of one man. Nor should they be maligned. Penn State is a classy institution, with one of the classiest coaches in the history of college football (Paterno was like Lavell), and they do not deserve to be maligned for the actions of one man. And just how "complicit" people were will never be known, no matter how much speculation and retrofitting hindsight is attempted to be applied.
I absolutely cannot believe that JoPa (and certainly not the PSU fans) were the least bit complicit in what happened - most likely just completely unaware.
