About Men in White

On November 5, 2011, the news that Jerry Sandusky had been charged with forty counts of child molestation rocked Penn State’s leafy campus, unseating the university president, the athletic director, and head coach Joe Paterno―devastating the football program he had erected and diligently maintained over half a century.

A rich, rousing sports story, Men in White recounts the saga of the student athletes who elected to stay and rebuild the program in the face of crippling NCAA sanctions, blistering heat from the outraged media, and radio silence from the adults in the school’s administration. With the once proud program in free fall, the young men rallied behind an ideal—Paterno's success with honor—and refused to back down, toiling through five long seasons and two head coaching changes to rehabilitate the program, culminating in the stirring come-from-behind victory against Wisconsin in the 2016 Big Ten Championship Game.

This is their uplifting story—in their own words.
