R.I.P joe pa. u always had this michigan fans respect. i dont care about the scandal you were still a great man and cared deeply for penn state and your players. god bless u and all that u sacrificed for college football. the big ten and college football will never be the same.
This gives me chills, It's eerily foreshadowing. Just 38 days from the day this posted, Paterno would be fired, and the legacy forever darkened. The legacy of who WE ARE cannot be broken by 1 man, 1 official, or 1 coach. Tradition doesn't work like that. I think we need an old school highlight video for 2019... it's time to get back to basics.
FOR THE GLORY OF OLD STATE! SUCCES WITH HONOR! We will not let the actions of a few men change the moral standards of our great university. We will continue to live honorably and love Penn State. Traditiion is Penn State and we can not let this great tragedy overshadow all of the great things that have gone on here. Hopefully people will start to understand and respect the true meaning of being a Penn Stater as time moves on. We can only hope. WE ARE..
Great video. Awesome University. For over a century and a half we have not had any negative attention. Players, students, Alumni and staff define class. We are moving forward, we don't live in the past. We are not responsible for the actions of a former employee. Joe Paterno is a class act and a great football coach. I'll take my PSU experience, degree, and six figure salary and laugh in the face of anyone who talks unconfirmed nonsense. Stay strong and proud, hold the course. #WEARE
I see this video whenever I go to a Penn State football game!! Always gives me chills because of how awesome it is! The song is a perfect fit to this amazing video! Always gives me chills watching this. -Freshman at Penn State University Park! -David
I'm so hurt to see all the negative comments on videos like this...I love my school! I wish the amazing things we did got more attention instead of situations the media skews in order to boost their ratings. THON, Lunar Lion, all the research that is conducted at Penn State that help improve people's lives everyday (just to name a few). We may not be the best at everything, but I have never been somewhere like this school where there is room to help you grow to your greatest potential.
@HarlequinBuckeye Actually there's been more than handful of Buckeye fans who have been especially understanding given how both schools are under scrutiny of scandal. And for that I personally think we should be grateful. The OSU student section gave a standing ovation to the Penn State players as they left the field, both teams have class. We hate each other in a different way than we often think.
I totally agree about the severity, I never said anything about that. My point is that we shouldn't lose sight of other scandals committed by grown men and women affecting the lives of college students/athletes, programs and reputations. Just because one is the most horrible kind of scandal, doesn't lessen the others. One other thing, each one of the scandals I listed had cover up, so don't think that no one in those situations acted differently.
The only thing that would make this better is if there were a live "We are" chant at the end instead of random crowd noise. Other than that, this video is spectacular.
Forget the past remember the Alma Mater "May no act of ours bring shame" dont be discriminated over one un human being, the acts of monster take us down. Dont be down and angered over a legends death. You remember it and all he has done for the University. If it wasnt for him, they wouldnt have had the Paterno Library. The education wouldnt have been as good. The traditions wouldnt have been the same. Just remember one thing We Are and always will be Penn State. -from the heart of 14 year old
@guarddog22 It's where I met all of my best friends, it's where I chose to pay to get a degree, and it's where I've had experiences that I won't ever forget. It's a business yes, but it's a business that's done plenty of good for a innumerable amount of people, and also one that trains people to continue beneficial actions for the good of everyone. It's the same reason anyone is proud of their Alma Mater, and maybe even more.
