What happened? Penn State happened, thats what!

PSU had everyone on edge, from administrators to the media, to the fans.
After PSU, ESPN reached out to Davis to see if he could find someone to corroborate his accusations.
Viola, here came Lang & here we are today!
PSU waited almost 3 days after the the Sandusky arrest happened, before they issued a statement of any kind, probably due to shock.
Cantor reacted IMMEDIATELY, so that there would be NO DOUBTS  that our situation was different. The admins have handled this thing in exemplary fashion, IMO, completely diffusing any feeding frenzy that would've occurred, had we stumbled.
The "new" evidence would have to be the corroboration of Lang.
No one was gonna sit this one out after ESPN went haywire: not the cops, the media, SU, the DA, JB, etc.
And don't surprised if, just like PSU, we don't hear from the NCAA at some point.

PSU changed the SOP for this type of crisis by showing us what NOT to do. I submit we wouldn't be here today, if not for the PSU situation.
