JoePa was the most powerful man at the university and he did the least he could.  You ask how horrible these men would have to be? They would have to be as horrible as they were and are.

The fact that you construct a hypothetical and frame it through the lens of what would be better or worse for the program is exactly the problem that permeates your fan base.

There are good people who do bad things and there are bad people who do bad things. Sandusky is an evil person who did evil things.
JoePa is a bad person who did bad things.

He had the power to do more, to inquire, put pressure on the school and authorities and then shut the door on sandusky from the program forever and he didn't, period.

It's child rape. It's child rape. The man was a monster and preyed on the weakest and most vulnerable. And JoePa had a chance to do more and he did not.

Jerry Sandusky terrorized those children and JoePa told his AD. Sounds about right for a guy with a statue and a blindly faithful community worshiping the ground he walks on.
