Message: [QUOTE="TinyManInside, post: 75215, member: 1251"] I think what K is saying is that things like this were handled differently a long time ago. I would not be surprised if Paterno brokered Sandusky's 99 retirement and basically just said "Hey, knock it off", thinking that would be enough to get him to stop. Paterno's an old school guy, I'm not sure that 'back in the day' (I'm not talking '99, I'm talking '75) people fully understood the pathology involved in an act like this. Heinous acts like this - they are compulsory, not something that you can just turn off. But regardless, I think a lot of these coaches making comments are reflecting on what would happen to their own legacies if faced with scandal. Very narcissistic, all of them. [/QUOTE]
