I agree with this. McQueary was one of a slew of people who things ranging from, at best, questionable, all the way down to knowing about, profiting from, covering up, enabling and helping a man in a position of power over children rape them. He's also one of the few people who has done anything substantial about it in testifying before the grand jury without being charged with perjury. Even though it took him a decade. I'm kind of shocked he's still around in that he hasn't asked about time off, and agreed with the admin that he'd take a break with pay or something, because who even wants to talk to him at this point? Do you think he's going to get any coaching done? I doubt it. But to actually remove him, fire one of the only people to do something, when the entire administration has been stonewalling and enabling the actual pedophile for so long, that's just a terrible idea.McQueary is probably a whistleblower at this point. He would likely sue PSU if he got fired. Worse, the decision would be spun in some quarters as a Paterno loyalist (Bradley) firing the man who brought Paterno down. Bradley couldn't fire McQ if he wanted to.
When PSU hires a permanent head coach this winter, his first act will be to fire all the assistants, including McQueary. And that's how it should be. Don't give the guy a chance to play the martyr.
As has been said Bradley stated that he hasn't even talked with the new AD about McQueary, and he really doesn't seem to know much about what's going on in general. I think he handled himself pretty well, and while everyone wants to basically fire everyone at the school, that's not realistic at all. As far as I can tell there have been no allegations about Bradley as of yet so removing him seems rash to me as long as they remove all of the major players in the scandal. Honestly I'd be pretty shocked if McQueary was on the field, or anywhere he could be shown on TV, on Saturday. If his face is shown between a crowd of cheering PSU fans they should basically just pack up the entire football program, box it up, and let it get moldy in the basement.
Bradley was also asked pretty much point blank about whether he thought everyone should be fired soon, and he said something like "that's up to the board". He sounded like he knew it was an inevitability for just about everyone involved with the program sooner or later.
