Message: [QUOTE="BlackKnight76, post: 314714, member: 65"] It was a former football coach (and at the time of some acts, quite possibly a current football coach) who committed the crimes on football trips and in the football facilities. He was caught by another assistant football coach. It was covered up by Joe Paterno, who as football coach, was the most powerful man at the university. The cover up was in order to protect the sanctity of the football program, which as we all know, is the lifeblood of Penn State University despite the fact that it is a very good school in its own right. If not for the obsessive, cult like culture surrounding Penn State football, this is never covered up. If Sandusky was a 30 year employee or associate of ANY other part of Penn State, whether he was a professor, President, Board of Trustee member, whatever, and he was caught on multiple occasions I don't think there's any chance that he's not in jail by 1999 at the latest. It's a football issue. [/QUOTE]
