Nope, we use the Schiano standard. It was alleged so it must be true. I don't dispute he isn't a home run coach, I simply hate how his name was connected to the PSU scandal because someone told Mcqueary that Mcqueary had no direct knowledge of.
First thing I do when these potential coach names get thrown out I don't recognize (the PSU was a long time ago, eh?) is the same thing everyone does - google what I know about them. So, highlight the line below and do a search on it.
Schiano fired Tampa Bay Buccaners
Here's the first article I got.

Greg Schiano loses Tampa Bay Buccaneers with autocratic style
Michael Silver
NFL.com columnist
TAMPA, Fla. -- Greg Schiano arrived with a bang, ticking off Tom Coughlin in just his second game as an NFL coach and unrepentantly puffing out his chest in response.
Barring a shocking and almost inconceivable turnaround during his second season of running the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' ultra-tight pirate ship, he'll likely leave with a whimper, dashing back to college football during or after the conclusion of this miserable campaign.
With an 0-7 record in 2013 and 12 defeats in his past 13 games dating back to last November, Schiano is underperforming in an unforgiving industry, which is reason enough for the Glazer family to fire him. Yet this coaching faceplant transcends losing.
As the Bucs stew in the aftermath of a 31-13 loss to the Carolina Panthers on NFL Network's "Thursday Night Football," it's abundantly clear that Schiano and the NFL are as poor a fit as Yasiel Puig and the NLCS, on so many levels. Most glaringly, the autocratic Schiano operates with an inherent deficit of respect, both for America's preeminent sports league and for the men he's trying to lead.
And yes, you'll notice I used the word men. That's because I've spoken to enough people who've played for Schiano during his two NFL seasons to conclude that he treats his players like children, which is a major reason he has lost his locker room.
"How bad is it there? It's worse than you can imagine," says one NFL player who spent 2012 with the Bucs. "It's like being in Cuba."
Several current Bucs players describe a similarly bleak environment in which the all-powerful, unyielding Schiano spews tone-deaf platitudes while demonstrating the personal charm of "Homeland" character Nicholas Brody.
None of this is a surprise to people in NFL scouting circles, who came to dread their visits to Rutgers when Schiano was coaching there from 2001 to 2011. As I wrote last September, such encounters were, in the words of one NFC personnel executive, "pure misery."...

There's more. Look up "Schiano Man"
So a resounding NO! I did not want Schiano.

On to the Penn State stuff.
Given.
In court hearsay is disallowed.
I'm not a juror in court.
The judge allowed the following testimony,
and did not have it stricken from the record.
McQueary's willingness to stand up and give testimony led to the uncovering of what was going on.
Google that and you get headline after headline after headline of news accounts referencing the recently unsealed court records of McQueary's testimony when asked about what other employees knew.
Like this one.

Former Rutgers coach Greg Schiano was aware of Sandusky allegations, court documents say
...
McQueary -- who testified during Sandusky's trial that he had seen Sandusky in a shower with a boy in 2001 -- said he had discussed what he saw with Bradley, and Bradley, according to McQueary, was "not shocked" and said he "knew of some things" involving Sandusky."...sic..."Here is the direct question-and-answer session between McQueary and Paul Gagne, the lawyer representing Pennsylvania Manufacturers Association Co. over reimbursement for civil settlements paid to 32 people who presented themselves as Sandusky victims, that pertains to Schiano:
Q: "Did he tell you that he had information concerning Gerald Sandusky and children?''
McQueary: "He said he knew of some things.''
Q: "And did he tell you what he knew of?''
McQueary: "Yeah.''
Q: "What did he tell you?''
McQueary: "He said another assistant coach had come to him in the early '90s about a very similar situation to mine, and he said that he had -- someone had come to him as far back as the early '80s about seing Jerry doing something with a boy.''
Q: "Did he identify who the other coaches were that had given him this information?''
McQueary: "The one in the early '90s, yes.''
Q: "And who was that?''
McQueary: "Greg Schiano.''
Q: "Greg Schiano?''
McQueary: "Yes.''
Q: "And did he give you any details about what Coach Schiano had reported to him?''
McQueary: "No, only that he had -- I can't remember if it was one night or one morning, but that Greg had come into his office white as a thost and said he just saw Jerry doing something to a boy in the shower. And that's it. That's all he ever told me.''
Q: "Did he tell you what, if anything, he had done about that.
(Following an objection) McQueary said: "No, he didn't share that with me."...
-------------------------------
At the time it all broke, Schiano refused to comment.
When the records were unsealed, Schiano and Bradley finally said it didn't happen.
Bradley and Schiano would now lose their positions in NCAA CF if they admitted Schiano knew and did nothing. They have everything to lose by that.
I'm NOT a juror sitting in a court of law. I can look at the material before me and make my own decision. In this instance I
choose to believe the man who had the courage to stand up and be counted in a court of law under oath. Not Schiano or Bradley.
