What I can tell you is I know for a fact that the NCAA pressed PSU in negotiations in private with Erickson along with advisors from the FBI. The BOT was in fact given limited info to prevent leaks and some BOT members were not invited for a reason. Which is why they were so pissed and talked about an appeal. The NCAA and PSU had a goal to get the sanctions handed out before fall camp started and definitely before students returned to avoid riots and lewd behavior from a larger mass of confused/angry 18-22 year olds.
The FBI has been working on this for almost 18 months from my understanding - how I know this is because some of my friends who work at PSU were questioned by the FBI as far back as summer of last year. My friends are just staffers an professors so I am sure they were not interviewed first.
Also - back in fall of last year - 8-10 vans were parked outside of "the second mile" office on Atherton and there were federal agents taking boxes of files and computers out of there. Sandusky's home was seized at night and all his files and personal computers were taken. Amendola was pissed because he had to work with scanned copies of files and complained that he was in an unfair position to defend his client because the prosecution was light years ahead of him and because there was so much info - he requested more time to properly prepare a defense. The main reason he did not put Sandusky on the stand is because he felt the prosecution had more info than he had and would get pummeled. The judge denied his request.
Many PSU fans complained that certain figures at PSU were never interviewed by Freeh and this proved his report to be worthless. The fact is the Attorney General prohibited Freeh to interview certain "people of interest" because they did not want it to jeapordize what the Feds were working in. Case in point - when Freeh was poking around Spanier questioned what was going on and immediately filed a suit to retrieve all his email history- he and his attorneys met with the Feds and he backed off.
Mad Dog (radio guy) started to report about a child sex ring and the connections to the second mile and Sandusky. All of the sudden he shut his mouth and PSU fans were saying it was because he was full of shit - but actually the FBI advised him to put a sock in it as they were already investigating it.

I've been all over the state and joke about the smell (and it does have a distinct odor in certain areas) but, as is true of all states, there are some truly nice areas. A client of mine is in Pittstown. The owner has a beautiful home on a nice piece of land. You would be hard pressed to find anyone unwilling to live where they live.
Shrug uninformed or obviously biased statements off and remember what it feels like when reading similar remarks about other states.

Thanks for the insight.
For all you posters that can't stand to type the words Penn State/PSU, or whatever, blame the school all you want but at the end of the day if any of this is true, it appears that this goes much deeper than PSU. Call me a homer all you want but we're talking about a state wide coverup over possibly multiple decades encompassing law enforcement officials, state legislators, governor's, etc. Could I be grasping at straws on this? Sure, but if any of this is true, PSU isn't the only fall guy in this - the entire state of PA would be deemed corrupt and a disgrace to the entire U.S.

No, it would be much sadder. But how much of a burden should the Penn state community take? Our administrators failed us... beyond that, why should "we" get the finger pointed our way? You are talkingto people who had as much to do with this as you did... nothing.

I know you didn't have anything to do with it but in the end any organization or person that had anything to do with this is totally in the wrong. I'm not saying nuke penn st i just think its silly to try and act like other peoples culpability diminishes the higher ups at your universities fault or makes it somehow better to get the finger pointing multiple directions instead of one. Anyone and unfortunately any entity associated with the coverup deserves total blame. Of course there is going to be collateral damage for your university. It is unreasonable to expect a flawed soceity to act 100 percent correctly. There is always collateral damage in instances of extreme shit.
