"He's been in my home", translates to, "he's been around my children". What a horrifying thing to realize, that this man, whom you consider a friend, is the *worst* kind of monster. Worse yet? He's been around *your* kids. I can't even imagine.
Matt Millen has nothing to apologize for. I've always respected him as a broadcaster, and now I respect him even more. His heart was truly broken for Sandusky's victims, and also for the damage done to coach Paterno and the Penn St program. He was honest, emotional, and truly horrified by the whole situation.
Matt Millen was obviously sickened and shocked by what Jerry Sandusky did. He was emotional. But his point was that even though it was an emotional issue, even for him, those emotions should not drive people to make other decisions. It was like when he said that part of him wanted to "take care of it" himself...he stepped back and said that doing so would be the wrong thing. Divorcing yourself of emotions when making decisions doesn't mean you can't have emotions. You just need to TEMPORARILY put those emotions aside and be rational.
Can't believe it's been almost 10 years since this news first broke. I remember being out to eat somewhere in my hometown when the news broke and then going home & listening to the initial reports on ESPN & I was just in complete shock. I was at the last game Paterno coached (the snow game against Illinois) & even then I never saw this coming. I also was there when he won his 400th game. And in an instant. it seemed that none of it mattered anymore. I'm a VA Tech Hokies fan in an entire household of Penn State fans, so this was a notable, sad event for us as a CFB loving family.
Same too. I remember it well. I was my freshman year in high school and I could remember watching Dancing With the Stars with the family and I overheard my mom and older brother talking about an assistant coach at Penn State raping boys and I was like: “This can’t be Penn State?” And sure enough it was. The next when I was in intervention class with my brother and he was talking about it with the teacher who so happened to be my football coach and I talked about it with him and I said I thought it was a bunch of BS and the NCAA is like: “Now that we already bullied Ohio State long enough, who’s next on the list so that we can give Michigan a fighting chance at a national title let alone a Big 10 conference title?” Coach gave that are you kidding look and said “Do you know what that guy did? He should be shot” I didn’t know about the scandal well enough back then and looking back I feel very stupid for saying those remarks. And ever since the scandal, I’ve hated Penn State and every single thing about them to the core. Go Bucks
I don't think Paterno was a monster or supported child sexual assault... but I cannot make an argument where he's not to blame in some way for enabling it to continue or not doing something to stop it. And it really is sad that many people in my state only want to argue about how Paterno is the victim here and shouldn't lose his god status when there is a list of abused kids who really are victims. Whatever we do, don't tear down a football deity by holding him accountable for his decisions or lack of action! He built a library! God status revoked, he's mortal.
Steve Parkin same here I doubt that he is a monster but he should’ve known what is going on you can’t be that idiotic to think that it’s not his place to know did he do the absolute minimal of what he’s supposed to do yes he should’ve went to the police first paterno would’ve have been a hero beyond what he was he would’ve been the biggest college sports hero of all time should Paterno be hated for what he did no should his greatness be questioned absolutely without a doubt
It took a while but there’s more facts & it turns out that Paterno didn’t know. The activist media created a narrative that hid some facts regarding his grand jury testimony. Matt Millen was right here.
@@Kevin-it4fh I think its one of those things where he probably did not want to believe it. Sandusky was a long time friend, etc. I know that I have at first rejected to believe certain things that seemed too impossible to be true before I finally accepted them. The difference is, the stuff that I had a hard time accepting was not on the level of child rape by a person that I was enabling, and secondly, I eventually accepted the truth. If one of my assistants reported what was reported to Paterno... "Well, I mentioned it once to somebody in charge and nothing came of it, so I did my part, now I'm just going to pretend it never happened" would not be good enough for me to absolve myself. It's a character test. At the end of the day, Joe Paterno is who had to live with this. I don't have to judge him, he judged himself. It obviously crushed him when the story broke. He probably wondered how football became so important that it wound up preventing him from doing the right thing. I doubt Joe Paterno would be okay with a statue honoring himself in light of what happened.
Almost 10 years later as an Ohio State fan remembering tattoo gate around that time, I was shocked cause it was a respected program and thought it was just a bunch of sham. Looking back now I lost alot of respect and gained hatred for Penn State.
...you felt for this guys? The guy who cared way more for the Pedophile and the guy who knew about the Pedophile but decided to not report what he knew. He cared way more for them, so ummm what about the Victims?
Caoch Paterno's conversation and action that should of come. Coach Sandusky I had a very terrible accusation brought against you and I have to call the Police and notify them of the allegations. I suggest you get an attorney and you are now put on leave as a coach and not allowed on campus until investigation is done. I pray that these thing s are not true and if they are may GOD have mercy on your soul and the boys who were violated.
@AnneLiesveld You are missing the point, Paterno didn't follow up on what was being done with Sandusky, PERIOD. I'm not saying he performed these sex acts on kids himself but, he did very little to stop it.
good to see someone close to it who starts off trying to be fair when talking about something that there is nothing fair about but then has to get honest I hope the rest do that
Sandusky is one hell of a manipulator. That man concealed his actions for years while being heavily involved with major organizations made up of thousands of people. I always see people talking online about Paterno like he was involved with Sandusky's actions... Paterno heard from McQueary about something he saw in the showers. He should have said to McQueary, "what did you do to stop the incident?" Maybe Paterno could be criticized for that, but the eyewitness is the most accountable here.
Penn State did not break any Ncaa Rules when this happened the players were punished for something they did not do which wasn't fair to them. It shouldd have been a state matter not a Ncaa matter
@Blue Skeptic dummy, he's saying that only Paterno and Sandusky should be charged by the law and that the players shouldn't have to face the punishments.
I was referring to your post where your reply was "Bingo!" to the guy that wrote "...all the News channels are owned by one group of people". Mind explaining who is that "group" of people?
Did anyone else get disgusted by this guys counterfeit emotions? He is either the worse judge of character I have ever seen, or he's in on it! He knew Sandusky for how long, and NEVER heard rumors of pedophilia? Have people become so naive and dumbed down that they actually buy any of this CRAP? Come on people, WAKE UP already.
I love that in one breath, Millen is making excuses for Paterno and trying to cast doubt on the facts of the situation, then when asked about Sandusky, he says something to the effect of not being able to see it coming because he knew the guy so well. Compelling case there, Matty.
Joe Pa reported to the Penn State university Police. What he should have done, was report it to the Pennsylvania State Police. Big difference between the two and at his age, he assumed that was enough, but the Penn state university Police clearly was a part of the cover-up, because they made it about image, reputation, recruiting and most of all MONEY!!!
.. What Fleury wants to tell those boys in this Penn State tragedy - the ones who have come forward, the ones who are trying to summon the courage, the ones who are suffering alone, the ones whom we will never know about - is don't quit before the miracle.
