As a Pitt fans, I've never been a big fan of Joe because he always beat us. That being said I've always respected him. Since Joe appropriately reported the 2001 incident, there is no reason to believe he wouldn't have done the same thing in 1976.
Uh Oh - 1976???

Thanks, Pantherrevival.
One of the most ILLOGICAL things about this being a PSU Football Scandal/Cover-up is that BOTH times that there was SOLID EVIDENCE that a Sandusky incident was known to the football staff/athletic department, those incidents WERE reported up the chain AND OUTSIDE the University.
Even more illogical is that a full investigation was conducted in 1998 -- when Sandusky was an ACTIVE COACH & DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR -- but in 2001, PSU didn't do anything because of the bad publicity if a RETIRED SANDUSKY was under investigation.
The media who stirs up this crap is truly are impervious to logic.
As I posted earlier, I'm predicting a claim(s) from 1950, JVP's first year as Assistant Coach, when Sandusky was 6 and was obviously assaulting other kindergartners and first graders. JVP ignored those alerts so that he could eventually become Head Coach. About as believable as the rest of this tripe.
Isn't this more like a 50 year old makes up a story of abuse when he was 8 to get rich?
Someone who believes this story, please explain how and why did a kid go straight Joe? JS certainly wasn't famous, Joe was barely famous. How did he get access and why go to the coach. Simply not believable.
Has anthony chimed in regarding the sealed documents? Has he seen the deposition or have any details?
Try reading former FBI agent Ken Lanning's manual on the behaviors of victims and perpetrators. That manual is used to train CSA investigators and it very clearly states that investigators have to ASSESS the validity of victim's stories. One of the points Lanning makes is that in highly publicized cases, victims will come forward and make statements that are false, especially when there is money involved.
In this case, there are at least four claimants whose stories are not consistent Sandusky's established modus operandi. PSU paid all of them.
Considering our Alumni Association President KEVIN STEELE is a DISTRICT ATTORNEY, albeit from MontCo, wouldn't SUSPECTED FRAUD be in his wheelhouse - and wouldn't a DISTRICT ATTORNEY who deals in FACTS - have SOMETHING to say about @PennLive putting out such an IRRESPONSIBLE story that smears and inflames based on the THINNEST EVIDENCE.
I know the PSAA is lurking on this thread <waves hi> So this rant is for you. Sue and her family and the Alumni Family are getting torched over the crap @PennLive spews.
DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT KEVIN. Step on @PennLive's neck over this. You too PAUL CLIFFORD.
Pfft...there are tailgate menus to prepare. No time for such trivialities.
Penn Live is a Pitt idiot den, and the Panturd Liar is a complete joke jumping into a pile of crap.
Great post. We ARE getting torched. This afternoon saw CNN scroll that lasted close to a minute. Although they were careful not to state it as fact--only if you knew the background as I did-- to the general viewer it would be read as fact.
PSU's decision to pay settlements to victims was solely for the purpose of PILING UP EVIDENCE in the court of public opinion that PSU officials were responsible for Sandusky's offenses. of course, Dunham, Lubert, Frazier, and the other "masterminds" thought it wasn't going to cost Dear Old State any money because they expected PMA to pay for it.
When PMA provided the reality check that PSU wasn't covered for incidents after 1992, PSU countersued stating they paid in premiums for 50 years and deserved coverage.
This was a MAJOR fiduciary failure and an ETHICAL failure of the highest order.
As for the insurance fraud, Steele doesn't have the stones to even look into it.

That was Bellfonte PD. IIRC. A 2 or 3 man department investigating a missing county DA.

Stelle and Clifford won't do anything... they are seeking higher ground eventually and there are too big of political players involved in this for them to do anything.... It's like in the movie braveheart where the father tells his son to let william wallace go as the land will then be their's for the taking.... Steele knows if he keeps quiet he will be rewarded for his silence...
My goodness Adam T. He got on the boat for a three hour tour and ended up stranded on a desert island. No wonder he supported Mr. Cocco. He is thrashing in the tar pit with all of the unclean with no hope to get out. If he is lucky the record will show he abstained on all of the votes. No political career for you if failure of fiduciary responsibilty ever comes to pass.
out of curiosity, does anyone remember when exactly joepa became God? y'know, i was around in 1976 and he was respected, no doubt, but Godlike? nah. 1986? moving closer. 1998? almost there. i'm, guessing he became God in 2001 (or is that 2002, MMQ?... mikey has the timeline down better than i do). see, i can almost buy that in 2001 some dolt believed joepa to be the second coming and would think that by talking to him about something it would be the same as talking with the Almighty and "the right thing" would follow.
but for, ummm, heaven's sake... 19 bloody 76? seriously? some retard decided that he'd confide in the Joe Deity and that would take care of everything? all is well?
the stupidity that runs rampant in the world is almost astonishing... aka, the number of mental rejects with IQ's not even approaching triple digits. aka... the idiots in charge of the rabble. most living at spitt.
Let me get this straight. One of the major "sources" Ganim used for her CNN article is Bernie McCue? All I can say is UNBELIEVABLE! What is she crazy?... To rely on him as a source of anything vaguely considered credible is a bad joke! To say that McCue is whacko would rank as one of the biggest understatements ever made! Someone needs to take her to task for being more than incredibly stupid. For anyone that has crossed paths with McCue knows, using him as a source of information shows how desperate Ganim must be to try to once again be considered relevant.
OldTiredLion's visual of Putz and Baldwin is worse. Much worse.
