You don't even have to read the responses...the title of this thread is enough...

What we REALLY believe about the Freeh investigation

In other words, we'll wait until the FACTS (they need to capitalize it, because "facts" just isn't strong enough) come out, but when they do, if we don't like them, we just won't believe them. Convenient.

I don't know... I really like this one. :rofl:

The Penn State football program is guilty of being a ... said:
National powerhouse. Just like ND, Mich, OSU, NEB, Bama, SC.

PSU operated just like those programs as far as power and influence.

Joe may have never had a serious NCAA infraction, but everything else was the same.

The only people who should be shocked are the holier than thou crowd.

:slappy: So... My question is: Who, to them, would the holier than thou crowd be? :slappy:

BWI... The gift that keeps on giving. For that, we thank you.

In honor of the 4th here is another "kaboom" for the PSU program.


http://chronicle.com/article/Records-Raise-More-Questions/132725/

Top Pennsylvania State University officials held a three-hour meeting to discuss Jerry Sandusky in 2001 over concerns about the former coach's behavior with a boy in the football showers. A law-firm billing record from that conversation describes a "report of suspected child abuse," according to a person with knowledge of an independent investigation into the matter.

Letters and e-mails that one former top Penn State administrator provided to Mr. Freeh's investigators show that Mr. Spanier and Wendell V. Courtney, the university's general counsel, repeatedly intervened on Coach Paterno's behalf in an apparent attempt to quash problems.

One such incident happened in 2007, when six football players were charged with forcing their way into an off-campus apartment and beating up several fellow students. After the university received a police search warrant requesting any documents related to the case, Mr. Courtney removed four letters and memos from a file, claiming the information violated the players' rights to privacy.

In one letter, Philip J. Burlingame, the associate vice president for student affairs, had written to Shirley M. Kitchen, a state senator apparently concerned about the university's response to the incident. Mr. Burlingame wrote that the university viewed the alleged assault "as a very serious criminal incident," saying "we fully intend to do all we can to identify and properly adjudicate all Penn State students who were involved as perpetrators of these crimes." The letter did not name any of the players charged in the attacks or any of the students involved; it did, however, name one of their parents.

In another letter related to the case, Joe Puzycki, Penn State's assistant vice president for student affairs, described how Coach Paterno had a text message sent out to every football player, saying that if any of them went into the student-affairs office to respond to the university's code of conduct complaint in the matter, they would be "thrown off the team." After Mr. Puzycki asked for a copy of that text message, a student said he could not provide it. According to the student, Coach Paterno reportedly said, "if you had a problem with that, you could call him directly."

As well it should...I mean when raping a young boy in the showers can be put aside...assault by six members of your team must be "kids being kids". I'm sure that none of these players would have contributed to the game being played...so there was no competitive advantage involved.

I could see the NCAA, getting inventive, saying the 6 football players should have been dismissed and that they were ineligible and taking away all the games they played in. Taking away JoPa's title as winning-est coach ever. That would be a good start.

I don't see where the NCAA has any business being involved in what the discipline should be for a fight. At issue is whether PSU has an appropriate set of internal controls over its football program. I don't know how inventive they have to be to say that this is something they want to take a look at.
