Ok, if the story is made up why didn’t TB sue him. Also u say that Snduskybeas doing his deeds late at night, i disagree. He was pulling kids out of school, taking them to practice, taking them on bowl trips and also bringing kids home n campus late at night. Come on man if u see all this ****, you don’t think man something isn’t right here. I said it before and I will say it again, they all knew. Joe Pa, coaches, players, administration and the DA (Ray Gricar) who for some odd reason disappeared in 2005. Man I lived in PA when the story broke and couldn’t believe how many intelligent people wouldn’t or should I say couldn’t blame Joe Pa. Now I am seeing some of the same thing on the board when it comes to GS. A man that is know to control every aspect of his program and now u want me to believe that in his 5 years at State Penn working for child molester that he did not see anything. Let me get off my soapbox but I will leave you with this, somebody conscious will get to them and a book will be written that will name names and blow the lid off of Happy Valley.
So if this was so common.. Penn State has, what, maybe 150 people involved daily in their football program? And during all the years Sandusky worked there maybe 500 football players and student managers churned through the program.. Where are the other people who said they know someone who said something about it? Why did it last until Mike McQueary to see something and say something to JoePA? Why are there no records of anyone else seeing something? Why did Sandusky hide his crimes with late night visits to those showers if it was something known that he did and ignored by so many?
You nicely IGNORE all the actual factual data we have about what Sandusky did. You have millions of dollars waiting for actual victims to tell their stories and maybe ONE VICTIM says something happened in the lockerroom when Schiano was still at Penn State. ONE. Same victim says Sandusky abused him in the Sandusky home 5 times and in the car driving him home many times.
You ask why Bradley did not sue him.. same reason Schiano did not.. because the story was told in deposition and only came out later and a calculation is made.. is it worth it to sue? Many people who ARE GUILTY sue but usually it is a counter-suit and used to drive down the settlement that will quiet things down.
Do you see any victims suing Bradley and Schiano for knowing but doing nothing?
Do you see victims naming other Penn State people who knew and did nothing? It is limited to the ones in the administration. They knew.. they heard rumors. The first of which began with that bowl game in the late 90s.. after which Sandusky retired. But they knew about the McQueary sighted incident and did nothing.
That late nineties bowl game thing and complaint by a mother is where you have your first real "evidence" of inaction by Penn State.. and it is circumstantial. That is.. Penn STates "handling" of Sandusky provides circumstantial evidence as to their knowing or suspecting something... you do not see 50-something SUCCESSFUL DCs retiring for no reason. Yet Sandusky retired.. was granted emeritus status and NEVER GOT A JOB OFFER FROM ANOTHER PROGRAM.
Right there you know something was fishy. Something stunk.
But there is ZERO evidence that Schiano or anyone else saw anything back in mid 90s and prior. All you have is this story by McQueary and he had lots of incentive to make that story up.
Why would Bradley tell McQueary that story and ONLY McQueary?
Doesn't make sense.
Why would Bradley DENY telling that story to McQueary when all he had to do was NOT tell him the story in the first place?
I am sure you had a visceral feeling of disgust when you first heard about Sandusky's rapes. You probably thought.. how could McQueary SEE THAT.. and then do NOTHING right then, right there, in that lockerroom? Why did he go home and talk to his dad and then call JoePA to go talk to him the next day?
How could any MAN stand by and let that happen?
I give Schiano and Bradley the benefit of the doubt over Mike McQueary. I give 99% of the human race the benefit of the doubt that had they seen something they would have done something about it right then and there.
But for some reason.. you want to believe Mike McQueary, who probably hates himself every time he looks in the mirror.. knowing what he did with his inaction. He allowed Sandusky to continue his victimization of children. He got his access to the lockerrooms pulled.. that's it. And then he made up a story to share the guilt.
Butthere is nothing, zero, nada.. in Greg Schiano's history before or since to indicate he might be tolerant of seeing something like this. In McQueary's case.. you have his actions. You know he was happy to allow JoePA and PSU call it "horsing around" as long as he got that paid assistants job.
And you want to take his word over Schiano's and Bradley's? Shame on you.
