What's good about it? Does banning Penn St. players from playing in bowl games and being competitive provide any justice or solace to the people affected by Sandusky & the cover-up?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't Penn St. cleaned house of everyone remotely involved with the cover-up? What exactly does killing the football program for their replacements achieve?
I agree with the fines, but killing the football program isn't any measure of justice on anyone who's in the wrong - it's a symbolic action that shifts the focus on football instead of the real criminals.
