It's a shame.  He talked a good game about honor and integrity.   Lots of people looked up to him, but when it really mattered he showed exactly what he was made of and how he valued football above all else.  Sad

yep, im with the majority here.  although he was a phenominal coach, he sacrificed his own advice for his success.  some young lives paid the price for that sacrifice.  for that, i hope he rots in hell.  perhaps he can use kim jong il, hitler, stalin, and a few select others as  his coaching staff down there and get a few scrimmages going...

This statement contradicts itself. The cynical would have no doubt about JoPa's questionable shenanigans during his career, especially considering his final denouement.

Well you got me there. Perhaps cynical was the wrong word to use. I was thinking along the lines of kicking a man while he's down. For good.
