On his Washington D.C.-area radio show Monday, former Penn State All-American linebacker LaVar Arrington attempted to work his way through the scandal that’s erupted at his alma mater. Talking about the heinous crimes his former defensive coordinator, Jerry Sandusky, has been indicted on, Arrington said at one point he was reduced to tears upon hearing the reprehensible allegations levied against Sandusky.
“I always saw [Sandusky] giving back, I always saw him as being a part of the community, I always saw him working with kids and caring about them,” Arrington said.
“So when I heard about this information, when all of these allegations hit … it totally, and when I say totally, it totally took me off-guard. I was moved to tears. I looked at my children.”
On Tuesday’s edition of the Versus show “SportsTalk”, Arrington once again spoke out about the Sandusky arrest and how his image of Joe Paterno has been shattered.
