The fact that Joe Pa is embracing a man who he KNEW sexually abused kids a year PRIOR to this photo says all that needs to be said about how he was protected.

He might as well been saying "I found out what you did last year, but I got your back Jerry."

They make us out to be animals, but at least we have morals. The stuff these white people do pales in comparison to some of our flaws.

I wish he was alive to see this.

Big 10 hands out additional penalties to Penn State - JSOnline

"Today, we have read the NCAA release on Penn State University. We note in the release, and have independently confirmed, that Penn State has accepted the factual findings in the July 12, 2012 Report of the Special Investigative Counsel prepared by Louis Freeh and his firm (the Freeh Report). Based on the findings, as accepted by Penn State, we fully support the actions taken by the NCAA. Further, following a thorough review of the Freeh Report, the COPC has voted to impose the following additional sanctions on Penn State, effective immediately."

1. Censure: The accepted findings support the conclusion that our colleagues at Penn State, individuals that we have known and with whom we have worked for many years, have egregiously failed on many levels—morally, ethically and potentially criminally. They have failed their great university, their faculty and staff, their students and alumni, their community and state—and they have failed their fellow member institutions in the Big Ten Conference. For these failures, committed at the highest level of the institution, we hereby condemn this conduct and officially censure Penn State.

2. Probation: The Big Ten Conference will be a party to the Athletic Integrity Agreement referenced in the NCAA release, and will work closely with the NCAA and Penn State to ensure complete compliance with its provisions over the 5 year term of the Agreement.

3. Ineligibility: As referenced in the NCAA release, Penn State’s football team will be ineligible for postseason bowl games. It will also be ineligible for Big Ten Conference Championship Games for four years, a period of time that runs concurrently with the NCAA postseason bowl ban imposed this morning.

4. Fine: Because Penn State will be ineligible for bowl games for the next four years, it will therefore be ineligible to receive its share of Big Ten Conference bowl revenues over those same four years. That money, estimated to be approximately $13 million, will be donated to established charitable organizations in Big Ten communities dedicated to the protection of children.

PSU's cult of football was just tossed into the bushes. Happy Valley's culture shifted dramatically.
JoePa's winningEST record has been wiped out.
ONLY $60mm of ill-gotten gains disgorged? That's 1 year's worth of football revenue. 1998 and 2001 were more than 1 year ago.
Bowl bans and scholarships signal young players "DO NOT COME TO THIS SCHOOL." Hackenburg better de-commit like Webb did -- if he has not already. Hackenberg drops verbal commitment to PSU | Eleven Warriors


The board of trustees isn't going to challenge. The other shoe might drop any day now: dead DA, Curley's & Schultz's secrets, child abuse ring, 2nd Mile files, etc. WHAT NEXT?

What's the Big 10 about to announce?

DAMN fukk a DEATH PENALTY THEY JUST DROPPED A NUKE.

This is a win for my school (Maryland). Penn State been leeching our top talent for a decade+ now.

Mane the only thing that sucks is I know some nikkas that play for Penn, I hope them nikkas transeferring. One of them from what I heard one of them actually did wanna transfer during his freshman year but JoePa was on that bullshyt (would only sign off if he went like d3 or some shyt). So I think he goin be gone.

Man if Maryland isnt able to lock up the talent in this area now (Penn State has had a stronghold in this area), then them nikkas dont deserve nothing. I would be on the phone right now tryna bring nikkas in.
Our recruiting has been basura in both football and basketball... despite all the talented athletes in the area :beli:
