If PSU "pled" they would have given themselves the sanctions.

It's simple: nobody's stopping the NCAA because they have the authority to do what they did. Everybody, save one person, sees that.

Mud: I agree with you. The NCAA is filling a void because of popular pressure. I just don't like it.

This could be written as "the NCAA is stepping up their authority. I just don't like it."

WTF, I worked hard on the "Julius Caesar crossing the Rubicon" line to establish some sort of messageboard street cred... I'm going back to posting dick jokes.

Believe in me Don.

Be in me....

And yes, PSU pled. If they hadn't, this case would still be ongoing, because absolutely none of the NCAA said normal enforcement procedures have begun. There was no NCAA investigation. No letter of allegations was sent, nor a response proffered. There was no hearing. Emmert went to PSU and said "accept this or else" and they accepted it. If you don't want to call that a plea bargain, make up some new name for it, but the idea is exactly the same.

Penn State Board of Trustees to meet this afternoon regarding President Rodney Erickson's handling of NCAA sanctions

The Penn State Board of Trustees will meet this afternoon to discuss President Rodney Erickson's accepting NCAA sanctions against the football team without hearings or approval from the board, a source said.

Some board members say Erickson broke Standing Order IV under "Matters Requiring the approval of the Board of Trustees."

Provision 2-e of Standing Order IV states the following actions must be approved by the board: Authorization to borrow money; authorization of persons to sign checks, contracts, legal documents, and other obligations, and to endorse, sell or assign securities.

Newly elected members Anthony Lubrano and Adam Taliafero are among some board members who have been critical of Erickson's acceptance of NCAA sanctions, which included a $60 million fine.

Yes, please fight it. Get it overturned. Have the NCAA investigate. Have your football program eradicated. Then try to get the previously agreed to sanctions put in place instead. Sounds worth the effort.

This means another month, at least, of 65% PSU based B&B shows.

rpb is wrong. Phil McCracken is useful.

RPB is right. You suck.

I support the use of advanced statistics to figure the amount of airtime on the B&B show that are dedicated to child rape talk.

This means another month, at least, of 65% PSU based B&B shows.

So Erickson just left through a back door. No comment to media. BofT meeting is still ongoing. I am really curious where this goes.

There is not a damned thing wrong with people who are bull shitters.

Congrats on being better than me, Psycory.

It'd be great if they decide to reject the NCAA penalties and then are given a four year death penalty.

I would LOVE to say more but I probably shouldn't, I will say I always found it curious that Erickson was given the Presidents position without a nationwide search.
They did a nationwide search for my lowly position.

Congrats on being better than me, Psycory.

IB why do you think this is outside of their jurisdiction?
