Paterno One Step Closer to Goal of Dying as PSU Coach

Mark Brennan at FightOnState.com reports that according to sources "the veteran Nittany Lion coach is set to sign a new deal that will keep him at the helm for at least three more years."

The 82-year-old, fresh off an 11-1 season, has a new hip and possibly wets himself, yet will forgo a retirement of bridge and shuffleboard in pursuit of his lifelong dream of becoming the "all-time winningest coach in college football history to die at the helm."

The article notes that the deal is expected to be signed and announced by week's end.

Heh.
