Does anyone really think he can see the players on the field any more?

He does more coaching than Bowden. Bowden is a figurehead now. JoePa is still the man.

Yeah, you could tell that he was calling the plays last night, but do you think he could see much of what was happening? It looked like the assistants would come to him and say, "3rd and 2 on the 40, what now coach?"

I mean, fuck, he's nearly 80 and glasses that thick. I just can't imagine the game out on the field looks any more than a big blur going on.

All I know is when his defensive coordinator retired the team won 3 games. He's a recruiter.

I'm gonna say that you could have dancing bears on the field and if you could make the noises of the game going on, he would think he was coaching.

Joe Paterno - Anhil8tor - 01-05-2006

i wonder if its harder for florida state to recruit QB's or kickers?



How the fuck is it that Miami U, Fla State and all these schools can't recruit one QB but West Virgina can have some red shirt freshman stud.
