All I heard on ESPN radio this morning (can those clowns be insufferable!) was how the NCAA has no case on rules infractions in this case since it is a criminal case yadda yadda yadda. Yeah, OK now I am the first one to denounce overbearing bureaucrats wherever they may be, but as Trap points out there is definitely a recruiting advantage by keeping this criminally oriented scandal quiet and by implication it is assumed that a Joe Paterno led team definitely won more games on the field with those players than they would have otherwise expected had all this come out at the time. If the NCAA does not give this program the Death Penalty, then it really has no argument to exist at all.
Joe tarnished his own reputation by not standing up for what was right and calling the police about what he knew about his coaching buddy and young boys. Had he done that he might be disliked by Sandusky and a few other idiots, but his conscience and reputation would have been clean. As it is, I could care less what happens to the statue or their program. PSU brought this on themselves, their tantrums and denials just show how whacked people are now days.
