The Penn State Board of Trustees will hold a special meeting via conference call at 5 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 12. The sole purpose of the special meeting is for the trustees to consider ratification of the binding consent decree imposed by the NCAA and accepted by the University.

Ratification: a principal's approval of an act of its agent where the agent lacked authority to legally bind the principal
If they do anything but approve the sanctions they will have to make room for a fourth ring in this circus. What would make such an act particularly interesting is that they have sat for weeks watching players transfer without saying yeah or nay. Anything but ratification signifies the utmost failure by the BOT. All fingers of ridicule will point to Happy Valley like the hand of a compass points North.

Oh8ch;2192038; said:The only rational reason for such a meeting is to cut the legs out from under the RoBOT. But a vote means accountability. Gonna be interesting.
In any case it indicates to me that the BOT wasn't sure how the University is supposed to run either.
1. They have a skeleton in their closet that they don't want found with additional investigation.
2. They are not putting the university's best interest first.
3. They are incredibly stupid.
Didn't Emmert tell Erickson he could not inform the entire BOT before signing or else they would get the death penalty? I think that was in Van Natta's story
