I agree Arrington's priorities are screwed up, but for different reasons.  I don't think it would have been the end of the world if they'd hired Bradley - obviously the search for an outsider wasn't going well, they weren't going to hire a pee-wee coach...so Bradley might have ended up the only viable option for football reasons and left PSU dealing with the PR issues of hiring him.  But they found an outsider with a credible background that was willing to have his career die in the middle of nowhere in central PA so good for them, I guess.

The problem I have with the Arrington types is that when the program is in duress is not the time to be making public comments of dissent.  Whether PSU people agreed with the hire before it was made or not, now is the time to stand behind the hire and present a unified front.  Otherwise you're not really a PSU guy, and are showing by your lack of character that is truth you never really were.  The going got tough...and he's now a turncoat.

So there's no "new level" here, that's just witch hunt mentality nonsense.  He's certainly entitled to feel Bradley should have been hired.  But Arrington and the other alums like him do need to re-evaluate their priorities because this doesn't reflect well on him personally for reasons vastly different than the "supports sex abuse and abusers" theme some on here are pushing.
