Paterno will not coach next year

I'm just saying it. I have no proof other than I am prescient from time to time and just simply know the future. Paterno (I refuse to call him Joepa anymore, because I just don't like it) will go to work in the media part time. He is a real coach however. At the other two big 10 schools if you can't win with them you pretty much don't get to have a job anymore; look at Earle Bruce, John Cooper, Lloyd Carr, Gary Moeller. But Paterno is different. He can coach and he made PSU into the monster that they are today. But--- after him-- every coach will be quickly placed on the hot seat. The only way the next coach gets a reprieve is if Paterno himself is still around to back his protege who is likely to be someone from his defensive staff.

Soccer killing the Big 10?

Another factor nobody is mentioning is the growing popularity of that "running around sport"- SOCCER!

Before & After

Borrowing a little Wheel of Fortune action... SI has picked Purdue's Tony-Curtis Painter as their top Big 10 offensive player. I choose to call him Tony Curtis Painter because white guys named Curtis are usually a little too into masturbation. Don't ask me why, that's just what I think when I hear about a white guy named Curtis. "They caught Curtis jacking off in the restroom at the bowling alley." "JJ's older brother Curtis has all the nudie mags. And vaseline. And his mom don't care."

Everybody's top choice for Heisman is Beanie Wells from Ohio State, so what SI is saying might be if Purdue can beat Ohio State Tony Curtis Painter wins the Theisman? I mean Heisman?
