Rumors about Sandusky go way back to the 1990’s.
Joe Paterno knew about Sandusky’s peccadilloes. Half of his staff knew about the creep. They knew and did nothing about it.
I’m convinced that everyone in college football knew Sandusky was a pervert. He was the chief architect of one of the finest college defenses, and then chose to walk away from it. That was curious enough, but more curious was that in the years after he walked away and his crimes became public knowledge, how many college head coaching positions opened up? And Sandusky’s name was never ever mentioned as a possibility.
Some mid-level team from a major conference never thought about him? Only one reason; they knew he was a monster.
