Former school president Graham Spanier, athletic director Tim Curley and vice president Gary Schultz decided that not alerting the police would be "humane" to Sandusky. Quote Link to comment
ADS Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 This is a certain situation where a university should take a step back and look at maybe taking a few years off from football. This whole thing is old news, but it has left a huge black eye that may never be healed. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 It's not the football program that's at fault, though. It's the Administration. The football team is a bystander for the most part. Quote Link to comment

Nebula Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Un...freakin...believable. I feel like I just drank an entire gallon of milk that expired three months ago. Yet, I have a level of pride for that witness that I can't even articulate. I hope he holds his head up high. He did nothing, nothing wrong. That whole part about being the Penn State mascot particularly made me viciously angry...that's what these sick fu#*$ do. Somehow twist the scenario into one where the victim feels like they bear some degree of responsibility for what is happening to them. I can only hope that every one of these men that were tortured by this m-f'r know they aren't at fault in ANY way. f#*k Jerry Sandusky. I seriously hope that he can somehow be made to suffer the way he made his victims suffer. UGH. Feel straight up sick. 3 Quote Link to comment
carlfense Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 The football program is also responsible. They should have gone directly to the police when sending an email to the administration didn't get results. 1 Quote Link to comment

knapplc Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Parts of the football program are responsible, but you have to remember that there are hundreds of people involved in Penn State football, from players to coaches to administration to staff. They are not all responsible for this; only a tiny percentage is. I would hate to see Penn State football as a whole punished for this. 1 Quote Link to comment

I'm not saying that they are all responsible. I'm saying that parts of the football program could and should have ended this years ago and spared many youths from this type of abuse.

HuskerFanChuck Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 All I know is, when information like this comes out, I'm VERY glad that Spanier moved on. If someone is that lax on ethics in what SHOULD have been a clear cut situation, who knows what could have happened. Nebula was exactly right about the type of stand-up person that shed the light on this information. Quote Link to comment
huKSer Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Good ol' "Jer" is going to take the stand? Did his attorney see his interview on TV? How can the attorney be that inept? Quote Link to comment
carlfense Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 Maybe the attorney's own tendencies are clouding his judgment. Quote Link to comment
