There is obviously no comparison at all.  I'm not talking about "comparing" them.  I'm just acknowledging John's assertion that the NCAA is setting a brand new precedent here.  It's a precedent that could apply to something far less than Jerry Sandusky molesting young boys.

I have to agree with you, John.  These transgressions never affected who was eligible or ineligible to play football games and thus this is not the NCAA's business.

 

I have no problem with the NCAA - or anyone else - whacking PSU over this, but the precedent it sets opens up a whole new realm of potential investigations and punitive measures.  Should UGA be punished for their continued off-the-field problems that they can't seem to get a handle on?  Should Mizzou be penalized for not firing a coach who endangered the public with his drunk driving?  Should Arkansas be punished for not keeping closer tabs on a coach that was having an affair with a subordinate?  Where are we drawing the line?
