9. I am not so sure about that

Here, certainly, some of the media, but JoePA is almost a god to many in the northeast.

13. I've been reading some Penn State message boards recently, and even there the majority think the BOT

made the right decision in firing him. His supporters were more vocal (at least, in the wake of Joe's announced retirement and then the board's firing of him), but the board's admin put up a poll (not scientific, obviously) and a majority of respondents supported the decision.

The program may not survive this scandal. Who is going to send their children to this program after all of this?
