Doctors say that the status of Joe Paterno, former coach of Pennsylvania has become a "serious" after suffering complications from lung cancer in recent days.
Winningest coach in college football all-time great, was diagnosed shortly after Paterno of Penn State's Board of Directors ousted on November 9 following the accusations against the sexual exploitation of children, Jerry Sandusky former assistant . Paterno has access to treatment since then, and his health problems worsened when he broke his pelvis - an injury which first broke when he accidentally collided in practice before the start of the season last year.
"In recent days have seen Joe Paterno other health complications," said family spokesman Dan McGinn in a brief statement Saturday to The Associated Press. "I have now marked their doctors as serious.
"His family would not comment on the situation and calls for respect for their privacy during this difficult time," he said.
Scott, Jay Paterno children and bringing each Twitter on Saturday night to refute reports that his father had died.
Jay Paterno wrote: "I appreciate the support (f) sentences Joe to keep fighting."
At the same time, bringing together nearly 200 students and residents of the city on Saturday night in State College on the statue of Paterno.
Bring some candles, while others raised their smart phones to take pictures of the scene. The mood was somber, with the presence or absence of applause and screams.
Jay Paterno Twitter "herd by students in an environment of the statue, and told my father all the love and support to all inspiring for him."
The statue stands outside the door of Beaver Stadium.
Paterno has been 85 years in the hospital from January 13 to observe what he called his family had minor complications in cancer treatments. It was not long before he held his only interview since losing his job with the Washington Post. Paterno has been described and weak, and then use a wig. And he carried out the second half of the interview, which lasted two days in bed.
The last days of the race in Pennsylvania Paterno easily the toughest in 61 years with the University and 46 seasons as football coach of the head.
Arrested Sandusky coordinator, defensive, which has long been on the staff of Paterno in the national title two seasons of 05 November and accused of sexually abusing at the end of the day, with a total of 10 children more than 15 years. The arrest sparked outrage not only locally but throughout the country and there were widespread calls for Paterno to quit.
Paterno announced the night of November 9 that he will retire at the end of the season, but just hours after receiving a call from Vice President John Surma, and said he had ended the team's coach. At that time, and a crowd of students and the media outside the parental home. When news spread that had been dumped Paterno, there were riots in the Faculty of the State.
The police had barricaded off the Saturday night mass of Paterno, where he lives, and the police car was parked about 50 yards from his home. There's a light in the living room, but there was no activity inside. No one outside, and other reporters and photographers stationed there.
He said this week that the Board of Paterno paid in part because the moral responsibility to report the claim in 2002 against Sandusky authorities outside the university. They also feel that challenged his authority, and that in practice, with all the media in the city, and attention to the issue of Sandusky, can no longer operate the equipment.
Paterno has seen a grand jury investigating the Sandusky moved to his superiors that the charge came from assistant Mike McQueary superior, who said he had seen the abuse of a child in the shower building Sandusky Football bin.
Note Paterno said he knew how to deal with this accusation, but one day after visiting McQueary, Paterno spoke with the Director of the athletes and officials with censorship on campus by police.
Sollers flame of the wick, Paterno's attorney and the Board's comments this week from self-service and is not compatible with the facts. Sollers said Paterno, said he knows exactly what those responsible for research on campus.
"He did what he thought was right, with the information he had at the time," said Sellers.
Sandusky says he is innocent and will go out on bail waiting.
The back and forth between Paterno and the representative of the board reflects the trend in recent weeks, during which the graduates of Pennsylvania - and former players, in particular, including the Hall of Fame running back Franco Harris - have questioned the actions of managers and the defendant did not give Paterno the opportunity to defend himself.
Appeared the three municipalities in Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and suburban New York, they do little to calm the situation, and dozens of candidates have expressed their interest now to run for the Council, a position which attracts the interest of volunteers usually less than that.
While everyone involved and said the focus should be on the Sandusky and the plight of the accused, and the abuse scandal in the late Paterno put the acid on the profession of the pound sterling. Paterno has won 409 games and play the Nittany Lions (37) and a bowl of these two national championships. Directed more than 250 players on the road to the NFL.
The Paterno his glasses with thick, rolled up his boots and white socks, synonymous with the state of Pennsylvania, has been in many ways the biblical football coach.
