I don't even know the words to describe how awesome that was.

I went to bandarama tonight instead of the pep rally, and the show was great, but wow, that was awesome.

Let's Go State

By god, if they don't win I'm gonna kill 'em!

WOW did that just get me fired up for the game today. He goes out and the first thing he does is talk up the women’s volleyball team. Then he goes on to give the classic ‘get out there and win’ speech that Lou Holtz only wishes he could deliver.

The whole thing just reminds me how lucky WE ARE to have Joe Paterno coaching for us.

We’re gonna WIN tomorrah!

Wow...

God I love that guy… he is amazing. If I am lucky enough to be on this earth for 82 years I cannot imagine being as badass as JoePa. You forget his age when you see him like this

If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.

Excellent video

Wish I could still be in HV to see these things live.
We will NEVER have moments like this with any other coach.
Long live Joe!

I was right behind the swing camera

Right next to the Paterno family, and I’m actually in shot at 4:41. Anywho, it was truly an honor and sent chills up my spine to be able to be twenty feet away from the man. His spirit and dedication is palpable. I’m so proud to be a Penn State student, and to be a part of that something bigger. Luckily, I’m only a junior, and hopefully we hear these speeches in the years to come, because they will never get old to me or less inspiring.

I love the guy

but he has to trust the audience to respond to his “We are…” and not respond himself ;-)

Other than that, a truly amazing pep rally, and I hope we get to see another hundred or so of these in the future.

WE ARE…

Great video

That is definitely when he is at his best.

At the 2005 OBowl pep rally he had the place fired up..
