Penn St. head football coach Joe Paterno will announce today that he will retire at the end of the current football season ... this according to the Associated Press.
84-year-old Paterno is under heavy fire for his role in a child molestation scandal.
Officials say Paterno had knowledge that former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky had allegedly sexually abused a pre-teen boy in the showers in the Penn State locker room back in 2002.
Paterno reported the incident to the athletic director at Penn State -- but failed to notify the police.
The police commissioner says Paterno has not been accused of legal wrongdoing, but claims Paterno did fulfill his "moral responsibility."
