Arizona State University president: "I would have fired Joe Paterno"

[ChiTownLion]

"Here it's this notion we build into our culture of maximum diligence for the safety of our athletes," Crow said. "It's zero tolerance. You can't always prevent something from happening, but you can take immediate action the second you hear about it.

"My reaction to the facts of the Penn State case going all the way back to the incident that was reported by the assistant coach (Mike McQueary) to the head coach (Joe Paterno) to the athletic director (Tim Curley) was that the assistant coach and the head coach were remiss in their duty. I would have fired both of them, I don't care who they are. And if I got fired after that, they'd still be fired."

 

[psuro]

Well he did get fired so.....go eff yourself you Sun Devil punk

 

[jerrycalpal]

Asshole

 

[NittPicker]

I'm waiting anxiously to hear what he thinks about Michigan State. Oops, no legendary coach there to talk tough about and make himself sound like a bad ass.

OK big man. Better be checking your "U" something may be going on! Ask MSU!

 

[ram2020]

Wow, such leadership, such integrity, I applaud the decisiveness too. Let me try really quick:

If I was his boss, i would fire him for moralizing and grandstanding. I'd fire him because he is a total p.o.s. and I wouldn't care if it got me fired, because Senior Sundevil would be fired.

Isn't this the precursor to something of the sort happening under his watch? I.E. Oregon State pitcher, MSU Nassar, etc...

 

[81b&w]

As soon as I saw his pic I could see ahole across his forehead. Some people exude that

A punk he is.

 

[zzang]

The Arizona State mascot is a broken condom so f that guy.

 

[LurkerLazarus]

I suspect something's coming up for him. There's no reason for him to talk like this. After all, it's all rather out-of-the-blue at this point. It's just too bad that are gutless, pathetic, so-called leaders, won't fire back. They're just too cowardly.

 

[psute]

What a POS....

Gee, Prez Crow, what big internet balls you have!

The better to hypothetically fire a deceased football coach with, deary.

 

[LurkerLazarus]

He's a nobody president of a shitty no-place school with open admissions. Why do we give a shit what he thinks? Intellectually he's not much above the average Lair participant.

WTF does this even mean? He would have fired them as soon as they reported it? Or he would have fired them at some point before they actually were fired?

He just sounds dumb.

Gee hope it makes you feel good big man.What a loser

"My reaction to the facts of the Penn State case

I doubt that you have even an inkling of "the facts" of this case...what a grandstander!

 

[searay26]

I really don't give a crap about any outsiders take on Paterno. I'll go with my own opinion of Joe.

 

[Delco Lion]

He should focus more on his wife and taxes......

Just another clueless sheep

Why would you fire the person who did the right thing

Now MM remiss - sure

He just sounds dumb.

He IS dumb. El stupido. He would have fired Joe Paterno for following university policy. Cool story, bro. Come at me!

 

[Nitwit97]

Crow has the cart before the horse. Paterno never would have worked for him! Thanks for your two cents, a decade and a half after the fact.

 

[BobPSU92]

crow would have fired Joe for following university policy, STATE LAW, and what now are ncaa guidelines.

crow is a f*cking idiot.

 

[BobPSU92]

ChiTownLion should kick crow's ass all over Twitter.

 

[MontereyLion]

In 2001, what would he have fired Joe for?......following the Penn State guidelines? He would have been part of the decision making process in 2001.
Would he have fired himself first, in 2011?

Exactly what I was thinking. Trying To divert attention away from his own issues.

Nice try slob. Fat Clown.

 

[Rip_E_2_Joe_PA]

Answer to the question what is a BLOW HARD that has never really done anything and doesn't know WTF he is talking about.

 

[LafayetteBear]

I've seen examples of it before, but this one may be the apotheosis of gratuitous stupidity.

 

[bkmtnittany1]

So Crow...that must mean you believe the bullshit Freeh wrote? That means you are an incompetent asshole unworthy of being in charge of a school.

The BOT false narrative at work, six years after the fact. He's just one more well-educated ignoramus who, like 99% of the general public, has utterly no concept of what actually went down, or why it went down the way it did, or who conspired to make sure it went down that way.

As a university president, he probably associates with people of the frazier/dambly/peetz ilk. His life is very likely about lying and kissing ass to get what he wants. That is often the case for people in his position.

 

[Rip_E_2_Joe_PA]

Jim Crow will fire anyone right after he gets his penile implant.

 

[Player2BNamedL8r]

Wait...why the fvck is a president from ASU even commenting on Joe 6+ years after the fact? Does news just travel slowly to/in the desert?

 

[doc69]

people like him, make me sick.

JESUS H. CHRIST! It's going on 7 years since this sh1t storm hit the news. I still have to listen to this sh1t?

Someone please tell me this is a joke. I'll tell you who should be FIRED - people in positions of authority that think conducting an (ahem) INDEPENDENT (aka Freeh Report) review supersedes Constitutional Law and due process. At thins ppint, any sane person can see how things data was manipulated from day one.

Our society is fvcked. There are very few intelligent and fair people in the world and even fewer that hold positions of power

 

[lurkerlion]

I don't understand. He as University president would have fired Joe. However, the university president (Spanier) had knowledge of the incident (who knows exactly how much).

In other words he would have to fire himself since he was at the top of the food chain of knowledge? Or, he would have to fire Joe to cover his own ass because Joe knew everything? I don't understand his point. He obviously doesn't know what went down.

 

[NewEra 2014]

Well, it is just arizona state. Not much of a school.

Hey now. Don't be taking shots at Arizona State. Arizona State is the largest community college in the United States.
