Which report led to Paterno's wins being initially vacated?

  • Powers Report

  • Paterno Report

  • Freeh Report

  • Thompson Report

Answer

The Freeh Report, commissioned by Penn State University in the aftermath of the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal, found that head football coach Joe Paterno and other university officials had failed to properly respond to allegations against Sandusky. As a result, the NCAA vacated all of Paterno's wins from 1998 to 2011, effectively erasing 14 seasons from the team's record books.
