As sick as it is it almost makes sense, this is so horrific an act it would make no difference whether they did the right thing, the program was dead as soon as it got out. So they choose to cover it up

There would certainly be lawsuits, but I don't see how that is a sensical reason.
I don't think a swift response would have seen the program damaged all that much. It would have been a blow, but really I don't see people holding the program responsible for the actions of a retired coach that nobody had any reason to suspect. Were the Swift Current Broncos held responsible for the actions of Graham James? I don't think the public expects an institution to prevent something they don't have any reason to suspect, but they do expect an institution to respond swiftly and strongly when they find out.
