Read More: Penn St. Nittany Lions

Penn St. Nittany Lions assistant coach Mike McQueary isn't with the team right now and is away on a recruiting trip, reports ESPN's Chris Fowler. McQueary is best known as of late as the former graduate assistant who observed defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky raping a 10-year-old and then went to tell coach Joe Paterno.

McQueary played at Penn State, and has been a position coach since 2000.

His role in the story has been in question, most powerfully by the mother of an alleged victim:

"I don't even have words to talk about the betrayal that I feel," said the mom of Victim Six. "[McQueary] was a grown man, and he saw a boy being sodomized ... He ran and called his daddy?"

Hard to imagine just how well that recruiting he's supposedly doing is going.
