Okay guys I have been working a lot lately and this news doesn't really appeal to me as I don't like college football all too much but what warranted such harsh punishment? From what I know as a passive follower, I know JoePa was a very likeable if not the most likeable coach in college sports until this scandal. What exactly did he do (or not do) to warrant such immense hate? Two, why is this off the field matter which doesn't even involve the players have to affect the whole university both players, students and people who work in the athletic department? I don't mean to be insensitive toward the victims and their families but this is simply ridicilous considering they are dismantling, from what I've gathered, one of the most historic and beloved football program in the country, because of a man (Sandusky) who wasn't directly involved in playing between the lines. I just feel bad for the students and players both past and present whose lives have been affected by those men's terrible mistake.