Wow, incredible. I have lived in the State College area for many of years now. For everyone who is bashing Millen obviously do not get what the Penn State family is. Penn State is more than a University. It is a lifestyle (and before all you immature people begin saying, "yeah, a pedophile lifestyle", try acting your age for once and liste). Penn State is a community. Once a Nittany Lion, more than a Nittany Lion. This is why Millen is upset, and why he cries. It is sad for alumni and all.
"...The University is a business to be run....there are so many things that need to be taken care". ~ Millen. Uh Matt...The University has the responsibility to do one thing, and one thing, only...EDUCATE! That's it, that's all, nothing more, nothing less.
Anybody that was informed of the information that he was privy to, needs to go straight to the police, and if not, take full responsibility for not doing so. Sorry Matt, and sorry Joe. Jerry Scumdusky needs to rot in prison, and Joe, along with all at Penn State with knowledge needed to go.
You have to grow up in a nation of a football team and the pride of those programs to understand this. Joe Paterno was a an icon in college football and this program was so great but this kills all of that. I grew up in Nebraska and if Osborne or Devaney was involved in something like this it would be devastating. That being said the issues of Penn State were sick and God only knows how wide this was. Those behind that whole issue should be punished to the extent of the law and pray to God that he forgives them for they have a special place waiting if the word is true.
wow, what an awful take hahaha. kinda reminds you of an SNL skit. “this is the united states of america” was this guy really trying to stick up for these guys?
I don't remember that. I do remember being a NU fan (now you know my alliance) knowing that the person who alledgedly saw stuff was going to be at the NU-PSU game. There might have been people on campus leadership wise "supporting him" but I doubt that most students now a days respect him. Plus, looking at it from the student perspective I can understand that I respect NU coaches so I can imagine the emotions I would feel if they were involved in this kind of mess. I can imagine that students
dont take this out of context........blaming paterno for all of this is like blaming ronald mcdonald because the hamburlar was a pedophile but the owners let the hamburlar hang around still, yes this sounds ludacris and im not saying it isnt but paterno was a coach and a familiar face, he did not run that place, he wasnt the president of penn state he brought the accusations to the people in charge and they dropped the ball. i know im going to get alot of stupid comments save them!!
seriously you have no right blaming me or my family we did not know about this till it got JOE PA fired when he had lung cancer then ending up dead...died of a broken heart..everyone in psu that are not fans or students treated Joe and his family like shit. and it is sick and wrong when he is already gone and people still talking down on him...anyway no one was protecting anyone but that policeman keeping it secret and not doing his job, never got fired. its stupid.
the only person to blame is Sandusky...Paterno should have been allowed to finish the season...ya he could of done more but if theres someone other than Sandusky to blame then is McQueary he should have gone to the police after it happened regardless of what Paterno said to him...also did the parents of these kids have no idea? Were they watchin the news when they first found out about this? If you can go 10 years or more and not know your kid was molested then they share some of the blame

the clarity is disgusting, and why do you keep saying my school ? i never went to that school nor am i affiliated w/ that school in anyway shape or form, so when you keep saying that you look like a tool, recruits ? i havent the slightest idea im not sure which part of im not a big football fan you are not understanding, could be all of them could be none of them either way that has nothing to do w/ what were talking about, dont look now but you just made it about football... checkmate mojito
I should not have made the comment and no I don't defend what happened but what did the freshman on campus do to deserve that or the person who is a math teacher or the grandchild of a former player who is dealing with watching a grandfather deal with that situation or the son of the more recent full time players. and it is NOT PED STATE AGAIN I REPEAT IT IS NOT PED STATE! I can't imagine how much these comments would offend an ACTUAL penn state student considering I am NOT one.
true, true. it's hard though, you must understand where big psu fans are coming from. we follow this guy for decades, look up to him like he's god and for all we know, he could be a fucking murderer. just shows that in this day and age, trust is common, but shouldn't be. this serves as a life lesson, but you must understand what penn state fans and students thought of when it happened, "this can't be true". "there must be someone else at fault". nope, just joepa and jerry sandusky.
@anderskl39692 That he was total scum but since he does know him as a close friend it is probably harder to call him slime than it is for most people on here. They won't be concerned about this story in another six months. He will be six months into the grief process of the death of a friend and will be six months further to resolution of figuring out the legal process involved in watching a close friend be involved in a sex scandal--not a celebrity or a website name a dear frnd
@vaneasy2338 heres the thing though if i were joe i probobly would have done the same thing to, he worked with this guy for how long? wouldn't you give one of the people you had worked with for that long the benefit of the doubt? As i said and a lot of people say that he didn't screw up. Joe obviously thought he had done the right thing at the time and dismissed it. Life is terrible, this world is screwed up beyond recognition. but we the ones who made it that way have to deal with it.
@GodRoseares should have said something. Im not seeing any justice again just one mans word against another mans word. And even if he knew he followed protocal, If anyone should be leaving here are the 3. The President of the University, The man who witnessed the act and didn't do anything, and The man who committed the crimes. This is using a very delicate issue and with misunderstandings others have created has caused large turmoil and the loss of a college football legend. A truly sad day.
By all accounts, Sandusky didn't tie anyone up and force them to have sex. These young men consented each time. Sandusky may be guilty of STATUTORY rape, but Joe Paterno has absoultely nothing to do with it. What was he suppose to say: "Hey school officials. Jerry is having consensual sex with young men". Seriously, some of you drama queens need to get a life.
It's a fact that Paterno didn't go to the cops right away, he only went to the ad. That's morally wrong imo. Paterno cared more about the program/his image than those poor kids or else he woulda gone to the cops asap. Millen just doesn't want to believe a figure he admired and looked up to for years made a huge mistake.
THERE ARE RULES JOE HAD TO FOLLOW HE COULD ONLY TELL A SPECIFIC PERSON, HE DID WHAT HE COULD DO, IF HE DID NOT FOLLOW RULES, YOU CAN BE FIRED. DUAH! AND NO HE WAS NOT MOST POWERFUL, THE PRESIDENT OF PSU IS TO BLAME FOR ALL THIS SHIT!! THE POLICE KEEPING IT PRIVET ALSO TO BLAME!
The Bottom line to me is that Joe Pa was in his 70's. The man was certainly not fit to run this program. I think Joe Pa is being persecuted without fairness. So, we all know as a matter of fact that he knew this? Wrong. Just wait and see the facts.
@andrelebaron No He is a Pennsylvania State Alumni. Listen to him talk he says he was a FOOTBALL player and no that isn't the end all be all, but I that means in the 1970s and 1980s he cared for JP and JS.
