Message: [QUOTE="Townie72, post: 315004, member: 780"] Nobody is trying to minimize anything. The crimes were disgusting. The cover-up was cowardly and shameful. What some are doing --- myself and Orange PA --- is to suggest there is some sort of limit to how severely the University can be punished. And some danger in creating precedents and giving the NCAA a new role. This has to be thought through. Here's the question: If you were the judge and jury and all powerful, what would your list of punishments include? What's the full set that would satisfy you so that you felt that the punishment was adequate to the crime? I've been taught to test at the extremes. So would closing the University, tearing down the buildings and restoring the site to farmland be enough? Or too much? How about permanently eliminating all PSU intercollegiate athletic programs for 50 years? Enough or too much? How about eliminating PSU football for 10 years? Enough or too much? [/QUOTE]
