Besides, your theory is rather silly since it presumes that the city exists to support the football team instead of the university.

What exactly will this punishment prove to anyone though? A majority of the people it will affect had nothing to do with any of it. If you lost your job because some higher up diddled some little kids, would you be all fine and dandy because we have to protect the children?
I understand that sounds really harsh, and I do think what Sandusky did was absolutely horrific, but don't punish someone who had no part in the incident. Go after the guys who did...and go after them hard.
As for the denialists, sure they may be absolutely crazy/sick but at the end of the day that's their own business, and while very questionable is an opinion there allowed to have.
