Penn State Scandal Thread

apparently, psu faced a 4 year death penalty. how would the B1G have reacted?

Have we really not talked this to death enough that we have to talk about hypotheticals that didn't happen and won't happen?

 

I think that aspect is for everyone saying that Penn State consented to the punishment; in the way that the Band Leader consented to signing Luca Brazi's contract to release Johnny Fontaine.

- $60 million sanction

- a four-year football postseason ban

- vacation of all wins dating to 1998

 

Probably the last statement will be adjusted (wins) or removed entirely. My guess secret pact just like OU. OU initially slapped NCAA penalties by vacating one year wins under QB Bomar, Adrian and OL scandal era ($$ money with no work). Enter Bobby Stoopies appeal........within one year, NCAA was reversed judgement, of course silent move and back page newspaper news.

BELLEFONTE, Pa. -- The wife of convicted child molester Jerry Sandusky says she still loves him and "he's not who they say he is."

I truly feel sorry for Dottie Sandusky. Imagine how much this turned her world upside down. And she's still in complete denial.

Jerry Sandusky is indicted on multiple accounts of child molestation. University VP and Athletic Director are indicted on counts of perjury before the grand jury.

 

University President Spanier gives a statement saying that the legal process must be observed and pending the outcome of that both Curley and Schultz will be on administrative leave.

 

Spanier and head football coach Joe Paterno meet with the full board of trustees to go over everything relevant to all the criminal indictments. Secure in the knowledge that this is not a Penn State scandal, not a Penn State football scandal and certainly not a Joe Paterno scandal, Coach Paterno is authorized to hold a press conference to quiet the growing media storm.

 

Addressing the national press corps. Coach Paterno lays out the FACTS of the situation and outlines how all steps were taken within the football program to address any allegations concerning Mr. Sandusky.

 

The Penn State Board of Trustees announce that they will conduct an open and transparent investigation into any areas where the Sandusky situation may have effected Penn State. These investigations will carry out through any and all criminal trials associated with the case.

Ranked #3 in the preseason polls, Penn State takes the field against Ohio U. at Beaver Stadium. At halftime, a frail but feisty Joe Paterno--who is reported to have undergone his chemotherapy with amazing resilience for a man his age--walks out to midfield without assistance to receive the thunderous ovation of one hundred eight thousand grateful Penn State students, alumni and fans. There is not a dry eye in the stadium as he walks off the field.
