Baylor could be worse. They seem to actually encourage the behavior and not try to stop it even now. Ped State just seems to be in defiant denial
PSU's handling of Sandusky was similar to the Catholic church or schools which have let sexual predators move from school to school based on their silence (the
let's bury our head in the sand and hope this goes away approach).
Aside from the notoriety, would say that PSU's athletics and FB in particular is very diff. from Baylor.
Penn State makes sure that its players attend class and have no issue suspending players (even for bowl games) for academics.
Nothing like some Christian values!
Aside from Baylor and the hiring of Baylor's former AD by Liberty
"University" - one certainly has to wonder (but then again, look at Faux News - promoting
family values and yet was a cesspool behind the scenes; and even in front of the camera was all about showing the
assets of their female on-air talent).
Gotta love the hypocrisy of the
Bible Belt.
Just look at Kentucky.
The flagship state school hired a head coach who has had question-marks about his
ethics at virtually every stop in his career, but the fans were ecstatic in the hiring.
And the other big sports school has a cesspool for its revenue programs - led by 2 coaches who have broken their marriage vows (yes, let's
protect the sanctity of marriage).
Yeah, the Baylor basketball player who shot and killed a teammate was no big deal.....
Or then head coach Bliss trying to frame the dead player as a drug dealer in order to cover up his own wrong-doing in having made illicit tuition payments for players.
And heading back to Texas, there's good ol' SMU - which had no problem hiring another ethically challenged coach in Larry Brown.
But hey, it worked.
Under Brown, SMU won its 1st conf title in 22 years and went to the NCAAs in Brown's 3rd year; the next season was banned from the NCAAs and Brown resigned, but under their new coach, SMU made the NCAAs again this year.
