[Husker] What about McQuery?

[RJ Wessel]

I am not sure anyone can actually say what they would have done. In the spur of the moment, shock factor and all, I am not sure what I would do. I can say what I would like to have done for a reaction, but knowing how shocking things can be, I cannot. 

As far as the report, there are alot of questions in it. But I don't think it was a report to use as a basis to press charges but a report to show if there is just cause to move forward. I would agree that personal observations should not be in the report but as far as the speculation of activities, those should be there and have stated more research/detective work needs to be done in these areas.

This whole thing still makes me sick.  I know that when this incident came out during the season, my brother and I had a conversation with his son, who was a starting WR for his HS football team, what his coach would have done if his coach had witnessed someone interacting with a kid in the showers that appeared sexual in nature.  His son said that his coach made the comment that he would have pulled the old man off of the boy and the old man would have "slipped" multiple times in the shower, perhaps falling on his head a few dozen times as he tried to get up, and might have ended up drowning after "slipping" that many times.  

Both my brother and I thought the same thing.  Here you have a young grad assistant that was a pretty athletic looking kid, witnessing an old man (Jerry), sexually assaulting an underage kid and you don't go in and physical assist the young boy?  Seems to me, I don't care if it would have cost me my job in that case, JS would have been beaten pretty badly.  Am I advocating assault, in that case, yes.  Used to be we took care of people like that and now people are too worried about how they'd be perceived or someone suing them.

I'm glad that my nephew's coach would have done what myself and my brother would have done if we were in the position of McQuery.
