They should get ZERO exposure, if they are gonna get punished. PUNISH THEM. As far as other teams losing a tv game, Oh well. If the kids that are there don't like it. Transfer.

I don't think it's as bad as the death penalty, but it's not far off. The program will suffer for a long time from this. I think the punishment is sufficient.

the only action that should of happen is for Emmert to start the press conference holding a gas can and a box of matches.

I would agree with you if the Big 10 kicked them out of the conference.

as some one mentioned, do not discount the civil suits. the "net worth" of PSU will be before the jury in those cases to be considered when awarding punitive damages. that coupled with the facts and now the Freeh report, I think the potential damage awards could set records. PSU would be wise to settle quickly and quietly. You figure at least what 12 victims/plaintiffs. Hell the potential verdicts would likely exceed 100 million easy.

In a way this is worse than the death penalty

They will be forced to play varsity football in the Big Ten with an intramural team. They are going to be humiliated on the field like they have been humiliated off the field (deservedly so).

Why did Bill Obrien take this job?

Thanks I had not heard any forecasts but I would agree. The purpose of punitive damages, like the term suggests, is to punish the defendant and its worth is allowed to be considered in that determination. They could appeal the verdicts but they would have to post a bond in the interim most likely.

Exactly, this is just a road bump for the program.


It's a little more than that. I feel pretty confident that they don't see another bowl game this decade.

Apples to oranges. 4 year bowl ban is huge. USC barely has to recruit to get great talent. What kid will want to go to PSU now?


Good point.


There's so much talent in the LA area that one of USC or UCLA tends to be very good at any one time.


Penn State is in the middle of nowhere, Pennsylvania isn't the power it used to be in producing football players, there is no identity to the program anymore, and they're about to get mudstomped by the Big Ten bottom feeders like Indiana and Minnesota for the next decade.

The school is also far more likely to lose players to transfers than USC was, IMHO, which will make their descent into mediocrity that much quicker.
