    i just dont see the point, if you think someone knew about the rapings then fire them, if they didnt know anything then leave them there and the program alone....why not just punish the people directly involved?

    The university and the football program. It was a complete institutional failure and these penalties are designed to change the culture and the mindset of a school that was dominated by football and its supposedly legendary program and coach.

    i still dont really get it... i mean do a full on investigation and remove anyone you think knew something... imo either nuke the program or just let them play... also vacating wins is the gayest thing of all time (unless the wins were due to a violation the impacted the actual game like point shaving).. one sicko raping boys doesnt negate a decade worths of players performances

    there was already a full on investigation...the NCAA has no where the resources to do it as fast as it was conducted as well....The reason the school is being punished is because they were not set up to handle this situation correctly...Every one failed....not only the people who knew about it...but also the system...it was set up to condone hush hush behavior and these sanctions are designed to teach the school a lesson in the way they run there institution

    rape in general is a hush hush situation, you realize only like 15 percent of rapes estimated are reported...now that is gonna come out wrong because i obviously dont condone anyone who knew anything about this.. but if your gonna do this much bullshit then just nuke the program or fire every one and start from scratch..at least theyre allowing the students to transfer but i have never understood punishing the people that come after stuff that has happened before
  • Rex_Capone420Rex_Capone420 Posts: 69,663 spicy boy
    Just right
    there not punishing the people that came after tho....some of those people ill be it maybe they didn't know....but some of them are still there...for ex. Ohio state...maybe Jim tressel isn't there still but the administration that allowed him to break rules under there nose is

    then like i said do an investigation and fire them... or just let go of everyone who was at a certain level up or higher... i just dont like punishing innocent people for things
  • Rex_Capone420Rex_Capone420 Posts: 69,663 spicy boy
    Just right
    generally NCAA investigations take years....if a school is under investigation while your being recruited thats up to you to take the risk...in USC's case it took 4 years...any one who committed there knew what risk they were taking

    Andy Katz: "Here's a difference between the two, people in Pennsylvania grow up wanting to play for Penn State, nobody anywhere grows up wanting to play for SMU"

    this is true, every high school football player i knew wanted to go to penn state
  • Rex_Capone420Rex_Capone420 Posts: 69,663 spicy boy
    Just right

  • Rex_Capone420Rex_Capone420 Posts: 69,663 spicy boy

    Paterno was considered a living legend in the PA high school football programs. The greatest honor you could get is being allowed to play under him.
