Jayrob,
While lack of institutional control is enough, they stated this AM the bylaws that gave them the right to levy these punishments.
“We are proud that Coach Eddie Robinson will remain the winningest football coach in the history of college football. As the Grambling family has said all along, regardless of the action of the NCAA, Eddie G. Robinson will forever be remembered as the coach with more football victories than anyone else.â€
Welcome to the NCAA's slippery slope. This what y'all wanted. Y'all wanted y'alls pound of flesh. However, y'all also allowed some ole Emperor Palpatine-type stuff to happen in college athletics as well. Now the NCAA has the precedent to punish programs for off-the-field incidents.
Penn State deserved to be punished, but that's what the legal system, civil courts and the US Department of Education were going to do. The NCAA basically called an audible on this and decided to unilaterally punish the school.
Now is definitely the time for athletic programs to tighten up on themselves and their student-athletes.
All of Coach Robs wins were not at the D1 level... Some of them were naia and d2 wins. Also leave goddell alone. Those are grown men gettin paid to do a job. If I mess up at my job too many times I get fired.
here you goLack of institutional control in reference to what? State the bylaws that were quoted by the NCAA broken by Penn State.
Jrock can't do it, can you?
I guess Eddie G Robinson record will now stand forever.

Big Ten says Penn State will not receive any share of the conference revenues for 4 years.
If you don't think covering up for a child molester and providing him access, keys, and an office to continue molesting kids constitute a violation, then....If the NCAA can punish a football team that has committed no violations like this,
here you go
Bylaws?! Hahahaha!! You say the NCAA has bylaws?! I'm still waiting on you to show me that bylaw that specifically relates to child sexual abuse that's supposed to be on the books.
The NCAA made-up rules that was never on the books and Penn State simply cowered and let them get away with it.
It's as simple as that. They could've contested those penalties in court.

4 year postseason ban. Vacate all wins from 1998-2011. $60M fine. 5 years probation. Plus other requirements.
If you don't think covering up for a child molester and providing him access, keys, and an office to continue molesting kids constitute a violation, then....
not an NCAA violation.... a criminal matter but not a NCAA matter. For example if 10 football players rap a college student.... that is a criminal matter... the NCAA isnt going to punish the school.
in that scenario, you didn't mention anything about the coach, AD, president knowing about the rape, covering it up and allowing the players to keep on raping even more students.not an NCAA violation.... a criminal matter but not a NCAA matter.

:tup::tup:The NCAA is a separate entity and can levy penalties on their membership if it is or isn't a criminal matter. Is it a criminal matter for a booster to give a student athlete a car? Is it an NCAA violation for a booster to give a student athlete a car?
If you don't think covering up for a child molester and providing him access, keys, and an office to continue molesting kids constitute a violation, then....
Still not an NCAA violation according to that massive rule book.
