"significant penalties that could severely damage the football program's ability to compete" when the NCAA announces sanctions against the football program at a 9 a.m. news conference Monday.


To put the fine in perspective, Penn State's athletic department had $116 million in revenue for the 2010-11 school year, the most recent data available according to figures from the U.S. Department of Education's Equity in Athletics

More like solitary than DP which may he worse. If that's true, this will really hurt the B1G. I think this is a bad idea.

Stick a fork in Penn State if that's true. We likely won't be hearing from them ever again. Doubt it's true though.

[CedarPhin]

No idea if it's true or not, but those are pretty harsh. D1-AA?

If thats true then its devastating. As much as ive been "raze Carthage" about this situation, even i think thats to much.

That is a fraud report.

Yeah I sincerely doubt PSU's program will be shut down for an entire season. That takes away the 12th team that allows that conference to have a championship game. Vacate wins, ban them from the postseason, strip scholarships, allow the current players to transfer without having to sit out, whatever. Don't punish the whole conference. That's dumb.

[tylerdolphin]

Yea no way thats real. PSU might as well just pack it in for good if that report is anywhere close to true.
