Paterno up for "the award"

| | Comments (0)

Once again, Joe Paterno is on the the Paul "Bear" Bryant College Football Coach of the Year Award Watch List.

That's a big title.

What it means is that Paterno is one of about 20 candidates hoping to be named "coach of the year." Joe won it three times before, the most recent in 1986.

He was a finalist in 1994 and 2005.

He's going up against the likes of Pete Carroll (USC), Mack Brown (Texas), Urban Meyer (Florida), Nick Saban (Alabama) and Nittany Lion fans' dreaded rival from the west, Pitt's Dave Wannstedt.