For Generations among Generations Success With Honor has been our calling card Greatness has been earned throughout our great and illustrious history And this type of greatness has been passed down from one generation to another From JoePa to James Franklin From Todd Blackledge, John Shaffer and Kerry Collins, to Trace McSorley, Sean Clifford, and Drew Allar From Franco and Lydell to Ki-Jana in 94, LJ2K in 02 and Saquan, to Nick the Quick and Kaytron From Jack Ham and Shane Conlan to Micah Parsons and Abdul Carter From Hail to the Lion and Fight On State to Zombie Nation and Mo Bamba Football, Family, and Traditions have always connected State College over the years When you put on the Blue and White Theres a responsibility that comes with it You must not only embrace those that came before you But you must follow in their footsteps while creating your own legacy And for games like this With the greatest players and teams that our school has had to offer watching from a distance And in front of the Greatest Show in College Sports Those emotions of both pride and excitement will come pouring out Both on the field at Beaver Stadium And in the stands of 110,000 people You can hate us or love us You can be a stranger or a diehard You can be a student, or a long time season ticket holder You can be optimistic or worried This is what its like to be a part of Penn State Football This is what its like to be a part of the culture of PSU as a whole And if anyone wants to agrue about what our Generations of Greatness Traditions are all about There are only two words that answer that question…………………… WE ARE! “PENN STATE!”
Is there a way to get a copy of the video so that I can put it on my Homepage of my TH-cam channel? I see others do something similar and I can't figure it out. Thanks.
i, as a current Penn State student, am ashamed at the lack of control our university had over this entire scandal. however, i am not now, nor will ever be, ashamed of Penn State as a whole. we are so much more than this scandal. i still love Joe Paterno, that is my own choice. i understand he made the worst mistake possible, but to put it simply, if you're not affiliated with Penn State, you won't ever get it. leave it at that.
I've been in Europe on business for the past month. I just got home, and all of a sudden all the Penn State fans who expressed outrage at the Ohio State tattoo's for memorabilia scandal, and demanded Jim Tressel's resignation have been very quiet lately. Did something happen at your wonderful, and wholesome university? What has gotten into you? I certainly can't be any worse than that awful Ohio State scandal? The Nilttany Lions have class and morals. Unlike those big bad Buckeyes.
@SteveD2326 the grand jury convened in 2009. There's 8 accusers thus far, plus the one that just filed a civil suit claiming hundreds of sexual encounters.
@nic190 Funny how so many people give PSU alumni, students and fans beef because we don't think about the victims enough yet they're the first ones to make jokes about child molestation. For example, this comment.
@SteveD2326 You're absolutely right. How much can one person do?? The people he reported it to chose to do nothing, now JoePa suffers the consequences. NOT okay.
The people making idiotic comments obviously don't go to/don't like PSU for some reason, probably because they are jealous they didn't go there. And they obviously didn't pay any real attention to what actually happened with the scandal.
Yes Sandusky once represented penn state. Yes Joe Paterno once represented penn state. Yes our athletic program represents penn state. but neither DEFINES penn state. We as penn staters are ashamed by those who stained our name with monstrous acts. but does that mean we should lose pride in our school? No. Does that mean we should be ashamed when we sing the Alma Mater? No. If the acts of a handful of people can destroy our love and faith in a dear school, how shallow would that be?
i think its quite sad that people take the time out of their day finding a video about penn state just to then comment on it in a negative fashion what kind of life do you guys have? Seriously. All of you are just saying these hateful things to make yourself feel better to make yourself feel perfect, possibly just to get you through the day, no ones perfect not even close, now im not condoning what jerry sandusky did to those poor victims but before you open your mouth or type up comments, Think
To tell you the truth the whole scandal shouldn't at all revolve around Penn State! If Sandusky was not affiliated with any college, then the whole story would revolve around the victims! why? BECAUSE IT SHOULD. It is the court's responsibility to convict the criminals. Not ours, Not the media's. Our responsibility is do whatever we can to help the victims and to stop things like these to happen again! How shallow are we to focus on reputations wen we pay no attention to the victims?
Using a football program as boy-bait. Sandusky's version of "Hey kid, I lost my puppy. Would you help me find it"? That's some serrrrrrrrrriously disturbing shit.
@SteveD2326 They should donate ALL proceeds for the last 12 years to help stop child abuse. All the years this could have been stopped, yet would have brought shame upon the university. They allegedly slipped it under the rug to preserve profit and "tradition" you seem to waive in people's faces. The tradition you'll be remembered for isn't the one I think your school is speaking of.
