Letter to the Editor
Basketball, football coaches must resign

When will Happy Valley's two high-profile programs actually be considered Division I once again? Our already sorry basketball players keep transferring while half of the football team is locked up or on parole.

Every football and basketball season I am embarrassed to let friends and co-workers know of my alma mater. This has to stop ... we need to remove the two cancers in our athletics programs.

Paterno and DeChellis must go. Mr. Curley continues to be spineless and take the easy way out of this situation. The longer JoePa stays, the better he WAS. Ed DeChellis seems to have had more players leave than have been recruited since his arrival.

Penn State is always looking for alumni funding. Well, if you ever expect a dime from me, make me proud to be a Nittany Lion once again. Resurrect the two programs from the dead.
