Penn State Scandal: Tom Bradley Will Hold First Press Conference As Head Coach Thursday

Nov 10 9:14a by Jordan Ruby

It's been a crazy 24 hours in State College, Pennsylvania and for Penn State fans everywhere. First the news yesterday morning that Joe Paterno planned to retire at the end of the season, then the news late Wednesday night that the University board of trustees had fired him. Lost in all of this is the fact that the Nittany Lions have a very important game this weekend against the Nebraska Cornhuskers. They will be coached in that game by longtime defensive coordinator Tom Bradley, who will serve as the interim coach for the school.

Bradley appears set to meet with the media for the first time as Penn State football coach on Thursday morning.

New Penn State head coach Tom Bradley will meet media tomorrow morning at 11.

The University will likely make any questions about Joe Paterno and the scandal off limits, like they planned on doing for Paterno's weekly press conference before it was canceled on Tuesday. But I can't imagine that the media will stay away from those topics for very long.
