Guy Who Personally Fired Joe Paterno Resigns from Penn State Board of Trustees

U.S. Steel CEO and Vice Chairman of the Pennsylvania State University Board of Trustees–AKA the guy who fired JoePa over the phone–is resigning. I can only assume John Surma was tired of all the angry alumni who won’t stop accusing him of conspiring to fire Paterno because of a personal grudge. Said one angry aluni group, which has been calling for the entire board to be fired, “We only wish he would have resigned sooner.” [AP]
