[Husker] Penn State's Penalties

[Scott Lawson]

I'm ok with this new precedent. Perhaps it will make scumbag pedophile coaches think twice about raping young boys. Plenty of people were in positions to do something to stop this nonsense when that monster was there.

Shows what I know :) no appeal I guess.

What a chilling new precedent that has been sent. NCAA pres is now
judge, jury, and executioner anytime the presidents and exec commitee
are too cowardly to act on their own.
