Yep. Part of the Paterno myth that they couldn't simply do something but, rather, had to do it for some incredibly noble reason.

They didn't duck Texas in the Cotton Bowl in 1969 to avoid an ass kicking, they did it because JoePa put the interest of his black players not having to play in the South above that of winning a NC. Of course, he chose to instead play a bowl game that season in...checks notes...Florida.

Literally everything they do is copied. White out, Paternoville, White Stripes. Everything they think is theirs is from somebody else.

They didn’t even invent pedophilia, but they made it their own.

Well, in fairness, when they're left to create their own they come up with shit like this:

Put those two student bodies in the same place at the same time and Satan only knows what fucked up shit they'd come up with.

My guess is that it would result in a shift in the space time continuum that would cause the demise of all mankind.

Well in that case, let's just fucking do it already.