@SteveD2326 . what was going through his mind when cop cars DIDNT come screaming up to the school, sirens blazing moments after he "reported it" ? "well. i told my boss" isnt good enough for me, but i care more about stopping little boys from getting raped than i do about football.
@kyoungin the hell? it only takes ONE PERSON to call 911 .what sort of MAN doesn't take it upon himself to call authorities when he sees the people he reported it to doing nothing.. . FOR 8+ years! . he needs to spend the rest of his life in shame . he chose to put a football program over the saftey of children .. not cool.. not cool at all. its sad for the people who look up to him . he has let them down .. big time ..
WE ARE PENN STATE!!! NOW, YESTERDAY, AND TOMORROW!! It's amazing how many people have so little positive going on in their own lives that they will look up videos on Penn State football just to make mindless comments allowing them to feel better about their own pathetic lives. Penn State will be back...stronger than before!
It's sick that students at pedifile state university back Joe after he knew about it and didn't go to the police because it was he's best friend . You would think he's moral would make him go to the police not his boss the school need the death penalty
I would not want to work for a company that makes sweeping generalizations about students of any university like that. Heck I am a senior at PSU - never met Curley, Shutlz, JoePa or Spanier. I did not even know who Sandusky was until November. Also, deciding not to hire PSU grads is your loss - The NY Times ranked Penn State as the number one school for companies to recruit out of. PSU has top programs in business, engineering and science. Its ranked in the top 50 in the World in research.
i can just tell you didnt read anything. all you know in the case is paterno. espn concentrates on it because it will get them ratings. read the case. just read it. paterno wasnt being charged with perjury.
@TheOrioles93 You're one of the best in the country? You must mean......#45 right? Meaning there are 44 better schools in 50 states. Northwestern actually has a higher graduation rate....... Let me get this straight about Paterno......let's say he was a good man for 80yrs, then murdered someone. Does the fact that was good for so long then not make him a murderer? Take off the rose colored glasses.
As a Nebraska fan, you probably (more than the rest of us) realize that Nebraska will only beat Penn State when they have help from the NCAA. For you, the decision to penalize Penn State was not about healing and rebuilding the lives of the victims, but enabling your team to get a cheap win. That's even more pathetic than a cover-up........deriving joy in it.
the public outrage is one of the biggest reasons victims of rape have a hard time coming forward. but the american public doesnt want to actually understand things. so ..
no matter what your opinion about the scandal is, Joe Pa was a great man. and he was loved by many. RIP Joe Pa
WE ARE BECAUSE HE WAS AND STILL IS, AND TAUGHT US TO BE...
R.I.P joe pa. u always had this michigan fans respect. i dont care about the scandal you were still a great man and cared deeply for penn state and your players. god bless u and all that u sacrificed for college football. the big ten and college football will never be the same.
This gives me chills, It's eerily foreshadowing. Just 38 days from the day this posted, Paterno would be fired, and the legacy forever darkened.
The legacy of who WE ARE cannot be broken by 1 man, 1 official, or 1 coach. Tradition doesn't work like that.
I think we need an old school highlight video for 2019... it's time to get back to basics.
FOR THE GLORY OF OLD STATE!
SUCCES WITH HONOR!
We will not let the actions of a few men change the moral standards of our great university. We will continue to live honorably and love Penn State. Traditiion is Penn State and we can not let this great tragedy overshadow all of the great things that have gone on here. Hopefully people will start to understand and respect the true meaning of being a Penn Stater as time moves on. We can only hope.
WE ARE..
I will always be a proud Penn Stater.
Sad to think so many kids looked up to these men only to have been let down in one of the biggest ways!
They will be back and better than ever. You can count on it! God Bless Jo Pa.
This video is so epic.....all recruits need to see this
I watch this video every gameday. It never fails to get me ready for the game.
Great video. Awesome University. For over a century and a half we have not had any negative attention. Players, students, Alumni and staff define class. We are moving forward, we don't live in the past. We are not responsible for the actions of a former employee.
