Jay Paterno Talks

((HT: ESPN))

With the memorial plans for former Penn State head coach Joe Paterno in place, the town of Happy Valley is set for a very emotional couple of days...

But there are those who are already trying to take advantage of the situation...

According to University President Rodney Erickson, people are trying to auction off their tickets to the memorial for JoePa on Thursday. In an address to campus, Erickson feels that people will be recruiting more Penn State grads than before, and that athletics and academics can co-exist on campus.

Statecollege.com's Adam Smeltz also relays, from his Twitter feed, from Erickson: "Really, our moral imperative is that we become a national leader in the research, treatment and prevention of child abuse."

Noble goals, but the HQ will wait and see...
