From the New York Times:
Quote:
“I think the point people are trying to make is the media is responsible for JoePa going down,” said a freshman, Mike Clark, 18...
Demonstrators tore down two lamp posts, one falling into a crowd. They also threw rocks and fireworks at the police, who responded with pepper spray. The crowd undulated like an accordion, with the students crowding the police and the officers pushing them back.
“We got rowdy, and we got maced,” Jeff Heim, 19, said rubbing his red, teary eyes. “But make no mistake, the board started this riot by firing our coach. They tarnished a legend.”

I don't understand the riots in support of him, or blaming the media and the board. At all.
