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.

So if the priest in my parish molested a kid 30 years ago, they need to burn down my church?


If your church and the heads of your church knew about it, and not only did they do nothing about it, but they made a conscious effort to cover it up and in the process allowing countless other children to be molested?

The NCAA is a joke. Emmert is a pompous arse, and should leave any punitive measures to the legal system. WTF do the people currently at Penn State as opposed to the real "guilty parties" need to suffer any sort of indignity for? It's tantamount to punishing children for the sins of the father. Stupid. The sooner the NCAA dies in a fire, the better.


I continue to die laughing at the Butthurt out of Southern Cal. Bush was paid. Mayo was paid. That the NCAA found out and handed out sanctions is proper. Charles Robinson gave the NCAA the roadmap. What is the problem?

What is unprecedented is the process through which PSU punishment handed out, not necessarily the penalties


This is very important to note when we read unprecedented and think about negatives. It may not necessarily be unprecedented severe penalties.

The report shows numerous University officials knew what was going on and yet they continued to let that sick frick have a key.

If this was Tennessee that did this I would want the same thing.

They covered up CHILD MOLESTATION.

Like Duke and Krzyzewski? UNC and Williams? Patriots and Belichick? Bowden and FSU? Bear and Alabama? You posted that drivel in a thread about a coach and others covering up child molestation. So I take it you think all of the above would cover up child molestation?

Who gave Reggie Bush improper benefits during his time at USC?
A sports marketing agent who hoped to gain Reggie Bush as a client.

quote:


According to your argument, that man should be the one to be punished and not the school
That would have been great. Except that he was not subject to NCAA regulations. Reggie Bush has basically been disassociated with USC though, so that is a fitting punishment.

quote:

....not the players at the school who had nothing to do with it or the football team

Nope. Mike Garrett was the AD who basically thumbed his nose at the NCAA. He paid for it with his job. In no way, shape or form should the current players/coaches/fans at USC be made to suffer for it.

What does it say about the members who continue to contribute knowing the church leaders still have not come clean on many pedophile cases and in fact facilitated the removal of Cardinal Law from the jurisdiction of investigators of 1500 pedophile cases and today continue to diplomatically shelter him??

Who has handle their crisis better as an institution--the Church or Penn State?

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

You're still not getting it. There's nothing similar between Duke University...emphasis on University...and Alabama football greater community.

No death penalty, but revoke of all wins and championships since Sandusky was at penn state, percentage of all profits to go to child abuse charities, post season ban for 5 years, and loss of 3-5 scholarships a year for 5 years.

I'm not naive at all. It's just logic. You want to punish people who did no wrong just because bad people at the school did wrong.

It's stupid.
