Penn State, already litigation weary, is at the forefront of a new battle - college football concussion lawsuits
This November, it will be five years since Penn State plunged into the depths of college football scandal. Jerry Sandusky was arrested on November 5, 2011 and was charged by the Commonwealth with 48 counts of child sexual abuse and endangerment. I won't bother to bore you by reciting the lurid details and its subsequent impact on the University, its alumni base, and its student body. Indeed, much has been written, here and elsewhere, about those subjects. The facts of those stories bear little upon the topic of today's discussion.
