I know we disagree on the reach of the NCAA but I must commend you on a few things:
Having a civil conversation while discussing an explosive topic
Sticking to your ideals and convictions of what the NCAA is
Having solid and responsible answers and questions.
Thank you for that.
After trying to take a look through the NCAA handbook (and deciding how boring looking through it would be) I could very well be wrong in my assumption that "lack of instutional control" would include a athletic department and administration looking the other way and allowing a possible pedophile to continue using facilities which had been possible scenes of felonies. After all the nitpicking that the NCAA does and tends ot hand out infractions, the thought that this wouldn't be cut and dry "lack of institutional control" didn't even cross my mind. Any which way, good discussion.

Still be a stretch.
However, I remember from when this was an ongoing story that the NCAA bylaws include an open-ended provision allowing a member institution to be expelled by a supermajority vote. While the NCAA certainly didn't anticipate Sandusky, Penn State would have had a very difficult time going to court and arguing that being voted off the island was an excessive punishment, and it would have been clearly within the bounds of the membership agreement.
