Relately an old "story" about Joe Paterno questioning a high school football player whom was "supposed" to be a stand-out that Joe Pa wanted to go to PSU. Joe Pa: " Tell me son about your size"? Signee; "I'm 6 ft. 4" and weight about 265. Joe Pa; " At that size I can use you on the line." Signee; " No coach, I want be a running back." Joe Pa; " Son, most guys your size are rather slow and clumsy." Signee; " Not me coach; I set the school record in the 100 yd. dash. And I'm not clumsy at all, because I also take dance and ballet lessons." Joe Pa; " How about your grades"?? Signee; " I'm a honor roll student every semester". Joe Pa; " I hope you don't drink or do any drugs; do you"? Signee; " No sir coach; I voted the most outstanding young Christain in my church for the last 3 years." Joe Pa; " Son: every-one has a vice or problem that they want to hide. Please tell me if you have any so I won't ever regret bringing you to Penn State"? Signee; " Just one small thing coach." Joe Pa; "What is it son; I want to know everything about you"? Signee; " I DO HAVE A TENDENCY TO LIE" Reminds me of reading fishing reports.
