Penn State

  • The sanctions levied by the N.C.A.A. against Penn State for its failure to curb predatory sexual behavior by Jerry Sandusky, a former assistant football coach, are severe and richly deserved.

  • All the big prizes Penn State usually plays for - the conference championships, the marquee bowl games - are off the table.

  • Outside of dictators, living people usually don't get statues put up in their honor. Joe Paterno wasn't a dictator; he was a demigod.

  • Penn State received the most severe punishment in major college football in 25 years, but it wasn't the "death penalty." And it isn't likely to affect Penn State's athletic future the way the NCAA's death penalty affected SMU in 1987.

  • USC athletic director Pat Haden offered sympathy for the victims and advice for Penn State in the wake of the unprecedented sanctions the school received Monday.
