i know i'll get blasted for this, but maybe he didn't know the severity of the issue


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.

He knew the severity, that is why he covered it up.


I'm not happy he is dead, I'm happy he got fired though. I work at a nursing home, if I saw some CNA groping a resident I would take it to my boss too. If I didn't see the police there that same day I would call them myself. I relate children to old folks at nursing homes all the time.

Paterno was a sanctimonious hypocrite. Always trumpeting how PSU did things the right way. But when the Ws started to slack off what did JoePa do? Bring in a QB to Happy Valley with a sexual assault past.
He proclaimed he would never leave college football to "the Jackie Sherrills and Barry Switzers of the world." Last I checked, those two didn't cover up for an assistant coach anally blasting young boys.
