About 200 Penn State students rallied outside Joe Paterno’s State College home, beginning about 6 p.m., in a show of support for the embattled coach.

The crowd, alternately chanted such things as “go home media,” and “we love JoePa,” and at one point began singing Penn State’s alma mater.

When Paterno arrived on the street, they tried to block the the media’s view of him.

Paterno, when he got inside his home, spoke to the students from a window, saying he was proud of them. He then stepped out of his house and spoke to the gathered students.

When he turned to go back inside, they began chanting "We love JoePA!" 

He turned around. "I love you too," he said.

Maybe Joe Paterno is gaining back some supporters.

A Quinnipiac University poll released Thursday shows a very slight uptick in the percentage of Pennsylvania voters who have a favorable opinion of the late football coach whose reputation was put through the ringer over the past year and a half from the Jerry Sandusky scandal. The poll found 47 percent of those surveyed have a favorable take on Paterno, with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.
