To know that this occurred at my alma mater with as egregious wrongdoing, it'd be tough to swallow supporting the program WITHOUT a plan of action to correct mistakes. I would even include a year without the program in order to flush the poisonous people out of leadership roles.
A people-ectomy, if you will.

Well that whole punishing the kids and coaches there now thing doesn't fly with me. You can always go to another school and play football and receive a free education. You can always go coach at another program. Penn State is not the end all be all of CFB. Death Penalty!

part of me thinks a ban is warranted. I have nothing to support this but my thoughts are that Paterno and Admin knew, and let it go to keep it on the down low, hoping it would go away and the image of Paterno and PSU football would be untarnished. Once that happened, the slave became the master so speak and Sandusky had leverage and the furthering the cover up became even more necessary to protect the image that was PSU football. If that is true, take football away and let value of the program come back to reality. Much like the hazing incident for the FAMU band. In reality, I wouldn't support a ban though, It's too isolated of an instance. Paterno is no longer with us, Sandusky is in the big house (and I don't mean Michigan) and he doesn't make it much past the bowl season anyway and the other Admins involved are going to get jail time. I wouldn't support it for an SEC school either - as long as it was a non-football related/NCAA matter and criminal proceedings prevailed.
