Paterno admitted, prior to his death, that HE didn’t do enough and should have done more. I heard him say it. What other proof do you need?

He also said that he trusted others to do their jobs -- those who knew more about the situation than him.

Yeh -- he should have done the athletic director's job, the vice-president's job, the president's job, the chief of police's job, the CEO of TSM's job, the DPW's and CYS's job for them -- instead of just his own. But that is not how things work in football, at universities and in life.

In retrospect everybody should have done more -- even YOU.

If somebody told me one of my charges was screwing a child, especially AT the work place, the cops would be called immendiatley. Even YOU would do that.

“even YOU.”

Now what could I have possibly done to protect those children who Paterno knew were being molested?

No one told me that they were being molested.

Had someone told me instead of Paterno then Sandusky would have been in prison in 1998. :-)