@@johnherney4093 for starters defending a person who harbored a pedophile, then constantly saying taking emotion out when he himself clearly has emotional ties to those coaches and the university
I’m a Ohio State fan I have no issue with Matt Millen a very passionate man. Listen Joe was naive. He did tell his boss but should have done more. It upsets me that people treat Joe worse then the School President, The AD, Mike McQuary or Jerry Sandusky. The President & AD knew something happened. Worse McQuary walked in on a incident. Get the guy off the kid & scream for help so people come running, don’t give me I had to talk to my father about what to do. Now the big thing that few people understand Joe Pa wasn’t friendly when Sandusky they just worked on the same staff the misconception is they were friends no they weren’t ask anyone around that school. Joe was the Head Coach he ran practices but Sandusky ran the defense & the meetings of that unit. If you know football the offense & defense watch separate film in separate rooms I guarantee you when Sandusky was running the defensive meetings Joe wasn’t there & would appear probably stick his head in the door saying “Coach game plan for the game going ok????” This idea that Joe & Sandusky were such good friends & that was part of the cover up is ridiculous.
this is ridiculous, I cant believe Matt Millen would seriously overlook the bigger picture here and speak the way he has, especially when he said "im sure Joe Paterno is feeling the same way right now" uh NO, INCORRECT, he probaby felt that way decades ago upon initially learning of Sanduskys horrible crimes and yet, apparently didnt feel terrible enough to take any damn stand for it. And for Matt Millen to not enough tread carefully enough to recognize that at the end of the day, sports and other non essential life matters play zero importance towards relinquishing the trauma and impact that Sandusky laid onto his victims, and those people, above all else deserve justice and recognition. Penn state makes me sick.
Kyong Hansen u know u make me sick I had to go thru bad times at school just because of this and ur a bitch u have no idea what it's like ur a big bitch who knows nothing about this
Should Joe Paterno done more yes but he done what he should have done in a minimum capacity should he be fired for doing what he supposed to do in a minimum sense no but should he be fired for letting it go for many years later yes because he could have walked up to him during practice and say you got to go leave the kid with the team and just go home I'll drop the kid at home when practice ends it could have been that easy
Doug Robb okay so answer this question dumb fuck you would let Jerry Sandusky babysit your kids or better yet would you let Jerry Sandusky be a PE teacher at your kids middle school if the answer is yes then I'll pray for u
It's pretty simple. A sick deviant (sandusky) was seen doing something despicable. Paterno was told. He went to campus officials who he assumed would do the right thing. They didn't. Because they didn't fire sandusky, paterno, a man in his seventies, thinks an investigation was conducted, and therefore assumes it was nothing and kept sandusky around. Of course Paterno could've gone to the police, but he thought campus officials would do that if something had happened. He wasn't GOD like everyone thought. He was just a popular and massively influential coach. He did what he thought he should do. In retrospect, of course he could've done more. But he is not the evil here. That is Sandusky.
Bottom line the first case was a damn scam and set up...and that is why the victim was bullied in the school b/c all this shit didn't end with him when it started with him in the beginning, his mom should be sued.. for not doing shit. OH AND IF THE SECOND MILE KNEW ABOUT THE disorder Sandusky has. HE SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN HIRED IN SECOND MILE AND HE WOULD HAVE NEVER MET ANY OF THE KIDS!
Gary Schultz was the head of Penn State Police. Paterno did think he was doing enough at the time by reporting up the chain, which is what he was supposed to do. When nothing happened... MAYBE then he should have acted further--but I think the real burden was in his superior's hands. He was a figurehead, a face for Penn State, but in the end his colleagues likely thought the same about him-- in essence, a overly proud, dottering old fool.
It goes to show you that you cannot trust anyone with your children, its so sickening, these were children, a man took advantage of children in the worse possible way and people basically let this sick man run about with children and didnt think twice about what they felt, just tryn to cover up and protect the university thats why people are so angry at both the administration and coach paterno
@TheAngeltoDemon Course then, alot of it too as a NU fan who doesn't pay alot of attention to anything with football that isn't NU I tend to not be as aware of other teams outside of my realm that don't constantly play us as a result of being a part of Big-12 and Big-10 teams tend to play a whole different group of teams if I understand correctly. Just getting used to the big 12 deal. I don't even remembe when Big 12 was switched into by NU!
Don't cal it "ped" state for the staff person in the math department, don't call it that for the person who was a freshman last year who (12 years ago) was 6, for the senior who had a stressful senior year. those are a few of the people not responsible for "ped state" and it is GIVEN a reason otherwise. When you are being picky, please grammar check
I feel bad for victim one b/c of how his family treated him, and his dad was never there, that is why he was happy, he was getting presents, when Jerry stopped getting him gifts and mom money they told police the rape story and his mom started bragging. THAT IS SICK. I hope one day that gets out and his mom goes to jail. JERRY WAS GUILTY SO IT IS FINE HE IS BEHIND BARS SO IT IS WAY BETTER NOW. I feel bad for all the other victims and I hate that he did that to those poor kids.
@metalrules16 Husker fan here but all you have to do to imagine Millen's emotions base is to imagine being in your 40's and watching a 70 something coach be accused of such things 15 years ago. and before you go and say "I can imagine if my coach would be accused of such things I would be done with him instantaneously" I ask you "Which coach/teacher would you be willing to watch be accused of such thing?" Like an actual coach or teacher not like someone else's on tv?
Are you sick? Joe has an amazing legacy as a coach for the length of time he coached, He wasn't even all that great what did he win 2 or 3 national championships in 50+ years and then the last 10 or so years he was just a figure head as he was not even calling MOST of the plays anymore i dont understand why but i realize that he was a next to god in pa i cant help but think that putting a stop to all of this when he had the chance wouldve just pushed him over the top i guess i just dont get it
@TheAngeltoDemon TOTALLY FINE! Givin' you some serious youtube crap. :) I knew you wanted me to google it so you said so! :) What is so wierd about this clip as a NU person is I am realizing that I am a NU person who has followed big 12 and doesn't have a clue who or when the last time that Penn State played anyone-- I recognize JP with respect to Penn State but that is about all. Very wierd to watch all this come out right as I am starting to be aware of PSU.
felt alot of hate knowing that a person passed themselves off as a leader and is now living in a yuck way (or has been) I totally get what you are saying about thinking that it is tacky at best if JP was at fault to have him back but just think about what it would be like to feel those feelings towards a high school teacher when you were that age or if you are still that age currently. Can't be fun to feel yuck towards someone you called a friend.
True. I agree with you about that. What bugs me most isn't that every senior now had a horrid year it is that they are doing (like all college students on campus' everywhere doing good things and of course media makes no attention there and then this happens and non-stop attention and while I agree with that I think about how many things that school is known for that get zero media and they will forever be known for that. Jokes aren't funny!! AT ALL.
