Didn't Paterno then report that to the AD/President and the AD/President then did nothing? If I'm Joe Paterno in that situation, my job is to report the incident to the proper people to investigate to see what was what. If those people never did anything, I would probably assume the investigation turned up to be nothing. He's a football coach. He is not an investigator of criminal activity.

You can theorize all you like. Joe Paterno made one startling comment before his death. "I wish I had done more." And if one of my coaches said he saw a 10-year-old boy in the shower being sexually molested by my DC, I would be more than motivated to investigate it myself.

Any indication that Saban ever investigated any crime himself? Has any coach ever done a legal investigation? That's not what coaches do. In fact, it would probably be seen as obstruction.

What Paterno did is exactly what coaches today are supposed to do. That's the current protocol. Paterno was told of horseplay and reported it to his AD, school president, and the head of security.

The incident reported by the assistant coach? Sandusky was found innocent. The only one he was cleared of. Sandusky hadn't been a coach in years. He was an ex-coach with access to facilities.

Be sure I have spent many hours reading on this. I don't take my facts from ESPN. Sandusky is in jail as he should be.