Joe Paterno is a class act and a great football coach. I'll take my PSU experience, degree, and six figure salary and laugh in the face of anyone who talks unconfirmed nonsense. Stay strong and proud, hold the course. #WEARE
:'( So sad that the place I called home for four years and had some of the best years of my life at will no longer been known by this legacy..........
HEART OF COURAGE!
Penn State Forever
I see this video whenever I go to a Penn State football game!! Always gives me chills because of how awesome it is! The song is a perfect fit to this amazing video! Always gives me chills watching this.
-Freshman at Penn State University Park!
-David
This video makes me so upset, JoePa deserves to be coaching. There's so many years of dedication put into this team. Go Penn State.
This is still the best penn state video ever made, I watch it every day.
Video never gets old
God Bless you JoePa! I truly miss you!
I'm so hurt to see all the negative comments on videos like this...I love my school! I wish the amazing things we did got more attention instead of situations the media skews in order to boost their ratings.

xUndomielx Youre honestly delusional, and your love for sports culture being stronger than your hatred for child molestation is fucking disgusting.
@HarlequinBuckeye Actually there's been more than handful of Buckeye fans who have been especially understanding given how both schools are under scrutiny of scandal. And for that I personally think we should be grateful. The OSU student section gave a standing ovation to the Penn State players as they left the field, both teams have class.

For Generations among Generations
Success With Honor has been our calling card
Greatness has been earned throughout our great and illustrious history
And this type of greatness has been passed down from one generation to another
From JoePa to James Franklin
From Todd Blackledge, John Shaffer and Kerry Collins, to Trace McSorley, Sean Clifford, and Drew Allar
From Franco and Lydell to Ki-Jana in 94, LJ2K in 02 and Saquan, to Nick the Quick and Kaytron
From Jack Ham and Shane Conlan to Micah Parsons and Abdul Carter
From Hail to the Lion and Fight On State to Zombie Nation and Mo Bamba
Football, Family, and Traditions have always connected State College over the years
When you put on the Blue and White
Theres a responsibility that comes with it
You must not only embrace those that came before you
But you must follow in their footsteps while creating your own legacy
And for games like this
With the greatest players and teams that our school has had to offer watching from a distance
And in front of the Greatest Show in College Sports
Those emotions of both pride and excitement will come pouring out
Both on the field at Beaver Stadium
And in the stands of 110,000 people
You can hate us or love us
You can be a stranger or a diehard
You can be a student, or a long time season ticket holder
You can be optimistic or worried
This is what its like to be a part of Penn State Football
This is what its like to be a part of the culture of PSU as a whole
And if anyone wants to agrue about what our Generations of Greatness Traditions are all about
There are only two words that answer that question…………………… WE ARE! “PENN STATE!”
Is there a way to get a copy of the video so that I can put it on my Homepage of my TH-cam channel? I see others do something similar and I can't figure it out. Thanks.
Im a foreign student from PERU. Ill be a freshmen at PennState this fall!! Im so exciteeeeeeeeeeeed!! :D
@IrreverentEnigma
This video was released in September before all this stuff even came about in the news. and Penn State didnt release the video.
We Are... One Team! Penn State!
We are Penn State! For ever may Joe Pa manifest the glory of good ol state!
i, as a current Penn State student, am ashamed at the lack of control our university had over this entire scandal. however, i am not now, nor will ever be, ashamed of Penn State as a whole. we are so much more than this scandal. i still love Joe Paterno, that is my own choice. i understand he made the worst mistake possible, but to put it simply, if you're not affiliated with Penn State, you won't ever get it. leave it at that.
Absolutely amazing!! PSU 3!!!!!
Penn State 4 ever! BEAT THE BUCKEYES!
I've been in Europe on business for the past month. I just got home, and all of a sudden all the Penn State fans who expressed outrage at the Ohio State tattoo's for memorabilia scandal, and demanded Jim Tressel's resignation have been very quiet lately.

