Oh there are totally Paterno truthers. Having spent the last 11 years living in eastern PA, there was almost more of an uproar amongst PSU fans when Paterno got his wins taken away than there was when the whole Sandusky mess was first coming to light. And then when he got his wins back postmortem like 3 years later there were PSU fans dancing in the streets and pounding their chests about how wrong it was to include the great JoePa in the punitive measures. Just really flabbergasted me that these people couldn't even fathom that Paterno could've known. And to a greater extent, they couldn't understand how the PSU football program could possibly be held in any way accountable for what Sandusky did.
