PSU AD Curley: No Timetable on Paterno

Penn State AD Tim Curley said at a presser today that there's no timetable on Paterno's exit.

Q. Joe (Paterno) is going into the last year of his contract. Are you looking to get something done in terms of extension or plan for the future?

"We're just visiting in the off-season and when we have something to report, we will. We don't have any specific timetables. We've had some calendar issues in terms of getting together. Those will be resolved. We've already met once and will continue to meet and keep our discussions going."

Q. What about the women's basketball program? Obviously they had a tough ending of the year. What are your thoughts?

"I've been really pleased with the transition with Coquese (Washington) and her staff. Obviously, the last part of the calendar didn't work in our direction. I really just see good things there. We're all frustrated it didn't end on a better note. Everything I can tell, she's got the makings of everything we thought she could do when we hired her."

Q. You said you met once with Joe. Can you go into any detail?

"No, I really don't want to go into detail. We indicated we'd get together and we have since that last time we talked. Those discussions are going to continue. Once we feel like we have something to report, we will at that time."

Q. Is it important to get something done by spring practice?

"I don't think there's any deadline that's super imperative right now. Obviously when spring practice starts he gets pretty tied-up and pretty focused, but I wouldn't put a deadline on it."
