Balta1701 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Penn State University will be hit with fines in excess of $30 million as part of "significant, unprecedented penalties" expected to be announced Monday by the National Collegiate Athletic Association, a source familiar with the case told CNN on Sunday. While the school's football program will not face the so-called "death penalty" that would have prevented the team from playing in the fall, the school might have preferred a one-year suspension because of the severity of the scholarship losses, postseason sanctions and other penalties, the source said. That seems like a pretty hefty fine for an athletic dept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fine them whatever the hell they want. Plus it's a Penn State fine anyway, they'll pull money from wherever. Glad they are getting torn apart for this. The systematic failure deserves a punishment like this, plus bowl/scholarships and whatever else they come up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlliniKrush Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) Here's the Paterno statement before they make it, they would like to remind you that these sanctions "do not serve the victims of Jerry Sandusky's horrible crimes or help heal the Penn State community." BTW, way to kick Paterno and family with the vacated wins just for good measure. Good for them. Edited July 23, 2012 by IlliniKrush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont give the stupid a chance to rally around the team. The one thing they were clearly trying to do was to avoid punishing the current players who had no idea about this when they signed up, and I can tolerate that. Penn State can have games, the money from those games just goes to fund independent sex-abuse agencies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NCAA said the $60 million was equivalent to the average annual revenue of the football program. The NCAA ordered Penn State to pay the penalty funds into an endowment for "external programs preventing child sexual abuse or assisting victims and may not be used to fund such programs at the university."
