Penn St Removes Paterno Statue/NCAA about to Drop the Hammer

[K-Apps]

Paterno Family Statement

"Tearing down the statue of Joe Paterno does not serve the victims of Jerry Sandusky's horrible crimes or help heal the Penn State Community. We believe the only way to help the victims is to uncover the full truth. The Freeh report, though it has been accepted by the media as the definitive conclusion on the Sandusky scandal, is the equivalent of an indictment — a charging document written by a prosecutor — and an incomplete and unofficial one at that.

"To those who truly want to know the truth about Sandusky, it should matter that Joe Paterno has never had a hearing; that his legal counsel has never been able to interview key witnesses, all of whom are represented by lawyers and therefore unavailable; that there has never been an opportunity to review critical evidence which has not been made public; that selective evidence and the opinion of Mr Freeh is treated as the equivalent of a fair trial. Despite this obviously flawed and one-sided presentation, the University believes it must acquiesce and accept that Joe Paterno has been given a fair and complete hearing. We think the better course would have been for the University to take a strong stand in support of due process so that the complete truth can be uncovered.

"It is not the University's responsibility to defend or protect Joe Paterno. But they at least should have acknowledged that important legal cases are still pending and that the record on Joe Paterno, the Board and other key players is far from complete."

As a PSU student, even I had to give this statement a

Everyone should check out this board to see how delusional penn staters really are:

Scout.com: Audibles Message Board

These cats talking bout withdrawing from the NCAA.

I'd love to see their football schedule if that ever happen. Playing community colleges in a 110,000 seat stadium.

Check the psu boards... The fanbase still won't take responsibility... Their sick culture still exists

A college coach just told me he's already sized up Penn State's roster IF/WHEN players can transfer & play right away. #feedingfrenzy

What I'm hearing is a three year bowl ban, loss of scholarships and the money from the home games go towards charities that help victims of sex abuse.

Sounds like what they did to USC, minus the charity part.

Yeah it does. I think Penn State worked out some kind of deal with the NCAA. That statue was a part of it.

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

If thats the case the only reason they dont throw down death penalty is to keep the regular season games in tact. The team that comes out of the leaders division should have an asterix for the next 4 years

And that shyt really didn't hurt USC, they still are a top 10 team. So this punishment is weak IMO if true.

...yeah it actually did...that 3 year usc window cost them their title winning coach, outside of barkley, top tier skill players until this year, and allowed stanford to get legit and oregon to get deeper.

It wasnt the end of their program but the ncaa isnt looking to end programs especially over money like usc
