Mike McQueary Will Not Coach Against Nebraska Because of ‘Multiple Threats,’ Penn State Announces

Penn State assistant coach Mike McQueary will not be a part of the Penn State coaching staff on Saturday when the Nittany Lions take on Nebraska. That decision, however, has more to do with his safety than anything else.

The university announced Thursday night that because of “multiple threats,” McQueary will not be on the sideline or in the press box when Penn State plays on Saturday.

“Due to multiple threats made against assistant coach Mike McQueary, the University has decided it would be in the best interest of all for Assistant Coach Mike McQueary to not be in attendance at Saturday’s Nebraska game,” the statement read in full.
