Damn, you are one hard headed, narrow minded individual. Football Programs, Universities, and Corporations are not just entities that exist in a vacuum. They are run by individuals that have the power to make policy, make decisions, and dictate to others how they are run.
The people in power of the Penn State Football Program (The Head Coach and AD) along with the people in power of the University (The President and VP) made a decision to not turn in a criminal for committing criminal acts on their campus in their facilities.
So by banning PSU from fielding a football team, how have you punished any of those four individuals?

I think it does "punish" further the reputations and careers of those associated. Although anything more than what has happened to those involved is lagniappe for the victims.
My opinion that the NCAA should be involved with the punishing of PSU is in part, based off the facts that it was Sandusky, a former arse. Coach, no pun I swear, who's heinous crimes were covered up, while still a coach, and thus preventing legal action to occur. If these crimes had been brought to the public when they happened, obviously Sandusky would have been fired and jailed. The PSU football program would have suffered a long period of poor recruiting due to public opinion, see SMU and what they did is no where near the PSU scandal. The football program, and the AD were more concerned with public perception, than doing the right thing, so that PSU Football could continue to make money off of a historic and pristine brand to fund other PSU sports programs.
Yeah bring on the DP NCAA....
