Here is what cracks me up.  Everybody to include the NCAA talk about this "culture" thing. They talk about football becoming "too big" at Penn State.   It is hypocritical for them to make statements about it.  The NCAA is a business. They are out to make money, just like any other business. They just came up with a 4 team playoff that will generate millions of more dollars. Syracuse would love to have a culture where we pack the dome every game, but we do not.  I am not condoning the behavior of some fans, but it would not be much different if the Fine allegations were true and people at Syracuse were accused of a coverup.  Then, people would be saying the Syracuse Basketball Culture was out of control.

I believe the NCAA had to take serious action and they did. I also believe the "culture" thing is a joke. Look at other college towns that pack 100,000 people in the stadium every home game. The fans and the team make the culture, and in the Penn State case, they had nothing to do with the crimes that occurred.

That being said, I live one hour from State College.  I am in the middle of Penn State country. I used to enjoy when Penn State lost a game. I will still enjoy them not being a top 25 team, but this culture thing is a joke.
