The Lions' Pride

USC fan here.

Sorry PSU fans. It's bullshit and the wrong people are being punished. USC plus Penn St = 70 kids who won't get a chance to college thanks to the NZAA. If your coach can retain this recruiting class and pull in some good classes in the future, maybe the future won't be as bleak as it appears.

Fight on.

Bama Fan here (still living in Tuscaloosa)...
You are an amazing fan base that showed your class with out H&H the past two years. It would be even more of a crime for your fan base to throw the baby out with the bath water... stay strong and place the blame in the proper place with Jerry S.

All NCAA football fans are pulling for your fans to stay strong...

Where?

He's asking where the normal human is, numbnuts.

You must feel like the cool kid in class. Congratulations, talking crap on our board right after the NCAA pummels us.

You're just another half wit who can't see beyond what the media tells you is "the truth."

I have to think the Michigan State fanbase is better than the pile of dung they've been sending over here lately.

I'm an Auburn guy and have posted a few times along the way for several months saying I wished you the best and no matter what keep your head up and always be proud of your school. Sometimes things aren't fair and innocent people suffer but all you fans have done nothing wrong. Stand together and support you school amd make it an even better place than before all this started.

By the way new-era, you have to make a choice between bama and Auburn. I know you will pull for the Tigers

Fuck off. You're an idiot who doesn't know how to differentiate collegiate athletics from law. So you are happy that 70 kids won't get a chance to go to college? Shows just how classy you are, dirtbag.

And also since you're incompetent, Sandusky was a lone human, not a Penn St message board.

You've got a liberal definition of "the entire public." There's plenty of people out there who have said NCAA should not be involved here. And you claim we're the ones with heads in the sand?

The fact that you're using "NCAA and the public" as your "backup" is beyond laughable. Yeah, you're right. Everything the NCAA does is justified, right? They're the end-all be-all of moral arbitration. Along with the general public.

You sure are bringing new meaning to the question "how dumb can you be?"

Furthermore... Suppose on of your colleagues molests a kid and your boss covers it up. It gets found out and your entire company gets disbanded and you lose your job. You get no due process, none whatsoever, and you get no plea to keep your job. Would you be applauding the punishment?

No, you'd be crying injustice just like the common PSU fan is today (and rightfully so).
Take your trolling to the blue board if you actually believe the nonsense coming out of you.

USC feels for you Penn St fans. The only silver lining I can think of is that the NCAA is overstepping their bounds too much these days and they will be sued into the ground and destroyed because of it.

Best of wishes to you all. If you live and breathe football like I do, I know this is tough for you all.

You understand this was mostly a punishment for a cover-up?

They said current PSU football players will be allowed to stay in school and on scholarship at PSU or transfer to another university.

Penn State was incompetent as a university.

And yet the most tangible punishments are the punishments to student athletes.

That is not right no matter what way you dice it.

I think the NCAA has decided to become tough on issues, and it started with PSU. If they find problems at other universities, I think they should and need to clean it all up. If they find MSU players partook in rape, I think perhaps they need to step in and force change.
