Penn State Sports Information Director Jeff Nelson sent out an email Sunday afternoon confirming Joe Paterno had "successful" hip replacement surgery at Mount Nittany Medical Center earlier the same day.
According to the email, Dr. Wayne Sebastianelli reports that Paterno is "resting comfortably" and "anxious" to get home.
In the email, Nelson writes that Paterno should be on his feet by Monday and able to resume his coaching regimen when Penn State players return to school on Dec. 1 after Thanksgiving break.