Paterno IS BURNING IN HELL for not protecting our little ones.
@SteveD2326 the grand jury convened in 2009. There's 8 accusers thus far, plus the one that just filed a civil suit claiming hundreds of sexual encounters.
its sick to think they knew about a sandusky since 1998 but still didn't do anything
@Spoonmaster345 funny you should use the word "train."
@nic190 Funny how so many people give PSU alumni, students and fans beef because we don't think about the victims enough yet they're the first ones to make jokes about child molestation. For example, this comment.
10 people got dressed up in little league football gear and touched by jerry sandusky
I CAN TELL MY CHILDREN WHEN I'M YOUNGER, THAT I WAS ALIVE DURING THE TIME OF JOE PATERNO! #PSU PROUD!
whats the name of that song?
Heart of Courage - by Two Steps from Hell
Bring the statue back!
@SteveD2326 You're absolutely right. How much can one person do?? The people he reported it to chose to do nothing, now JoePa suffers the consequences. NOT okay.
What "traditions" are we talking about here?
0:58 "May no act of ours bring shame", that was prophetic.
The people making idiotic comments obviously don't go to/don't like PSU for some reason, probably because they are jealous they didn't go there. And they obviously didn't pay any real attention to what actually happened with the scandal.

@jmsmall28 well said :)
Gotta love Penn State football (: The one and only Joepa!!!
@homertalk Its your own opinion.
Where's Jerry Sandusky?
Penn State Football is officially dead. This is worse than the death penalty. It's time for the BIG to give you the boot.
Wow, can you say 'wrong!' PSU is alive and well, and one of the best of the BIG. Good call timmy...
I miss Joe too
@kyoungin the hell? it only takes ONE PERSON to call 911 .what sort of MAN doesn't take it upon himself to call authorities when he sees the people he reported it to doing nothing.. . FOR 8+ years! . he needs to spend the rest of his life in shame . he chose to put a football program over the saftey of children .. not cool.. not cool at all. its sad for the people who look up to him . he has let them down .. big time ..
Joe Pa is getting thrown under the bus here!
How about that bowl game! Future recruits.....do you really want to be part of a team that is looked over because of their "traditions?"
WE ARE PENN STATE!!! NOW, YESTERDAY, AND TOMORROW!! It's amazing how many people have so little positive going on in their own lives that they will look up videos on Penn State football just to make mindless comments allowing them to feel better about their own pathetic lives. Penn State will be back...stronger than before!

It's sick that students at pedifile state university back Joe after he knew about it and didn't go to the police because it was he's best friend . You would think he's moral would make him go to the police not his boss the school need the death penalty
Somebody needs a tickle monster....
- Sandusky
Come to PSU where kids 10 and under get in free and get to meet the coaches after the game in the locker room. WE ARE PEDD STATE!!
How do they separate the men from the boys at Penn State?
With crowbars!
just a hint...shit like that happens everywhere. stop hating on PSU cause you can't go there.
"May no act of ours bring shame"
Too late.
Joe.
PS I
lol good one
I would not want to work for a company that makes sweeping generalizations about students of any university like that. Heck I am a senior at PSU - never met Curley, Shutlz, JoePa or Spanier. I did not even know who Sandusky was until November.

Have fun getting 3 wins over the course of the next ten years!!! Penn states about to suck sooo fucking bad lol
Enough with the hagiography, the report is in.
GO PSU!
i can just tell you didnt read anything. all you know in the case is paterno. espn concentrates on it because it will get them ratings. read the case. just read it. paterno wasnt being charged with perjury.
Sandusky disliked this video 3 times
@highoffcoffee496 k

@sa5spurs oh lol yeh you're not funny. don't be that guy.
To the showers! Coach is waiting!
the public outrage is one of the biggest reasons victims of rape have a hard time coming forward. but the american public doesnt want to actually understand things. so ..
RIP THAT DEVIL STATUE DOWN!
