According to reports, Ohio State defensive coordinator Greg Schiano and the University of Tennessee had reached a deal on Sunday for Schiano to take over as the new head coach of the Volunteers football team. But when word spread that Schiano was offered the job, a disputed claim about the coach from a deposition statement released in 2016 sparked outrage from fans and pushback from state political leaders. Amid the backlash, Tennessee withdrew its offer to Schiano.
In a case that shook college football to its core, former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky was accused in 2011 of serial rape of young boys he approached through his children’s charity, The Second Mile, a series of crimes that took place over 15 years. In 2012, Sandusky was convicted of 45 counts of child sexual abuse. The shocking case ended the over four decades-long coaching career of Joe Paterno, who died shortly after being fired, and left many asking who knew what when.
