Yeah I'm not skeptical of "Bo knew". The evidence is very compelling.

True, but I don't really need to KNOW to believe. If one of Bo's other kids even weakly corroborates that crazy story I would believe it. Like if one of Bo's other kids was like, "Yep I can totally see my dad doing that cuz he was a ****ing *******" then I would believe it. But if Bo's other kids are saying something along the lines of "that's the not the Bo I knew" then I will remain very skeptical of the "punched me in the chest, flew across the room cuz I told my dad I was molested" story.

The rest makes sense to me. I don't think Bo was a very bright guy. He's just a football guy, most likely extremely ignorant outside of that realm. Bo legit probably didn't think it was a big deal (and he was wrong ofc). Sandusky raping kids in showers makes sense cuz we know he's sick and deranged.
