And yet he was fired. I guess he wasn't the "most", was he???
To try and pretend he new nothing about this disgraceful incident is pure fantasy.
Who is saying that??? What he knew he acted upon??? Did you read the Freeh report???
Go ahead and stick you heads in the sand
I prefer to stick mine in the pages of the reports -- the Freeh and the Thornburg and others. You should try it sometime.
Tom Corbett was elected Governor of Pennsylvania.
As governor, he was an ex-oficio member of the Penn State Board of Trustees. As the former Attorney General of Pennsylvania, he was also privy to the details of the Sandusky investigation. As a trustee of Penn State he had a fiduciary responsibility to do whatever it took -- without compromising any confidentiality of the Sandusky investigation -- to act in the best interests of the university. Firing Paterno was really the only course of action for the Board of Trustees to take once Corbett announced his decision to attend that formal meeting of the board in November 2011.
And yet he was fired. I guess he wasn't the "most", was he??? [Uncle Chip]
Chip, please don't retroactively plead ignorance here; Ontap is referencing all those years where witness McQueary was bumped from grad student (at time he saw Sandusky & the kid in the showers) --> WR coach --> plus head of Penn State football recruiting.

"Four of the most powerful people at The Pennsylvania State University -- President Graham B. Spanier, Senior Vice President-Finance Gary C. Schultz, Athletic Director Timothy M. Curley and Head Football Coach Joseph V. Paterno -- failed to protect against a child sexual predator harming children for over a decade," according to the report. "These men concealed Sandusky's activities from the Board of Trustees, the University community and authorities. They exhibited a striking lack of empathy for Sandusky's victims by failing to inquire as to their safety and well-being, especially by not attempting to determine the identity of the child who Sandusky assaulted in the Lasch Building in 2001.