Instead of wasting valuable time with these jealous haters we should ban together and ask the county to properly honor Joe with a special rememberance day. That would be fitting since he had done so much good for the students who attended Penn State. Always remember Joseph Paterno and his family.
@granolanutpunch Everyone talks about this campus coach was his family as though it is so surprising. JP and JS were family because MM connected with them. That is as deep as caring about your high school english or math teacher. I have people I worked with for 1-3 years and I care alot about them. I count it a priviledge to be able to to this day have a connection to a high school music teacher through church. that is the closest I have to a long term connection of a coach.
@AnneLiesveld in the street or however he put it. I believe he said his viscereal reaction (I believe visceral means GUT reaction) is to disassemble JS and not put him back together ala humpty dumpty I was like OMG. that is the most anger I have seen from PSU towards JS. I am guessing it is somehow easier for MM age bracket to be that way as they have more of a sepration than current students do. They connect so much (I believe) with JS that I bet it is hard to see him as evil.
Put your feelings to the side Detriot Fans Matt Millen this is not about your sorry football team It was sorry before Millien came in. But he has a big heart and i give him a standing O for doing his job i always liked him being a broadcaster
That is what I am talking about. People say sports isn't important but there are so many layers to this that have nothing to do with sports-that is what I have always said. This is so much more about Millen thnking he had Paterno et al figured out and that dissolving into a trivial mess than anything else. :( I am imagining it being agonizing at best. Our former football player is married and I believe has 20 something kids.
@vaneasy2338 i want to hear about this as well there are a few things that make me angry though when people say this "You support Joe Pa...Then u support child abuse?" and if you looked at the facts you would find out that that accusation is completely out of context and wrong. Just because he didn't do something because he either didn't want to know or didn't know how to deal with it means nothing. He was told! How many times do you say im going to kill you to a friend? Should i take you
the investigation was done by former fbi agents and federal prosecutors. the man who headed the team was a former fbi director and federal judge. i am relatively certain that the facts they found are quite reliable.
Why do you think he said "I wish I had done more"? That implies that he could of done more and didn't. That's really all anyone who is a completely delusional "JoePa" fanatic would need to know to realize what took place here.
@lolee101 True. I wonder what He meant by saying that. Part of me feels like it is his body's way to deny that this happened to a respected friend. Ya know, like I hear him saying that JS needs to DIE (summed up his thought from that part of video but it is like he doesn't want to entirely rage on him like most people would since he isn't just a face on the internet but a friend. I have no doubt he has anger towards JS though. When He said right on camera he wanted to take it out
I think it's just as sad that law officials swept the first occurrence under the rug yet everyone had no problem picking on an 85 year old man who probably had a bigger positive impact on the world in one year than most of us could hope to have in a lifetime. If you've never been to State College/University Park to see even a tiny bit of impact that this man has had on the immediate community there you should shut it. He lived to a higher moral standard than most of us could ever hope to.
Friendly NU fan here and I can appreciate your comments. Friendly: You don't even have to be a HUGE sports fan to feel. This interview shows the hard of a 48ish year old man feeling like his entire "grade" of school respected him. I mean, Bawstin I see you putting that you saw this guy as a "God" but I imagine all it would take is for someone like Matt to know that he respected his former "boss." I would imagine that it is alot less than a God level or I have a "god" like respect for former
@AnneLiesveld It is as you say about his world unraveling because PSU became his foundation but also his foundation was that JP and JS were good people. Do you really think if JS did this kind of stuff he acted "evil" around Millen?
@lolee101 He probably isn't as much confused as when I hear him talking about wanting to talk about obliterating JS it is also about talking about how much He respected him in the past. I am guessing he is feeling the equivalent to what it might feel like to be in your 50s and realize a teacher in their 80s was accused of defending such things in their 70s.
@AnneLiesveld were coaches on the campus of, he hung out on campus with them, he connected with them as men, trusted them as father figures. This isn't about seeing them be "not perfect" I am sure they could get divorced and he would still respect them. this is SO MUCH BIGGER (I bet) for him! I don't know his feelings but I could imagine seeing something like this about a hs or college coach and imagine how i would feel. I STILL TO THIS DAY respect most of my hs teachers. I can rlt
@granolanutpunch It probably was very similar to family. When you figure he was first around with them in 76 that is alot of years of friendship. and talk about trying to figure out the emotions. I hear support of a coach in the riots on campus but I also see MM having an attitude about JS but even while saying that he admits he felt less than good about JS but even while saying that he sometimes admit the emotions get the best of him or however he put it--shockingly they do
@TheAngeltoDemon LOL about the punch. will check it out. :) I will google it since you said google it 3 times in twelve words. lol. :) Love your thoughts about JS. I am a new (growing) fan of PSU watching the coverage of their school and hoping against hope that this problem will resolve itself over time. Husker fan who quite recently started paying attention to this situation. Not sure which school you support PSU or another one. :) Always fun to have a team to cheer on!!!
@TheAngeltoDemon Don't know what punch you are talking about but clearly MM had emotions about JS and what he would do with him if allegations are proved true. I don't think he would give him a chance to answer he would just obliterate the guy point BLANK!
@@CoolHandLuke813 Its cool...I literally just found out about all of this and I guess seeing how the Penn State Student body reacted to Paterno being Fired, and kind of just ignoring the Victim...i was like D@MN...but its good, stay blessed tho 🙏🏽
Yea send a quality college student a message that leadership on campus determines whether they are quality or not. Send 4 years of work down the drain. that is fair.
@torontothegood feeling like He respected them as integrity-filled strong responsible men and they are no more that but he remembers them as being all that so is emotional. He looked very genuinely emotional--even struggling with eye contact with his co-worker eyes as a intervewee.
"He's been in my home", translates to, "he's been around my children". What a horrifying thing to realize, that this man, whom you consider a friend, is the *worst* kind of monster. Worse yet? He's been around *your* kids. I can't even imagine.
Matt Millen has nothing to apologize for. I've always respected him as a broadcaster, and now I respect him even more. His heart was truly broken for Sandusky's victims, and also for the damage done to coach Paterno and the Penn St program. He was honest, emotional, and truly horrified by the whole situation.
No damage was done to Paterno.
@@jeffpedler6094 His reputation is forever tarnished. Deservedly so.

Matt Millen was obviously sickened and shocked by what Jerry Sandusky did. He was emotional. But his point was that even though it was an emotional issue, even for him, those emotions should not drive people to make other decisions. It was like when he said that part of him wanted to "take care of it" himself...he stepped back and said that doing so would be the wrong thing. Divorcing yourself of emotions when making decisions doesn't mean you can't have emotions. You just need to TEMPORARILY put those emotions aside and be rational.

