THE CREEPIEST SANDUSKY PHOTO SO FAR (Deadspin.com) |
University president Rod Erickson promised the donation
Thursday morning, a day after he and other administrators faced pointed
questions at a student-organized town hall forum.
Erickson told The Associated Press in an interview Thursday
that the Big Ten bowl revenue, which usually goes back to the athletic
department, will go to the Pennsylvania Coalition Against Rape and the National
Sexual Violence Resource Center.
"This presents an excellent opportunity for Penn State
to raise the national visibility of this issue," Erickson said. "Our
students and fans are focused on a cause to play for, to cheer for."
Meanwhile, he claims bring the number of Sandusky's criminal
accusers to 10 and he now faces more than 50 charges stemming from accusations
he molested boys for years on Penn State property, in his home and elsewhere.

Sandusky, 67, was first arrested last month and has said
repeatedly that he is innocent. The latest charges were brought after new
accusers were questioned by a grand jury, which issued another report detailing
chilling new allegations of abuse.
Sandusky lawyer Joseph Amendola said after the arraignment
Wednesday that he had not yet read the latest grand jury report, but said he
has no reason to doubt Sandusky's claims of innocence.
Sandusky was unable to immediately post a $250,000 bail and
was taken to jail.
As he left his arraignment Wednesday in Bellefonte, Sandusky
did not say anything or make eye contact with about two dozen reporters and
photographers. Agents from the state attorney general's office then drove him
to the Centre County Jail after he was unable to post bail.
The new conditions ordered by Senior Magisterial District
Judge Robert E. Scott are a stark contrast to the $100,000 unsecured bail
Sandusky was granted last month by a local judge.
Also Wednesday, The Second Mile said in a statement that it
has lost significant financial support and that some employees will be laid off
over the next several months. It didn't say how many staffers would be cut.
Happy freakin’ holidays…
