Are you suggesting that the University didn't do anything wrong? Were those individuals not acting on behalf of the University? Were they not representing the University in their roles?

The University did not make conscious decisions to do wrong. Nor did the football program. Individuals, people, made those decisions and should be punished. The people need to be punished. The institution does not.

The individuals and people that you are talking about represented the University in the largest capacity possible.



You can't be this naive.

yeah, the Nazi party wasn't so bad, it was the leaders that ran it. Once Hitler, Himmler, and Goering were removed, it could've worked out.

The depth of the people involved will probably never be known. Fact is the leaders of the Athletic Department chose to try to keep this quiet to protect the Football program.

BULL FUCCING $HIT - Joe Paterno WAS Penn State Football. Penn State Foetball was the "University" Need Legal precedent? Look and see how Corporations are held accountable for their Directors' actions. In the eyes of the court, they are often considered one and the same.

JoePa systematically covered-up everything going wrong inside his program. Hell - He even petitioned the Dean of Students that HE be the disciplinary authority when it came to football. NEED A LINK?

The Smoking Gun Everyone Ignored

It was corruption from the TOP DOWN. END OF STORY. The fact is you are butthurt cause your program got caught. Well, your program should not have cheated and payed players in the manner they did. If ever a program was running out of control it was USC. The fact they were not given the death penalty was because the NCAA did not have subpoena authority to question under oath the boosters, agents, and others. Honestly, USC got off easy. Deal with it.
