The scholarship reductions start with this upcoming season. They already had their class in place for 2012-2013 season. The scholarship reduction and limitations are in effect for Penn State through the 2017 season. That's 5 more years of scholarship reductions for them. The program will be in shambles by then.

quote:
Penn State received a four-year bowl ban, significant scholarship reductions through the 2017 season and five years probation. It also must pay a $60 million fine and vacate all victories since 1998, when the first allegations surfaced against former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky. The vacated wins bump former coach Joe Paterno from the top spot on the Division I all-time coaching victories list. The Big Ten also stripped Penn State of its bowl revenue, estimated to be around $13 million, for the next four seasons.

Im glad OSU is beefing up their OOC schedules. You guys have been bragging ever since the internet was created about playing one good OOC team every year. At least now, we can have a OOC team put you out of the running early instead of watching you guys waste spots in title games or other BCS games. We surely know that the B10 and MAC schools werent going to put you out of the running. Meyer will probably be gone by 2017 anyhow.