Same too. I remember it well. I was my freshman year in high school and I could remember watching Dancing With the Stars with the family and I overheard my mom and older brother talking about an assistant coach at Penn State raping boys and I was like: “This can’t be Penn State?” And sure enough it was. The next when I was in intervention class with my brother and he was talking about it with the teacher who so happened to be my football coach and I talked about it with him and I said I thought it was a bunch of BS and the NCAA is like: “Now that we already bullied Ohio State long enough, who’s next on the list so that we can give Michigan a fighting chance at a national title let alone a Big 10 conference title?” Coach gave that are you kidding look and said “Do you know what that guy did? He should be shot” I didn’t know about the scandal well enough back then and looking back I feel very stupid for saying those remarks. And ever since the scandal, I’ve hated Penn State and every single thing about them to the core. Go Bucks
I don't think Paterno was a monster or supported child sexual assault... but I cannot make an argument where he's not to blame in some way for enabling it to continue or not doing something to stop it. And it really is sad that many people in my state only want to argue about how Paterno is the victim here and shouldn't lose his god status when there is a list of abused kids who really are victims. Whatever we do, don't tear down a football deity by holding him accountable for his decisions or lack of action! He built a library!
God status revoked, he's mortal.
Steve Parkin same here I doubt that he is a monster but he should’ve known what is going on you can’t be that idiotic to think that it’s not his place to know did he do the absolute minimal of what he’s supposed to do yes he should’ve went to the police first paterno would’ve have been a hero beyond what he was he would’ve been the biggest college sports hero of all time should Paterno be hated for what he did no should his greatness be questioned absolutely without a doubt
It took a while but there’s more facts & it turns out that Paterno didn’t know. The activist media created a narrative that hid some facts regarding his grand jury testimony. Matt Millen was right here.
Hows he not a monster. He enabled child rape.
I wonder if he just refused to believe it
@@Kevin-it4fh I think its one of those things where he probably did not want to believe it. Sandusky was a long time friend, etc. I know that I have at first rejected to believe certain things that seemed too impossible to be true before I finally accepted them. The difference is, the stuff that I had a hard time accepting was not on the level of child rape by a person that I was enabling, and secondly, I eventually accepted the truth. If one of my assistants reported what was reported to Paterno... "Well, I mentioned it once to somebody in charge and nothing came of it, so I did my part, now I'm just going to pretend it never happened" would not be good enough for me to absolve myself. It's a character test. At the end of the day, Joe Paterno is who had to live with this. I don't have to judge him, he judged himself. It obviously crushed him when the story broke. He probably wondered how football became so important that it wound up preventing him from doing the right thing. I doubt Joe Paterno would be okay with a statue honoring himself in light of what happened.
4 years later this still hurts
+cbone72 Imagine Sandusky's victims, they'll carry that pain until they die.
7 years later and there are people in and around Penn State who STILL defend Paterno.
Almost 10 years later as an Ohio State fan remembering tattoo gate around that time, I was shocked cause it was a respected program and thought it was just a bunch of sham. Looking back now I lost alot of respect and gained hatred for Penn State.
@@Benjimac379 can’t blame an entire university for the actions of a few
...you felt for this guys? The guy who cared way more for the Pedophile and the guy who knew about the Pedophile but decided to not report what he knew. He cared way more for them, so ummm what about the Victims?
@davemroz27 Damn, nevermind I just read the grand jury report. He testified he knew. It doesn't look good for him.
Caoch Paterno's conversation and action that should of come. Coach Sandusky I had a very terrible accusation brought against you and I have to call the Police and notify them of the allegations. I suggest you get an attorney and you are now put on leave as a coach and not allowed on campus until investigation is done. I pray that these thing s are not true and if they are may GOD have mercy on your soul and the boys who were violated.
@AnneLiesveld You are missing the point, Paterno didn't follow up on what was being done with Sandusky, PERIOD. I'm not saying he performed these sex acts on kids himself but, he did very little to stop it.
good to see someone close to it who starts off trying to be fair when talking about something that there is nothing fair about but then has to get honest I hope the rest do that
Sandusky is one hell of a manipulator. That man concealed his actions for years while being heavily involved with major organizations made up of thousands of people. I always see people talking online about Paterno like he was involved with Sandusky's actions... Paterno heard from McQueary about something he saw in the showers. He should have said to McQueary, "what did you do to stop the incident?" Maybe Paterno could be criticized for that, but the eyewitness is the most accountable here.
Penn State did not break any Ncaa Rules when this happened the players were punished for something they did not do which wasn't fair to them. It shouldd have been a state matter not a Ncaa matter
@Blue Skeptic dummy, he's saying that only Paterno and Sandusky should be charged by the law and that the players shouldn't have to face the punishments.
I was referring to your post where your reply was "Bingo!" to the guy that wrote "...all the News channels are owned by one group of people". Mind explaining who is that "group" of people?
Did anyone else get disgusted by this guys counterfeit emotions? He is either the worse judge of character I have ever seen, or he's in on it! He knew Sandusky for how long, and NEVER heard rumors of pedophilia? Have people become so naive and dumbed down that they actually buy any of this CRAP? Come on people, WAKE UP already.
I love that in one breath, Millen is making excuses for Paterno and trying to cast doubt on the facts of the situation, then when asked about Sandusky, he says something to the effect of not being able to see it coming because he knew the guy so well. Compelling case there, Matty.
if i was the espn reporter i would of asked Matt Millen did Jerry Sandusky try to take you to the showers
God bless you, Matt Millen. You can see the absolute pain and anguish on his face.
God bless another man who turns a blind eye? GTFO.
Joe Pa reported to the Penn State university Police. What he should have done, was report it to the Pennsylvania State Police. Big difference between the two and at his age, he assumed that was enough, but the Penn state university Police clearly was a part of the cover-up, because they made it about image, reputation, recruiting and most of all MONEY!!!
.. What Fleury wants to tell those boys in this Penn State tragedy - the ones who have come forward, the ones who are trying to summon the courage, the ones who are suffering alone, the ones whom we will never know about - is don't quit before the miracle.
Wow, incredible. I have lived in the State College area for many of years now. For everyone who is bashing Millen obviously do not get what the Penn State family is. Penn State is more than a University. It is a lifestyle (and before all you immature people begin saying, "yeah, a pedophile lifestyle", try acting your age for once and liste). Penn State is a community. Once a Nittany Lion, more than a Nittany Lion. This is why Millen is upset, and why he cries. It is sad for alumni and all.
"...The University is a business to be run....there are so many things that need to be taken care". ~ Millen. Uh Matt...The University has the responsibility to do one thing, and one thing, only...EDUCATE! That's it, that's all, nothing more, nothing less.
Anybody that was informed of the information that he was privy to, needs to go straight to the police, and if not, take full responsibility for not doing so. Sorry Matt, and sorry Joe. Jerry Scumdusky needs to rot in prison, and Joe, along with all at Penn State with knowledge needed to go.
