Larry or Paul?

The one on the BoT who helped set up Joe, and participated in the statue removal.

It was Paul who was the set up artist. He was later voted off the board because of his treachery.

A great Penn State player. I remember a Sports Illustrated article
on his recruitment along with the rest of that class. R.I.P. Matt.

Yes, that was one of the best ever PSU articles in Sports Illustrated, surely in the top three. It was of a “why exactly did you come to Penn State” vibe. Tough guys, good people, you were proud to have them as classmates.

Matt - Was kind and thoughtful throughout his life. Never acted like he was special. Truly, a class act.

Beautiful tribute.

Quote from Ditka years ago - not sure when:

"I think Matt likes to fly under the radar," Ditka said. "He always did, he always will. He was Walter's running mate, he was the one who made it all happen back there. He was as good a blocking fullback who ever played the game in my opinion. He kept Walter in line, told him where to go some of the time. But he did not want or expect any credit."

Does anyone know why he passed? Article I read said in his sleep but wondering if he was sick because 68 is way too young. Had a few interactions with him when I worked at the stadium back in the day when his son played. Always very respectful of the lowly stadium employees(which I was) and always followed the rules.

Nice that Coach Campbell gave his condolences to the Suhey family at his press conference today.

Heart issues (might have been a heart attack but can’t confirm).
