Classic, it's entirely possible I'm missing it.
But have you or anyone else come across "smoking gun" email(s)
or evidence that serves to put so much blame on Paterno ?

I'm not a fan of any coach or any particular school,
but my first reaction on hearing about this Report was
"Yeah sure, blame the dead guy."

Despite Paterno being the "Great God of Football", it seems to me,
his job was not to actually do the investigation of Sandusky.
I've read that he turned the matter over to his superiors,
and he did later inquire about the status of the investigation.
To me, that seems proper for a faculty member in such an organization, even a GGofF.

(I found one email where one of the Administrators says he talked with coach (Paterno).
Was there not anything more than this ?
