I've always thought that from the very beginning of the Sandusky mess there were academics at Penn State who actively promoted the "bad football culture enabled the pedophile" narrative because they harbored a lot of resentment towards football in general and maybe even Paterno specifically. I've always believed that Rodney Erickson was one of these people. They are, frankly, idiots for their inability to see how the academic side of the university has benefited from football (how do you like that library?). They were even bigger idiots for not understanding the massive damage that narrative would do to Penn State and its alumni. I think that there's a good chance that this is part of the reason that Barron et al are working so hard to keep the Freeh source materials secret.