You have to grow up in a nation of a football team and the pride of those programs to understand this. Joe Paterno was a an icon in college football and this program was so great but this kills all of that. I grew up in Nebraska and if Osborne or Devaney was involved in something like this it would be devastating. That being said the issues of Penn State were sick and God only knows how wide this was. Those behind that whole issue should be punished to the extent of the law and pray to God that he forgives them for they have a special place waiting if the word is true.
Seems to me Matt Millen would not have done anything either in the same position. That is what I infer. Anyone else?
As soon as she brings up that Millen is a parent and a grandfather, you can see Millen wince.
2:25 Matt Millen went straight Randy Marsh 😂 "IM SORRY I THOUGHT THIS WAS AMERICA"
wow, what an awful take hahaha. kinda reminds you of an SNL skit. “this is the united states of america” was this guy really trying to stick up for these guys?
Send Sandusky to prison so he can feel what those 8 young boys felt!
I don't remember that. I do remember being a NU fan (now you know my alliance) knowing that the person who alledgedly saw stuff was going to be at the NU-PSU game. There might have been people on campus leadership wise "supporting him" but I doubt that most students now a days respect him. Plus, looking at it from the student perspective I can understand that I respect NU coaches so I can imagine the emotions I would feel if they were involved in this kind of mess. I can imagine that students
You guys should be ashamed of yourselves for clowning the university for what the coaches have done.
dont take this out of context........blaming paterno for all of this is like blaming ronald mcdonald because the hamburlar was a pedophile but the owners let the hamburlar hang around still, yes this sounds ludacris and im not saying it isnt but paterno was a coach and a familiar face, he did not run that place, he wasnt the president of penn state he brought the accusations to the people in charge and they dropped the ball. i know im going to get alot of stupid comments save them!!
seriously you have no right blaming me or my family we did not know about this till it got JOE PA fired when he had lung cancer then ending up dead...died of a broken heart..everyone in psu that are not fans or students treated Joe and his family like shit. and it is sick and wrong when he is already gone and people still talking down on him...anyway no one was protecting anyone but that policeman keeping it secret and not doing his job, never got fired. its stupid.
the only person to blame is Sandusky...Paterno should have been allowed to finish the season...ya he could of done more but if theres someone other than Sandusky to blame then is McQueary he should have gone to the police after it happened regardless of what Paterno said to him...also did the parents of these kids have no idea? Were they watchin the news when they first found out about this? If you can go 10 years or more and not know your kid was molested then they share some of the blame
the clarity is disgusting, and why do you keep saying my school ? i never went to that school nor am i affiliated w/ that school in anyway shape or form, so when you keep saying that you look like a tool, recruits ? i havent the slightest idea im not sure which part of im not a big football fan you are not understanding, could be all of them could be none of them either way that has nothing to do w/ what were talking about, dont look now but you just made it about football... checkmate mojito
I should not have made the comment and no I don't defend what happened but what did the freshman on campus do to deserve that or the person who is a math teacher or the grandchild of a former player who is dealing with watching a grandfather deal with that situation or the son of the more recent full time players. and it is NOT PED STATE AGAIN I REPEAT IT IS NOT PED STATE! I can't imagine how much these comments would offend an ACTUAL penn state student considering I am NOT one.
true, true. it's hard though, you must understand where big psu fans are coming from. we follow this guy for decades, look up to him like he's god and for all we know, he could be a fucking murderer. just shows that in this day and age, trust is common, but shouldn't be. this serves as a life lesson, but you must understand what penn state fans and students thought of when it happened, "this can't be true". "there must be someone else at fault". nope, just joepa and jerry sandusky.
@anderskl39692 That he was total scum but since he does know him as a close friend it is probably harder to call him slime than it is for most people on here. They won't be concerned about this story in another six months. He will be six months into the grief process of the death of a friend and will be six months further to resolution of figuring out the legal process involved in watching a close friend be involved in a sex scandal--not a celebrity or a website name a dear frnd
@vaneasy2338 heres the thing though if i were joe i probobly would have done the same thing to, he worked with this guy for how long? wouldn't you give one of the people you had worked with for that long the benefit of the doubt? As i said and a lot of people say that he didn't screw up. Joe obviously thought he had done the right thing at the time and dismissed it. Life is terrible, this world is screwed up beyond recognition. but we the ones who made it that way have to deal with it.
@GodRoseares should have said something. Im not seeing any justice again just one mans word against another mans word. And even if he knew he followed protocal, If anyone should be leaving here are the 3. The President of the University, The man who witnessed the act and didn't do anything, and The man who committed the crimes. This is using a very delicate issue and with misunderstandings others have created has caused large turmoil and the loss of a college football legend. A truly sad day.
This guy used the words "divorce yourself" too many times in this interview. What's that about?
By all accounts, Sandusky didn't tie anyone up and force them to have sex. These young men consented each time. Sandusky may be guilty of STATUTORY rape, but Joe Paterno has absoultely nothing to do with it. What was he suppose to say: "Hey school officials. Jerry is having consensual sex with young men". Seriously, some of you drama queens need to get a life.
It's a fact that Paterno didn't go to the cops right away, he only went to the ad. That's morally wrong imo. Paterno cared more about the program/his image than those poor kids or else he woulda gone to the cops asap. Millen just doesn't want to believe a figure he admired and looked up to for years made a huge mistake.
THERE ARE RULES JOE HAD TO FOLLOW HE COULD ONLY TELL A SPECIFIC PERSON, HE DID WHAT HE COULD DO, IF HE DID NOT FOLLOW RULES, YOU CAN BE FIRED. DUAH! AND NO HE WAS NOT MOST POWERFUL, THE PRESIDENT OF PSU IS TO BLAME FOR ALL THIS SHIT!! THE POLICE KEEPING IT PRIVET ALSO TO BLAME!
The Bottom line to me is that Joe Pa was in his 70's. The man was certainly not fit to run this program. I think Joe Pa is being persecuted without fairness. So, we all know as a matter of fact that he knew this? Wrong. Just wait and see the facts.
@andrelebaron No He is a Pennsylvania State Alumni. Listen to him talk he says he was a FOOTBALL player and no that isn't the end all be all, but I that means in the 1970s and 1980s he cared for JP and JS.
In 2022 this is an awful take by Millen
How
@@johnherney4093 for starters defending a person who harbored a pedophile, then constantly saying taking emotion out when he himself clearly has emotional ties to those coaches and the university
right? it’s like hilariously bad.
