I'm not sure people on here realize, but many if not most of the big time boosters for Penn State, as well as their general fans, continue to deny JoePa has any culpability. They are currently trying to clear his name. They simply put their heads in the sand and ignore the facts.

Why? Because they are just like their coach was. The reputation of their school is more important than the rape of children. It's mind boggling, but it's the way Penn State fans are programmed.


The Happy Valley documentary put a face on this. State College is an arse backwards town.

I know this old guy through business. Graduate and huge donor. I would see him a couple times a year. The entire time, he would scream outrage about what the press and the rest of America was doing to this gentle man's persona. He's convinced JoePa, and the university, had no idea it was happening and hold no responsibility. Whatsoever. None.

And he says most graduates feel exactly as he does. Sandusky was just one minor bad apple in the midst of thousands of fantastic apples. So we shouldn't go forming opinions based on one slightly bad apple.
