teachercd Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 For some reason I just can't shake the feeling that this punishment will kind of make people go "Ehh", I think it will be less than people think. Also, I feel that PSU rushed to get this done and gave the NCAA this "punishment power" to STOP the NCAA from digging more, taking its time, doing a year long investigation and finding out wayyyyyy more. Just a hunch on both things. Of course,my hunches are usually totally wrong. Quote Link to comment

Creed Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I love conspiracy theories and the fact this happened so quickly and with legal matters involving the the main PSU administration are still pending do you think the powers at the NCAA have something against PSU? Did PSU piss them off at some point? Are they out to get the B1G? I know Emmert was at Auburn. The B1G is the SEC's biggest competiton dollars wise. Is there a greater conspiracy involving the SEC? How could a conference that invented and perfected cheating have no issues in the last 5 years? Cam Newton swept under the rug, SCar gets slap on wrist and goes away quietly, Tenn same. The SEC's biggest competitors have been slammed recently - USC, B1G (OSU, PSU). Quote Link to comment

teachercd Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Okay, maybe I was wrong, the punishment is pretty hard. Once again, my hunch is wrong 60 million dollar fine no bowl games for 4 years 25 scholarships down to 15 for four years Quote Link to comment

Omaha-Husker Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Pretty stiff punishments. Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Can someone help me out with the scholarship loss? Are they only allowed to take 15 scholarship players each year for the next 4 years, instead of up to 25? Quote Link to comment
Blackshirts007 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I do agree with Emmert about not canceling upcoming seasons because most people have nothing to do with it. Quote Link to comment

knapplc Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Well. That makes for one extra win on the schedule each year for the next several years. I didn't believe they'd allow all current players and signed recruits the ability to leave without penalty and play immediately. Let the feeding frenzy begin. Quote Link to comment
