Note:Because there is a strong case for all of these people to be the MOST HATED, these names will be placed in no particular order!
1. Louis Freeh. The former FBI Investigator (who was fired because of a cover-up scandal) that privately investigated a potential cover-up by Penn State officials after the Jerry Sandusky scandal. The Freeh report has since been seen as not having enough strong evidence to support the vulgar claims it made against an entire university, but Penn Staters have known that for awhile now.
2. Mark Emmert. The NCAA tyrant that has a personal beef against Penn State and Joe Paterno. The NCAA has always butt heads with Paterno due to his stance against marketing players, and his unwillingness to back down against them. Even after the late great JoePa had passed, Emmert still spoke of him as a criminal and handed down an unprecedented punishment on Penn State with only the controversial Freeh Report as his support.
3. Terrelle Pryor. The one-time Penn State commit backed out at the last second to go to our hated rivals, Ohio State. Even though he was a home-grown PA boy whose father attended PSU, he still wanted a brighter spotlight. Later on, Terrelle went on to infamously cry on the sideline after losing to the Nittany Lions in Ohio. He then took improper benefits, got his head coach fired, and then went to the Oakland Raiders only to lose his starting job to Matt McGloin. (Karma).
4. Jerry Sandusky. This sick son-of-a-bitch committed unspeakable sexual crimes against numerous young boys that he had contact with through a charity he created. The former defensive coordinator led Penn State into its darkest time, but now thankfully is rotting behind bars.
5. Rob Bolden. This diva was a former QB for the Nittany Lions who thought everything should just be handed to him. To show his disapproval of having to compete with Matt McGloin for the starting job, Rob transferred to LSU where he never played a single snap.
6. Urban Meyer. The head coach of the Ohio State Buckeyes Football team. That’s enough of a reason for everyone to have a sour opinion on him.
7. Silas Redd. Former PSU star running back drew comparisons to LeSean McCoy, and was expected to be the best Penn State RB since Larry Johnson. Silas betrayed a school and a team that loved him and gave him a great opportunity to succeed to go to USC after the Sandusky scandal. The most famous thing Silas did at USC: he was stopped on the one yard line by Manti Te’o and USC lost the football game to rivals Notre Dame.
8. Mike McQueary. This former quarterback and assistant football coach for the Nittany Lions was once considered a favorite to replace Joe Paterno as head coach when he would retire. The public later learned that he witnessed Sandusky sexually assault a boy in the showers and neglected to stop it or even report it to the police. He then later sued PSU for $4 million due to his inability to find another job.
9. Anyone From Michigan. It’s 5:30 and Michigan STILL Sucks!!
