Conflicting Reports on Status of Paterno Statue

Earlier today, a Twitter storm ensued when Kimberly Jones of the NFL Network and Bonnie Bernstein of ESPN, along with the Chicago Tribune, reported that the Penn State Board of Trustees had voted to remove the Joe Paterno statue.

Shortly after those tweets, several members of the Board of Trustees responded, refuting the reports.
