Oh my goodness. I just saw the news earlier and it said he wasn't doing well. I had not heard that he had died. My condolences to his family. Very sad.

Reports of Joe Paterno's death refuted by family - CBSSports.com

Someone screwed up.

Just saw breaking news on ESPN that the family released statement earlier this morning that JoePa has passed away.
He will be missed.

It's so sad that his life ended under the shadow that it did. He did so much good to have had this hanging over him at the end. RIP, JoPa
