The private businesses that surround the campus who depend on football to keep their business going. If the sanctions are as severe as rumored, it might have been better for PSU to have gotten the death penalty. The sanctions will kill the economy of the area and a lot of people will end up losing their jobs.
I am trying to imagine what businesses surrounding lsu depend solely on football(which only accounts for 3 months a year) to survive. We are talking about 14 days a year that those businesses would see an influx( fri and sat of hone games).
I use lsu bc I have never been to psu campus.

You really are quite daft for your age. I may be young but I do have common sense. No one is saying they should get away with it. The job of prosecuting and punishing the men who facilitated this is for the police, not the NCAA
No my good man, you have proven to have endless stupidity in this matter.
Im going to type slow so that you can read clearly. PSU is a member institution of the NCAA. The NCAA sets a codes of ethical and moral standing that all member institutions must follow. PSU broke several of those codes by trying to cover up a sex scandal. Therefore, PSU made infractions that constitutes NCAA violations and stand for punishment by the NCAA. Is that clear enough for you stupid?

If PSU wants to cover up child rape, so be it. No one should have a moral code to live by. Plus, Sandusky was just expressing himself in a manner that was ok in the old Roman society. Rape on PSU, rape on.
Differentiate, moron. Show me someone has defended sandusky or any actions.

I have been to Penn State and know people who lived around there. Football is all that town has going for it. Before PSU became a football power, that town was nothing. It thrives on athletics and would probably die without them.

What NCAA rule did Penn State violate?

I'm missing something here. First actual reports were 97 weren't they? First accusations in the mid/late 70s? So we're talking til 2025 or so? Stop sensationalising.
Oh I'm sorry, roughly 40 years then. Better now?

There's really no definitive proof outside of the last 20...and that's being generous. If you like to legislate based on speculation and accusation then have at it.

Children got raped. Football was so important to the people in the program that they let children get raped to protect it.

WTF does the NCAA owe to business owners in Pennsylvania? That's really silly to think the NCAA should factor these people into their decision regarding a member institution.

Which ones did they break? Can you point out the specific violations that were committed by the athletic program?

No, they really don't. An NCAA expert even weighed in on this and said that they are really reaching into unconstitutional territory here.
Where was this? Unconstitutional, or unprecedented? HUGE DIFFERENCE.
Fortunately, there is no precedent for what went on at PSU. That said, the NCAA MEMBER INSTITUTIONS must be held to a HIGHER STANDARD - Institutions in this case also include the governance, which it seems in the eyes of the NCAA was non-existent. Therefore, penalties and sanctions must be levied.

Not a one of us is defending Penn State. My concern is for the people who aren't even associated with the university who will suffer when those sanctions are handed down tomorrow.
That happens with every major infraction/penalty case. This case is no different if Penn State committed violations during the course of this situation.

So you're insinuating that these business people wouldn't have said anything either had they known about Sandusky? You people are crazed and beyond reason.
That's it. Got me there.
I'm saying I have a hard time saying Penn State shouldn't be punished because a local businessman might suffer. It's a risk that was taken. They benefited from Penn State maintaining a positive image with the cover up. That balances things out for me.