I meant to say I should not have put the comment about grammar. that was rude but people who say "ped state" are about as mature as a 3 year old.
i can say that Matt is one of the most entertaining and emotional people on TV covering sports. Keep doing what your doing.
please don't tell me you like ohio state?!?!?......and btw just because you use big words that doesn't make you smart or right
Wait a second...who is this "group of people"? Almost sounds like we are starting to get in to conspiracy theory territory.
Congrats media. You destroyed another hero with your relentless attack. Our society sucks.
i have seen you on like 10 different videos if you dont like the greatest university on the planet then stop commenting
@tmagicsucks22 ?? what you mean by that. if you don't believe me he is married to billie miller my aunt, (my moms sister)
I’m a Ohio State fan I have no issue with Matt Millen a very passionate man. Listen Joe was naive. He did tell his boss but should have done more. It upsets me that people treat Joe worse then the School President, The AD, Mike McQuary or Jerry Sandusky. The President & AD knew something happened. Worse McQuary walked in on a incident. Get the guy off the kid & scream for help so people come running, don’t give me I had to talk to my father about what to do. Now the big thing that few people understand Joe Pa wasn’t friendly when Sandusky they just worked on the same staff the misconception is they were friends no they weren’t ask anyone around that school.
Joe was the Head Coach he ran practices but Sandusky ran the defense & the meetings of that unit. If you know football the offense & defense watch separate film in separate rooms I guarantee you when Sandusky was running the defensive meetings Joe wasn’t there & would appear probably stick his head in the door saying “Coach game plan for the game going ok????”
This idea that Joe & Sandusky were such good friends & that was part of the cover up is ridiculous.
this is ridiculous, I cant believe Matt Millen would seriously overlook the bigger picture here and speak the way he has, especially when he said "im sure Joe Paterno is feeling the same way right now" uh NO, INCORRECT, he probaby felt that way decades ago upon initially learning of Sanduskys horrible crimes and yet, apparently didnt feel terrible enough to take any damn stand for it. And for Matt Millen to not enough tread carefully enough to recognize that at the end of the day, sports and other non essential life matters play zero importance towards relinquishing the trauma and impact that Sandusky laid onto his victims, and those people, above all else deserve justice and recognition. Penn state makes me sick.
Kyong Hansen u know u make me sick I had to go thru bad times at school just because of this and ur a bitch u have no idea what it's like ur a big bitch who knows nothing about this
sorry i made a mistake ok? You know people make spelling errors, no one is perfect.
Matt Millen doesn't 'break down'. Lies to get people to watch your video. DISLIKE
Why was there little kids at Penn state it's a college?
there is nothing that joe didnt know about psu, or whats going on.
Should Joe Paterno done more yes but he done what he should have done in a minimum capacity should he be fired for doing what he supposed to do in a minimum sense no but should he be fired for letting it go for many years later yes because he could have walked up to him during practice and say you got to go leave the kid with the team and just go home I'll drop the kid at home when practice ends it could have been that easy
Doug Robb okay so answer this question dumb fuck you would let Jerry Sandusky babysit your kids or better yet would you let Jerry Sandusky be a PE teacher at your kids middle school if the answer is yes then I'll pray for u
The local police and the DA had known about this and did nothing so to throw all of the blame on Paterno is a cop out and a cowardly act...
Matt Millen: 0-11.
It's pretty simple. A sick deviant (sandusky) was seen doing something despicable. Paterno was told. He went to campus officials who he assumed would do the right thing. They didn't. Because they didn't fire sandusky, paterno, a man in his seventies, thinks an investigation was conducted, and therefore assumes it was nothing and kept sandusky around. Of course Paterno could've gone to the police, but he thought campus officials would do that if something had happened. He wasn't GOD like everyone thought. He was just a popular and massively influential coach. He did what he thought he should do. In retrospect, of course he could've done more. But he is not the evil here. That is Sandusky.
.an oaf as usual. Should be banned from the state of Michigan..
@dontknomuch lolol...wtf does that have to do with this ????
What is he talking about, is he siding with Sandusky or not
Bottom line the first case was a damn scam and set up...and that is why the victim was bullied in the school b/c all this shit didn't end with him when it started with him in the beginning, his mom should be sued.. for not doing shit. OH AND IF THE SECOND MILE KNEW ABOUT THE disorder Sandusky has. HE SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN HIRED IN SECOND MILE AND HE WOULD HAVE NEVER MET ANY OF THE KIDS!
nice to see some real emotion on the news
I'd have to say that Matt Millen is my favourite Raider of all time as a personality and Football brain,it's hard to top him.
Gary Schultz was the head of Penn State Police. Paterno did think he was doing enough at the time by reporting up the chain, which is what he was supposed to do.
When nothing happened... MAYBE then he should have acted further--but I think the real burden was in his superior's hands. He was a figurehead, a face for Penn State, but in the end his colleagues likely thought the same about him-- in essence, a overly proud, dottering old fool.
I developed more respect for him after this
Wow...you guys cared way more about Paterno and Sandusky then the Victims.
Okay...alright...I see you guys...
That comment didn’t age well
Matt Millen is a stand up guy. Glad he spoke from the heart.
It goes to show you that you cannot trust anyone with your children, its so sickening, these were children, a man took advantage of children in the worse possible way and people basically let this sick man run about with children and didnt think twice about what they felt, just tryn to cover up and protect the university thats why people are so angry at both the administration and coach paterno
@TheAngeltoDemon Course then, alot of it too as a NU fan who doesn't pay alot of attention to anything with football that isn't NU I tend to not be as aware of other teams outside of my realm that don't constantly play us as a result of being a part of Big-12 and Big-10 teams tend to play a whole different group of teams if I understand correctly. Just getting used to the big 12 deal. I don't even remembe when Big 12 was switched into by NU!
Don't cal it "ped" state for the staff person in the math department, don't call it that for the person who was a freshman last year who (12 years ago) was 6, for the senior who had a stressful senior year. those are a few of the people not responsible for "ped state" and it is GIVEN a reason otherwise. When you are being picky, please grammar check
I feel bad for victim one b/c of how his family treated him, and his dad was never there, that is why he was happy, he was getting presents, when Jerry stopped getting him gifts and mom money they told police the rape story and his mom started bragging. THAT IS SICK. I hope one day that gets out and his mom goes to jail. JERRY WAS GUILTY SO IT IS FINE HE IS BEHIND BARS SO IT IS WAY BETTER NOW. I feel bad for all the other victims and I hate that he did that to those poor kids.
@metalrules16 Husker fan here but all you have to do to imagine Millen's emotions base is to imagine being in your 40's and watching a 70 something coach be accused of such things 15 years ago. and before you go and say "I can imagine if my coach would be accused of such things I would be done with him instantaneously" I ask you "Which coach/teacher would you be willing to watch be accused of such thing?" Like an actual coach or teacher not like someone else's on tv?
