Penn State NCAA Sanctions thread - announcement at 8 CST
Posted on 7/22/12 at 8:16 am

quote:
The NCAA will announce "corrective and punitive measures" for Penn State on Monday morning, it said in a statement Sunday. Emmert will reveal the sanctions at 9 a.m. ET in Indianapolis
quote:
Penn State will not receive the so-called "death penalty" that would have suspended the program for at least one year
quote:
The penalties, however, are considered to be so harsh that the death penalty may have been preferable
quote:LINK
The NCAA is taking unprecedented measures with the decision to penalize Penn State without the due process of a Committee on Infractions hearing.
quote:
"Unprecedented" penalties against both the Penn State University football team and the school.
quote:
"I've never seen anything like it"
quote:LINK
The fine will be at least $30 million, and perhaps as much as $60 million, for the university's involvement in the Jerry Sandusky scandal.
quote:
The move will mark a first in NCAA history, in which the president will invoke a defense of the NCAA's constitution as part of his reasoning for taking the unprecedented steps
quote:
Emmert is expected to detail that the action is backed by a special provision allowing such a step if he receives approval from the NCAA's board of directors.
quote:
The NCAA is prepared to defend the lack of an investigation by focusing on the Freeh Report, and Emmert's determination that the report provided actionable evidence.
quote:
Article 2.4 of the NCAA's constitution, excerpt: "for intercollegiate athletics to promote the character development of participants, to enhance the integrity of higher education and to promote civility in society, student-athletes, coaches, and all others associated with these athletics programs and events should adhere to such fundamental values as respect, fairness, civility, honesty and responsibility. These values should not only be manifest in athletics participation, but also in the broad spectrum of activities affecting the athletics program."
quote:
Penn State has been apprised of the process and is likely onboard with having the NCAA handle the case in this manner.
quote:LINK
Penn State will have limited options for an appeal.

Speculation:
Burn every building down with Sandusky and the BOTs locked inside. Throw Jay Paterno's delusional prick arse strapped to Joe's statue in there as fire kindling.

Regardless of whether or not they should do it, isn't it too early for sanctions? 
This will be very interesting to see.

Unprecedented?
That's even bigger than precedented. And the death penalty is precedented.

I agree that this is a NCAA issue. You had the "most powerful" people at a university ignore common sense because they were taking orders from a football coach. The football coach was so selfish in his concern for his own football program's image that he protected and harbored a child predator. The current state of denial from the fans of the Penn St football team show the need for the death penalty.

What a bunch of buffoons...this NCAA. So these clowns announcing Monday.
I guess they don't have to do any investigation, the Freeh report is now Gospel. Sometimes this country sucks when it comes to due process and emotion.
We still like public lynchings.

I personally don't agree with the NCAA penalizing the Penn State football program.
If Jerry Sandusky never existed, we would never be having this conversation. Jerry Sandusky is the ONE that put everyone else in this terrible situation. Jerry Sandusky is the bad guy.
I'm by no means defending the "cover up." It was bad as well, but there would never have even been a coverup if Jerry Sandusky had not done what he did.
Personally, I think everyone involved in the coverup should lose their job and possibly face jail time depending upon what the courts decide, but I do not agree with penalizing the Penn State football program. Jerry Sandusky is the one that should face the wrath of everyone, not everyone associated with Penn State football.

This is why the NCAA is a joke. Miami violated so many actual NCAA rules with drugs, money, hookers, etc. no punishment yet after a year. PSU may have broke a few NCAA rules outside of what the legal system has taken care of. All their knowledge is based on a report the BoT had paid to be done. A BoT that need to escape from the heat as well.

Whether you agree the NCAA should penalize or not they should absolutely wait until after the legal proceedings......NCAA gonna NCAA I reckon.
Posted on 7/22/12 at 10:29 am to genro
No way I say. Too soon. The NCAA would have to do their own lengthy investigation. But if they are handed down, it will be interesting to see just how these "harsh" penalties stack up against others.
