Amazing that people like you (and what is propped up as "leadership" at PSU) continue to enjoy your roles as accelerant.
Tim Bream
- Thread starter jerseylion109
- Start date
We don't know if they held him down or not. It doesn't matter because this is part of the PA law.
For purposes of this definition, any activity as described in this definition upon which the initiation or admission into or affiliation with or continued membership in an organization is directly or indirectly conditioned shall be presumed to be "forced" activity, the willingness of an individual to participate in such activity notwithstanding.
And it most certainly has nothing to do with CJF or the PSU Football Program whatsoever as Tim Bream was not hired by Coach Franklin, nor does he report to CJF. Bream was hired by Joyner in 2012 after Joyner was made "Athletic Director" at PSU (with zero experience) by the OG BOT, which Joyner was a member of prior to being named AD. Bream is an "Assistant Athletic Director" by title and now reports to Joyner's successor, Sandy Barbour.
He very well could have but let be honest any trainer would have done the same thing. How many trainers do you think tell a player who says they are suicidal and with Joey past to just go home?
Not really clear from that article that Bream reports directly to Barbour. Maybe Scott Lynch. And from the description of his responsibilities (for athletic training for all teams), it's unlikely that he reports to Franklin, or to Franklin alone.
The cop is correct as to what? And I didn't call him a liar, but I did, and still do, call you an asshole.
That's fair, but the Julius incident doesn't exactly portray Bream as callous, does it?
Because Ira's basement was occupied?
Really? You drew that conclusion from the same place that you draw others. With the frequency that you do that, make sure your nails are trimmed, and not by chewing them.
Actually, I believe Bream originally did report to Barbour after she assumed control as the AD (Bream was hired by Joyner in Feb 2012, who he knew from working together on the US Olympic Training Staff - HERE IS THE PSU AD PRESS RELEASE FROM THE HIRING). However, Barbour announced a major "reorganization" of the Athletic Department in March 2015 (she assumed her role as new PSU AD in July 2014) - HERE IS THE PSU AD's FORMAL PRESS RELEASE REGARDING THE MARCH 2015 REORGANIZATION.
If I'm reading that correctly, Barbour only has 4 direct reports:
- Deputy AD & COO Phil Esten,
- Senior Associate AD for Administration Lynn Holleran,
- Senior Associate AD for Student-Athlete Performance, Health and Welfare Charmelle Green, and
- Senior Associate AD for Finance and Business Operations Rick Kaluza

There is your fall person... Sandy and all politicians are always going to have fall person they can blame and not take the direct hit
Okay, it does look like Bream reports up to Charmelle Green (lucky him), but it's not clear if he has any intermediate reporting lines, solid or dotted. I do think the evidence supports the conclusion that Franklin would not be able to unilaterally or independently fire him.
Ira and Joyner were also the big "sponsors" of Sandusky and his personal charity, The Second Mile, in regards to improperly giving away PSU's Assets and Resources (i.e., promoters of using PSU Resources and Assets to benefit JS and his fraudulent private charity especially after his retirement until early 2009....including the gifting of some 45 Acres of PSU Land in April 2002 so JS could build his dream Campus HQ for TSM less than a year after PSU Executive Athletic Staff had rescinded TSM's privileges and kicked them off campus due to MM's HR Report in 2001 - there is simply no way the PSU BOT can claim they didn't know JS's TSM activities were kicked off campus in 2001 and why it was done!). Sandusky's relationship with Lubert, Joyner and Surma dated all the way back to the early 1970s (in fact, I'm pretty sure Surma's brother, who played football at PSU, lived with Sandusky for part of his time at PSU).

He's lived in worse places than that. In fact, he's come quite far from when he lived in a cabin by the river.
Contempt of court hearing set for tim bream for Aug 30th...nothing to see here right guys!!!
It's pretty routine until Stacy starts screaming at everyone, including the gallery. It's fascinating that people's lives are being affected/changed and it's just a straight joke in there. It's actually more entertaining than the shows on tv, except more drawn out. If you took 30 minutes of highlights, it's way funnier than judge judy or what have you.

So what do you want Sandy/Chamelle to do put him on paid leave? Ok call them up and express your feelings. Terminate him with out all the facts out is a risky proposition at this point.
Isn't the last part the Penn State Way? jerseylion is fully on board with that.
The fact that they now have a contempt hearing says that it is time to cut him loose.
