A good coach knows when to move on
And it seems like it might happen soon at PSU.
The Altoona Mirror [http://www.altoonamirror.com/page/content.detail/id/525742.html?nav=742] says that
A report surfaced today that a PSU source said a Nittany Lion coach is a candidate for the Florida defensive coordinator job. Bradley said he has heard the rumors this afternoon and added he does not know if defensive line coach Larry Johnson Sr. or linebackers coach Ron Vanderlinden are candidates.
If a coach were to leave , would you be shocked? What are the odds that Paterno leaves any time soon? 15 years ago people said he'd be gone in 3-5 more years.
As long as he can keep beatting up on cupcakes, letting kids sing some Bon Jovi and CCR in a rain storm and pack 110k sheeple into the stadium 8 times a year then no one will fire him. When he leaves he'll hand the keys over to Jay Paterno and things will keep on running.
Norwood knew when to leave, LJ SR almost went to Illinois not too long ago and you have to wonder if Vandy ever wants to be a HC again.
