Well, if it came down to a battle of credibility between McQueary and Sandusky, maybe McQueary figured he'd lose that one (not knowing, I guess, about the 1998 allegation and thinking if it's just a one-time thing, there's no way I can prove it happened). And if the "authorities" took Sandusky's word over McQueary's, he'd have to leave the job. And then you're a 28-year old guy who wants a future coaching football, and what anyone knows about you is you wrongfully accused another, well-respected football coach of child molestation and yeah...I think you can worry about your future.

Had he immediately done something, of course, Sandusky would have had a hard time explaining what was going on, and if they did an exam on the kid, they'd find the truth even if he wasn't willing to talk. But overall, I can see where McQueary's thought process might have gone. Still doesn't excuse letting this go, though.
