This was debunked a bit. It's not original, and USC had the same shirt (just in red). It is not a Psu shirt, either. Made by some sleazy company.

Wow another classless shirt that shows the culture of the area.
Time to move on and realize this isn't about football. Comparing the NCAA to Communism is absurd and is an insult to the real victims.

You people need to wake up. It is acceptable to seperate the criminal charges of those involved and what the NCAA has done.
This whole crap about the victims this victims that is going a little overboard. Not every little thing PSU does has to be about them. Not trying to be insensitive but come on!

The shirt shows little about the culture in the area. And, you are correct, this isn't about football. And, that is exactly why so many are upset with the NCAA and the sanctions which they have levied. The NCAA preyed on the weak to further their image.
This whole argument that those who are pissed off at the NCAA or support Penn State are insulting the victims or don't care about the victims is simply piss poor logic. Despite what the media, other team's fans, and folks like yourself don't realize is that it IS possible to support Penn State, be pissed off at the NCAA, AND support the victims.

The comparison to communism is an exaggeration to highlight the overstepping of the NCAA in this situation. It's not absurd at all unless you think what the NCAA did and how they did it was perfectly legitimate.
What the NCAA did didn't just impact our football did it? “Overstepping Their Bounds And Punishing The Innocent.” Innocent = Alumni, Students, Local Businesses, Teachers, and countless others.
I can't stand the people that automatically take any push back on the steamroller as an "insult to the victims". Anything anyone wants to do to our school is justified huh?
Just keep bending over and walking around backwards...

Yep, it's so easy to play the victims card here, but nobody here is advocating child molestation by questioning the NCAA's involvement. Be quiet or it means you are happy about kids being abused. Really...STFU with that nonsense already. It's the most immature arguement ever made. Grade school kids use better logic.

I'm not being insensitive but I bet that victim 4 and victim 12 both buy this shirt considering they already spoke out against the NCAA for punishing PSU

Wow...I'm with everyone else here. No more pandering here. I'm done. We did nothing wrong...people involved will go to jail...get over it. Youre with us or against us...NCAA is obviously against us. Someone make shirt that says "GFY NCAA" and I'll buy 10. Even better I'd like to see a shirt say "GFY Stephen A!!!!" Anyone else?
Sincerely,
One Wild and Classy Guy

Let me see. We can punish you and there is no recourse you can take, we are the final word. We are the judge and jury! If you defend yourself we will alienate you and just to make sure we have made our point we will send you to reeducation camp for 4 years, I mean probation. By the way, all our rules do not apply to you because the Dear Leader NCAA said do! P.S. your board signed off at gun point so everything is “legal!” Somewhere Che is smiling.
