The NCAA said in a statement on Sunday that it will announce "corrective and punitive measures" for Penn State at 9 a.m. on Monday. While multiple reports indicate that the school will no receive the so-called "death penalty" that would have would suspended the football program, the sanctions are expected to be harsh.
Harsh? I know my opinion may lose me business in the state of Pa and with Nittany Lions fans. However their offense, ( Sandusky, Paterno, Spanier and Curly) is so egregious anything short of the death penalty is an affront to the Penn State victims.
The entire leadership of Penn State closed their eyes to a child molester who used their football program as bait for child rape. The rapes took place in their facilities and they allowed it.
By far this is more offensive than MSU paying players to play. This is the poster child for an institution out of control with greed for money, prestige and power. They feared for themselves instead of taking the right course of action protecting the helpless against a predator. They made all the school and their football program stand for a lie.
They made a terrible choice, instead of doing the right thing, taking a small hit and in the end walking their talk and becoming heroes, they took the cowards way out, enabling a child molesting rapist to use their assets to continue his evil ways.
In my mind that does deserve the death penalty, once again the NCAA has wimped out bowing to the pressures of powerful schools and looking at the money. Shame on the NCAA
