross what seems so very true in our daily life. "That the only way to beat the law, is to not break the law."
For
Jerry Sandusky to be hurting and sexually abusing very young children for such a very long time as he worked for Penn State University is very startling, and appareling. That the Head Coach, AD, University President knew of this crime and did not stop Jerry Sandusky's hideous behavior cold. Is really unbelievable. Simply breathtaking. Why in the world wouldn't these men stop Jerry Sandusky?"

Paterno family still doesn't get it

Review of Freeh report unneeded, won't help coach's legacy

By Johnette Howard | ESPN.comThe Paterno family's announcement Monday that they're hiring their own experts to do a comprehensive "review" of the Freeh report that scathingly fingered Joe Paterno as part of a cover-up that allowed suspected child molester Jerry Sandusky to operate for years is yet another bald attempt to put preserving Paterno's legacy as a football coach above all else. In other words, it reeks of the same sort of hubris and misplaced priorities that led to so many grotesque things happening at Penn State in the first place.

Dandy Don's LSU Sports Report

Good morning, Tiger Fans.
Yesterday LSU picked up another commitment for 2014 in Chris Hardeman (CB, 5'9", 178, Houston). Hardeman is LSU's second commitment for next year's class, along with Kain Daub (LB, 6'3", 227, Ponte Vedra Beach, FL) who committed Saturday. Karedeman is a bit on the small side at 5-9, (about the size of Tyrann Mathieu), but is only a junior in high school could easily grow and inch or two. He's got good speed, cover skills and football instincts which could make him effective as a nickel/dime back in LSU's scheme. Here's Hardeman's highlight video. Read more about the other three commitments while hosting the current camp,...http://www.dandydon.com/
