Franco Harris has had generous television face time in the wake of Joe Paterno’s firing as the head football coach at Penn State. He would have been better off to have run from the cameras. That he didn’t has made it look like he failed to get an education when he walked the hallowed halls of Penn State.
He said that someone accused JoePa of a moral failure, that others picked up on this claim, and that it created the uproar he claims unfairly caused the legendary coach’s firing. The former Nittany Lion and Steeler, blinded by his affection for his old coach, said that JoePa is the epitome of integrity and did everything he should have done with his knowledge of Jerry Sandusky’s nefarious deeds.
Franco is in denial. Apparently he has not given thought to the number of additional lives that would not have been spoiled if JoePa would have called police when he first learned of Sandusky’s sins. Love is blind. Let’s call it an immaculate deception and relegate Franco to the dunce corner to share space and a pointy hat with Twitter screw-up, Ashton Kutcher.
