Why is a private organization (The NCAA) assessing the penalty for a CRIMINAL act?
It’s not like this was a violation of the rules of the game of football and/or the college’s football-related recruiting activites, it was a criminal activity not related to the game of football.
People should be going to jail, not getting fined by the NCAA.

Penn State gained a competive advantage they would not have had the truth about Sandusky come out.

People are "going to jail". Sandusky.
People are still liable to "go to jail".
In fact, the NCAA explicitly reserved the right to take actions within its authority against individuals who are judged guilty of civil or criminal violations.

I suppose it depends on the state, but private organizations like Homeowners Associations and Realtor Associations can assess penalties on members as well.
