Following in the footsteps of Greg Schiano, former Penn State defensive coordinator and current UCLA assistant Tom Bradley denied witnessing Jerry Sandusky sexually abuse any children while in State College.

“At no time did Tom Bradley ever witness any inappropriate behavior," Bradley's attorney, Brett Senior, wrote in an email. "Nor did he have any knowledge of alleged incidents in the 80’s and 90’s. He has consistently testified as such. Any assertions to the contrary are false. When he became aware of the 2001 incident it had already been reported to the University administration years earlier.”

Bradley's name appeared in former Penn State assistant coach Mike McQueary's testimony from unsealed court documents Tuesday that he and Schiano both saw former Penn State defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky sexually assault a boy. Schiano said earlier Tuesday he also "never saw any abuse" while at Penn State.

Bradley is set to enter his second as the defensive coordinator at UCLA in 2016. He worked at Penn State first as a graduate assistant in 1979 and then in various roles from 1980-2011. He even served as interim head coach upon Paterno's resignation.
