I didn't even know that people were into college sports who didn't attend the school or have at least a family member who did until I moved to Idaho. I then became aware of some team at a JC in Boise with the same colors of a Kraft macaroni and cheese box and the same logo as a football team in Denver.
Don't most big football schools have the capability to not only have a scandal and cover it up? In most cases it involves the actual players and coaches and not outsiders, let alone children. I think that this affects reactions and attitudes because unlike grades/academics, rape, drugs, and money/gifting, most people don't have gray areas when it comes to child molestation and covering it up.
