05:57 AM ET 10.11 | Penn State coach Joe Paterno confirmed for the first time that he had a verbal run-in with a female driver Friday after a near accident on campus. Message boards have been full of rumored accounts of the incident, but Paterno made no secret of it. According to the sources, Paterno said after his close call he pulled his car over to the curb and got out. He then approached the other vehicle and shook his finger at the driver. He warned her to, "Watch it." "Be careful," Paterno said. "I have your license number, and I will call the police on you." According to the sources, Paterno said a male passenger then walked up and chastised him, saying, "That's my wife you're talking to." Paterno said, "That's your problem."
