Uh oh. Scott Paterno has gone rogue.
Responding on his Twitter to the New York Times report which says Penn State is planning Joe Paterno’s exit, Scott had this to say:
Then, in response to questions about his father holding his own press conference, Scott told reporters that he was “working on [making it happen].”
This is spiraling out of control in fantastic fashion.
The school’s president may be dickless. Paterno may be helpless. But, Scott, a lawyer and (aspiring?) politico, plays by nobody’s rules– this could get wild.

This is approaching O.J. levels. I'm half-expecting to see Joe Pa fleeing on the Turnpike in a white Bronco (the role of A.C. Cowlings being played by son Scott).
