But it isn't about Penn State it's about next time.
Ever heard a player/coach say they feel bad for letting down an entire province, country, fanbase etc?
You don't think people in these positions aren't acutely aware of their image and legacy? Especially at universities where they have a real "brothers in arms" type outlook.
You embarrass yourself and it's bad. You shame the entire organization and it's worse.
