Message: [QUOTE="HtownOrange, post: 723848, member: 622"] The purpose of the sanctions against the football program is to make PSU; the school, student body (past and present), donors and the fans; feel pain and to help ensure it does NOT happen again. Everyone understands that the kids at PSU today did not cover up the Sandusky actions. However, the school needs to feel pain and limiting the football team (which is worshiped and is the big money maker for the school) will help to cause this pain to the institution. Many here, and I am one, believe that the sanctions did not go far enough. SMU fully understood the impact of cheating. PSU has literally ruined the lives of several children and should get some punishment that forces them to realize that football does NOT transcend laws and morals. [/QUOTE]
