agreed... i know i'll get blasted for this, but maybe he didn't know the severity of the issue.. there's a lot of things that we pretend to know but really don't.. i'm not going to say that he's totally innocent, because i think that in some way, this whole mess could have been avoided or stopped, but i really don't know what kind of involvement joe paterno had in this situation..



really sad all around

I kind of agree, i think he was probably willfully naive about the whole thing. But he didn't actually witness anything, so just going to the cops with hearsay " My GA MQuery saw..." does absolutely nothing. He clearly should have pushed the higher ups to call the police and let them investigate after what McQuery told him given there were past allegations.

"maybe he didn't know the severity of the issue"

My argument would be, anything he knew about a coach on his staff and young boys was severe. This is no way you can sugar coat that for me.
