Franco Harris: Truth Hasn't Been Revealed About Paterno's Role In Sex Scandal
Hall of Fame running back Franco Harris joined "The Fan Morning Show" to talk about Joe Paterno's role in the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse scandal.www.cbsnews.com
On the vanguard of The Cult and Defending The Saint.
He may have been an outstanding human being on all other fronts but he was first and foremost a brainwashed cultist. And damned proud of it.
as a diehard Steelers fan who met and hung out with him on 2 occasions, couldn't agree more.Great RB, but kinda tarnished his reputation with me with his undying commitment to paterno during the Sandusky trial. RIP
With Drew Pearson at WR.Used to say in the early 70's "Can you imagine if Rutgers got serious about football and kept the talent at home? A backfield of Joe Theisman, Franco Harris and Lydell Mitchell?"
