Assuming that's a serious post from a Penn State fan, I think this is the very heart of the problem. This is why we call you a fucking cult.
See, your identity is tied directly to that university. Your successes are theirs and theirs are yours. And that's why the Sandusky shit hurt you so much. There's an issue where a former assistant coach was using university facilities to molest kids. And that hurts you because you're so tied to that university. So, instead of being rational about it, you argue whether it happened... whether it COULD HAVE happened. And you convinced yourselves and each other that the rest of the world was out to get you.
And now, when some other shit happens at your university, you point fingers at everyone else, saying that everyone does it.
I didn't go to a Big Ten school, or even a school with a Div1 football team. But if some staff member ever gets found guilty for raping kids, I'd support putting him in prison forever. If the school was caught covering up for him, I'd want more people thrown in prison. And if a fraternity gets caught with a huge drug-dealing scheme, I wouldn't point at everyone else saying that it's just common practice.
Perception is reality - you THINK people are going to judge you based on what school you went to, and then people start judging you based on what school you went to.