Am I the only one who notices that Joe Paterno actually looked and even sounded like the actor Joe Pesce ( Casino,Goodfellas,etc) ?
Are you sick? Joe has an amazing legacy as a coach for the length of time he coached, He wasn't even all that great what did he win 2 or 3 national championships in 50+ years and then the last 10 or so years he was just a figure head as he was not even calling MOST of the plays anymore i dont understand why but i realize that he was a next to god in pa i cant help but think that putting a stop to all of this when he had the chance wouldve just pushed him over the top i guess i just dont get it
@TheAngeltoDemon TOTALLY FINE! Givin' you some serious youtube crap. :) I knew you wanted me to google it so you said so! :) What is so wierd about this clip as a NU person is I am realizing that I am a NU person who has followed big 12 and doesn't have a clue who or when the last time that Penn State played anyone-- I recognize JP with respect to Penn State but that is about all. Very wierd to watch all this come out right as I am starting to be aware of PSU.
felt alot of hate knowing that a person passed themselves off as a leader and is now living in a yuck way (or has been) I totally get what you are saying about thinking that it is tacky at best if JP was at fault to have him back but just think about what it would be like to feel those feelings towards a high school teacher when you were that age or if you are still that age currently. Can't be fun to feel yuck towards someone you called a friend.
True. I agree with you about that. What bugs me most isn't that every senior now had a horrid year it is that they are doing (like all college students on campus' everywhere doing good things and of course media makes no attention there and then this happens and non-stop attention and while I agree with that I think about how many things that school is known for that get zero media and they will forever be known for that. Jokes aren't funny!! AT ALL.
Instead of wasting valuable time with these jealous haters we should ban together and ask the county to properly honor Joe with a special rememberance day. That would be fitting since he had done so much good for the students who attended Penn State. Always remember Joseph Paterno and his family.
@granolanutpunch Everyone talks about this campus coach was his family as though it is so surprising. JP and JS were family because MM connected with them. That is as deep as caring about your high school english or math teacher. I have people I worked with for 1-3 years and I care alot about them. I count it a priviledge to be able to to this day have a connection to a high school music teacher through church. that is the closest I have to a long term connection of a coach.
@AnneLiesveld in the street or however he put it. I believe he said his viscereal reaction (I believe visceral means GUT reaction) is to disassemble JS and not put him back together ala humpty dumpty I was like OMG. that is the most anger I have seen from PSU towards JS. I am guessing it is somehow easier for MM age bracket to be that way as they have more of a sepration than current students do. They connect so much (I believe) with JS that I bet it is hard to see him as evil.
Put your feelings to the side Detriot Fans Matt Millen this is not about your sorry football team It was sorry before Millien came in. But he has a big heart and i give him a standing O for doing his job i always liked him being a broadcaster
That is what I am talking about. People say sports isn't important but there are so many layers to this that have nothing to do with sports-that is what I have always said. This is so much more about Millen thnking he had Paterno et al figured out and that dissolving into a trivial mess than anything else. :( I am imagining it being agonizing at best. Our former football player is married and I believe has 20 something kids.
@vaneasy2338 i want to hear about this as well there are a few things that make me angry though when people say this "You support Joe Pa...Then u support child abuse?" and if you looked at the facts you would find out that that accusation is completely out of context and wrong. Just because he didn't do something because he either didn't want to know or didn't know how to deal with it means nothing. He was told! How many times do you say im going to kill you to a friend? Should i take you
the investigation was done by former fbi agents and federal prosecutors. the man who headed the team was a former fbi director and federal judge. i am relatively certain that the facts they found are quite reliable.
Why do you think he said "I wish I had done more"? That implies that he could of done more and didn't. That's really all anyone who is a completely delusional "JoePa" fanatic would need to know to realize what took place here.
@lolee101 True. I wonder what He meant by saying that. Part of me feels like it is his body's way to deny that this happened to a respected friend. Ya know, like I hear him saying that JS needs to DIE (summed up his thought from that part of video but it is like he doesn't want to entirely rage on him like most people would since he isn't just a face on the internet but a friend. I have no doubt he has anger towards JS though. When He said right on camera he wanted to take it out
I think it's just as sad that law officials swept the first occurrence under the rug yet everyone had no problem picking on an 85 year old man who probably had a bigger positive impact on the world in one year than most of us could hope to have in a lifetime. If you've never been to State College/University Park to see even a tiny bit of impact that this man has had on the immediate community there you should shut it. He lived to a higher moral standard than most of us could ever hope to.
Friendly NU fan here and I can appreciate your comments. Friendly: You don't even have to be a HUGE sports fan to feel. This interview shows the hard of a 48ish year old man feeling like his entire "grade" of school respected him. I mean, Bawstin I see you putting that you saw this guy as a "God" but I imagine all it would take is for someone like Matt to know that he respected his former "boss." I would imagine that it is alot less than a God level or I have a "god" like respect for former
@AnneLiesveld It is as you say about his world unraveling because PSU became his foundation but also his foundation was that JP and JS were good people. Do you really think if JS did this kind of stuff he acted "evil" around Millen?
@lolee101 He probably isn't as much confused as when I hear him talking about wanting to talk about obliterating JS it is also about talking about how much He respected him in the past. I am guessing he is feeling the equivalent to what it might feel like to be in your 50s and realize a teacher in their 80s was accused of defending such things in their 70s.
@AnneLiesveld were coaches on the campus of, he hung out on campus with them, he connected with them as men, trusted them as father figures. This isn't about seeing them be "not perfect" I am sure they could get divorced and he would still respect them. this is SO MUCH BIGGER (I bet) for him! I don't know his feelings but I could imagine seeing something like this about a hs or college coach and imagine how i would feel. I STILL TO THIS DAY respect most of my hs teachers. I can rlt
@granolanutpunch It probably was very similar to family. When you figure he was first around with them in 76 that is alot of years of friendship. and talk about trying to figure out the emotions. I hear support of a coach in the riots on campus but I also see MM having an attitude about JS but even while saying that he admits he felt less than good about JS but even while saying that he sometimes admit the emotions get the best of him or however he put it--shockingly they do
@TheAngeltoDemon LOL about the punch. will check it out. :) I will google it since you said google it 3 times in twelve words. lol. :) Love your thoughts about JS. I am a new (growing) fan of PSU watching the coverage of their school and hoping against hope that this problem will resolve itself over time. Husker fan who quite recently started paying attention to this situation. Not sure which school you support PSU or another one. :) Always fun to have a team to cheer on!!!
@TheAngeltoDemon Don't know what punch you are talking about but clearly MM had emotions about JS and what he would do with him if allegations are proved true. I don't think he would give him a chance to answer he would just obliterate the guy point BLANK!
I'll tell you what. I was never really a fan of Matt Millen, but when I saw this.....man....nothing but respect.
