Let me preface this by saying, outside of my love for B10 athletics, I have no connection to PSU. Regardless of what happens to JoePa, my life will go on. I also don't want to minimize the alleged victims' trauma, as no one should have to experience this.
That said, I agree with you, psusue.
Everyone is piling on JoePa because of his position. I haven't seen anything about Second Mile allowing Sandusky to interact with children until 2008. I have seen few articles addressing the fact that the police and child welfare
were aware of the 1998 event. Why weren't there any charges filed at that point? Why wasn't a caseworker tasked with following up with Sandusky after that?
Most of what I've seen has said that JoePa should have taken this a step further by banning Sandusky from campus. Yes, football is a big deal, but that's not his job. The person whose job it is (Schultz) HAS been charged.
