They didn't completely F over the program. Penn State could be good again in 10 years. Pretty decent punishment.

Penn State docked 20 scholarships per year. Can't believe Emmert couldn't see the folly of this penalty.

Got if from DeCourcy. Since corrected the OP.

This seems like an appropriate course of action give the goal of what they are trying to do. I really hope it gives some comfort to the victims families. I say those penalties are pretty damn harsh.

Looks like the Big 10 may step in with additional penalties as well.

It's when the Freeh report states that Penn State brass knew about it.

I think when his actions were first reported. If I remember correctly.

Pretty sure that is when it got reported to PSU authorities and nothing was done about it. They aren't being punished for what Sandusky did. They are being punished because it was brought to their attention and nothing was done about it.
