Many think he won't coach Saturday. Thought being, if they didn't put him in front of the press yesterday, then they aren't going to do it Saturday. PA's governor will be at the trustees meeting Friday that will probably determine Paterno's fate, and he will be speaking to the press afterwards. That doesn't bode well.

There is the possibility that after 50 years, they give him a good bye game, but if that happens they can't expect warm and fuzzy. Students have already stated that is Paterno and the school president don't step down, there will be a protest inside the stadium during the game.

That would be a classic. The protesters v. cultists, students and alumni mixed on both sides. Could very well devolve into a riot going out live over the airwaves. JoePa hobbling around, trying to yell in that squeaky voice, "Hey, we gotta game to play."

I'll go even less time before he's planted. Without his work, and with the shame of this, 6 months tops. He's not going to be doing corporate speaking engagements. He's going to be holed up somewhere wishing he could coach, wondering what the big deal was.

Only 2 reasons I can think of for people caring about college sports are gambling and no pro teams close by to attend games.
