Latest Penn State Weedgate all smoke, no fire

Joe Paterno spoke at a booster meeting in Arlington, Virginia this evening and commented on the latest Penn State pot scandal...
"That's been blown way out of proportion. It's a party, and my guys horsing around with marijuana? You know, we test them all the time. And the four kids who were renting the apartment were not in the apartment when the police got in there.

"But they're four young kids. They're sophomores in college, and who knows? Unfortunately a lot of times your buddies come up for the Blue-White Game. I'm very reluctant to take any kind of position. If I find out somebody was dead wrong and really involved in the whole deal, then we'll take appropriate action, but right now I don't think we would."
Tony De Boef, an attorney for the players (Stephfon Green, Devon Still, Eric Latimore, and Johnnie Troutman), echoed Paterno...
“I can tell you that they were not home. Like a lot of students on campus, they leave their doors unlocked and there were some friends visiting for the Blue-White Game. They actually had not been there for several hours.”
