Report: Former PSU coach Joe Paterno dies at 85


Posted by Adam Jacobi

Joe Paterno, the man who for decades was synonymous with Penn State football and was known by the college football world as just "JoePa", has died, according to Penn State student website Onward State. Onward State is reporting that the Penn State players were notified of Paterno's passing via email. Paterno, 85, had been receiving chemotherapy as part of his treatment for lung cancer.

However, Paterno family spokesperson Dan McGinn told a New York Times reporter that the report is "absolutely not true."

Apparently Onward State reported that players were emailed that he had passed. CBS Sports.com had it up that he had died but that link is down now. Spokesman for the family says it is absolutely not true.
