Moreover, I was taken in by the cult of JoePa. If football is Penn State?s religion, Paterno is somewhere between the pope and God. Paterno, who has been at Penn State since 1950 and has been the Nittany Lions? head coach since 1966, has long been our school?s benevolent figurehead. Penn State, I learned, had one of the highest rates of graduating football players. A friend who played for the football team?a four-star Rivals.com recruit?told me that one of the reasons Penn State wanted him was his moral character. The team was among the least-penalized in the nation. When Adam Taliaferro suffered a catastrophic injury in a 2000 game, Paterno insisted that he keep his scholarship; the coach?s wife, Sue, drove regularly to Philadelphia to bring the hospitalized Taliafero cookies.
