Penn State should have never been sanctioned in the first place. The Sandusky stuff had NOTHING TO DO WITH GAINING AN IMPROPER ADVANTAGE ON THE FIELD, and had NOTHING TO DO WITH ON-THE-FIELD WINS AND LOSSES...
Now if they would've found out certain players were trading sex for scholarships at Penn State, then the NCAA would've had an improper benefits case.
I agree.
But an argument could be made that by not turning in Sandusky for his crimes, Penn State was granted the services of a top assistant, which definitely impacts a program.
