In the end I don't think the B1G nor the NCAA will have a say, the AG will.

With all the new evidence surfacing about the emails from administration stating they were aware of the situation, should the NCAA even be involved, or does The NCAA need to make a statement?


Idk. It's sickening what happened but I think this is out of the NCAA's reach. Don't think there are any NCAA laws that cover that bullshite. PSU is about to pay out multi-millions over what 3-4 ppl knew happened / was happening, and some will probably do jail time over it so that seems about right.

Take a look at standard 6 in the Middle States Commission's handbook (the agency that accredits Penn State):


Dude, that does not apply to the actions of a bad actor, like this. Suggesting that any part of Penn State's accreditation is in jeopardy is really silly.

Oh I bet you are the most progressive when it comes to southern race relations. Its horrible when Alabama does it, but I guess Auburn has never done anything like that huh? I guess Auburn wanted all the African-Americans in the state to attend go ole AU but they just didn't want to come huh? Get off your high horse. Every, and I mean every institution of higher learning has had and will continue to have racial issues. All of the majority white schools and HBCUs have had them. It is just how things are, but we have to all strive to make ourselves better people. No one can point the finger.


I guess ole George did not give a damn about Auburn.

So the auburn students who were in black face at their frat party in 2001 were trying to get the Negros to pledge?
And nothing was done to the football team?
Careful how you throw those stones there Skippy.

I agree with you. Where does the line get drawn. Since the whole administration was involved how would you handle that though?

This whole thing will be written about in law books for decades. No one will win on this case.(except the lawyers).

If they want to shut down the school, just quit reporting this story. It's the only thing keeping Penn St. relevant anyway.

i think the ncaa will sit back and let the authorities do the legwork/investigating/prosecuting then swoop in when it's over and lay down some sanctions based on those findings. if there is anything left to sanction.

Judging by the AG's reaction...may not be much, most likely.

"Dude"...you're clueless about school accreditation aren't you? Hint..."dude" was my first clue. What are you, like, twenty years old? You must be, because you obviously don't remember when Auburn got put on SACS (do you know what that stands for?) probation when a couple of trustees landed at the Louisville airport in the dead of night to interview Bobby Petrino.

Actions of a bad actor? Get a clue, pal. Your "bad actor" was the president of the university and engaged in far more heinous actions than Bobby Lowder and his lackeys ever dreamed of.

And the AD, and the HC, and the asst coaches. Ill bet the entire coaching staff knew about it. If this isn't a case of a lack of institutional control- what is?

NCAA should not get involved with anything about a University unless there is a "competitive advantage" in athletics with the violation. Otherwise this is a State of Pennsylvania issue. Should the NCAA have kicked bama out of the association for the G. Wallace's "stand in the schoolhouse door" incident ?




Different matter. In the above you are talking about the Governor of the state and in no way was the athletic dept involved.

I know bammers have a hard time understanding that "just acts of racism" are crimes against society as any other acts

And where did you get this revelation, dimwit?

Yes it was an act of racism supported by the majority of the citizens of our state at the time. I have spent my adult life trying to teach others that bigotry of any sort is not acceptable. Unfortunately, I am in the minority in this state I love and in which my ancestors helped settle after......we kicked the original inhabitants out.
Sorry for the soapbox.

I am old and have a law degree and a masters degree, but nothing at Penn State will jeopardize their accreditations. That would impact enrollments, endowments, etc. Sorry, I always say dude! The state will be paying settlement dollars...apparently you have not read all my posts, but if you have, you have too much time on your hands anyway.
