@ClydeFrog2012 This is exactly what everyone who is being so negative towards Penn State needs to hear. We do care about the victims and we are very supportive of child abuse prevention. So when people say "do the right thing" I want to know what more they want from us, because we are being very supportive. As a Penn State student I have been heartbroken by everything that has occurred this week on campus and I feel so bad for the victims. I just wish everyone would understand that.

1) This is a Nebraska coach 2) The speech was about so much more than football if you actually listened without a bias opinion 3) Whats wrong with using football as a platform to reach out to million about child abuse. P.S. what do you mean by "do the right thing"? Im pretty sure they are praying and trying to show support for the victims. As horrible as the events were, and i cant understate how traumatic they were, life goes on. So the only thing that people can do is show support and raise

@sabrezsavior You guys care more about your "football legacy" than you do children who were victimized and used by terrible terrible men (fuck Joe PAterno)

@ClydeFrog2012 As I talk about him praying about the definition of being a man, I think about how all of "your" teammates and all of "my" teammates became a "group of men" Do you notice how when they sat down to pray that even though they were "them" and :"us" they were so blended by being asked to be a group that they just blended into one big group of friends. It hardly looked like a PSU group and and NU group. VERY COOL visual!! And this is coming from a NU fan!!

@ClydeFrog2012 Husker fan here agreeing with you Clyde. RB is in fact a HUSKERS Coach but He adamatly talked about wanting there to be a way to make what is more important in the world be focused on for that one game (and maybe this will put sports back into perspective for everyone who follows college-ball (as it is called) but als oyou are right about 2 point as well. I loved how He put it that that day was a training ground for showing young boys about what a "man" is.

@ClydeFrog2012 People totally don't think you are all focused on yourselves 24-7 but people who do say such things are just lame. Such as people who say that you guys need to not "react" care about students whos lives were affected. ok well doing stuff before hand involves your campus realizing before hand.

@jch5251 The whole prayer was online on youtube on another place. or as much as you could hear before people started clapping/cheering. not sure of the pt of it.

Ron Brown will always be a class act. He is a true coach. Thanks Coach Brown, from the 100,000 in Happy Valley, where you'll always be welcome.

@sabrezsavior I couldn't agree more. I graduated from Penn State in 2006 and I know exactly how you're feeling. I'm feeling angry at how people are acting like we as alumni and students have done something wrong. Thank you for your post. WE ARE Penn State. <3

@rammas2 I support Joe Pa. He has done so much more than football for the University. PLUS all of the facts are not even out yet. I will support him till I know exactly what happened. If it turns out he did in fact cover up for Sandusky then no, I will not support him. And I go to University of Texas so it is not just PSU who supports him. People have jumped from conclusions from that bland grand jury report. Until I hear from Joe, McQueary, Shultz, or Curely then I will not judge.

OH puhleese. people have been supporting Joe Paterno on this thread.
