I guess technically no they don't need proof. But they aren't gonna level us too hard without some hard proof.


I was thinking back to Penn State. What they did was not even football related and their program got hit pretty hard. Mainly for PC reasons. Granted, Sandusky is POS, but I dont see why in the hell that brought santions against their football team. Just throw his sorry butt in jail and bring criminal charges where they apply. This is the sort of thing that worries me. PC issues fuel the NCAA.

Don't lump this in to a molestation case that has zero similarities.

The biggest issue there -- and the one that blows my mind -- is Lack of Institutional Control. It was common knowledge (and then was confirmed during the subsequent investigation) that two years prior to the Sandusky thing, a handful of Penn State Board members went to Joe Pa and asked him to announce his retirement. They were prepared to give him all the fanfare and trimmings of going out on top. Parades, victory tours, streets named after him, etc.

But he refused. He told them to get fricked and that he would coach as long as he wanted to. And he did.

Sooooo, you have a public institution where the football coach tells the Board what the terms of his employment will be. Not the other way around. That is the VERY DEFINITION of Lack of Institutional Control. And they should have gotten the Death Penalty for that, and not because their defensive coach was buggering kids.
