MARCH 2: McQueary tells Paterno

MARCH 3: Paterno tells Curley

MARCH 13 or thereabouts: Curley and Schultz meet with McQueary.

Paterno told Curley the next day after hearing it, on a Sunday, no less.

The reason that the Curley-Schultz-McQueary meeting doesn't happen until "about ten days later" is simple: the week of March 4 - March 8, 2002, Penn State was on Spring break, with the University closed and perhaps Schultz not in town. They meet, perhaps, on March 11, 12, or 13, the week that the school opens again after Spring break.

So, to timeline it: Sandusky brings the boy to Lasch on a Friday night before Spring Break. Why? because there's nobody anywhere near campus - the whole place shuts down (not really, but pretty close). McQueary calls and visits Paterno on the Saturday, and Paterno summons Curley to his house on the Sunday.
