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.
It sends a strong message to other schools that they will be made accountable for their actions off the field.
