What’s Next For Penn State?

The Freeh Report

The investigation found that some of the most powerful men at the university, President Graham Spanier, Senior Vice President of Finance and Business Gary Schultz, Athletic Director Tim Curley, and Head Football Coach Joe Paterno, knew about Jerry Sandusky’s sexual abuse of young boys and they all decided to conceal it. Although it was always somewhat assumed that these men refused to report the actions of Sandusky, this report makes it official after a long, 8 month investigation that reviewed over 3.5 million

The Penn State Scandal

Allegations
          Serious charges have been filed against former Penn State defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky regarding his sexual abuse of at least nine children over the span of 15 years. In addition, Penn State’s athletic director has stepped down. This case will most likely rock the State College campus in a way that it may not be able to bounce back from, which is a shame considering the history and tradition of the football program and its legendary coach.

Jerry Sandusky was the man who made Penn State into Linebacker U., his defensive schemes helped lead the Nittany Lions, under head coach Joe Paterno, to two national championships in 1982 and 1986.
