Make the school pay, not the kids.

...you are aware that many of the players who were death penaltied at SMU were not even on the team when the pay for play shenanigans were going on...

...how do you separate the players from the program...it is a symbiotic relationship...without the one, the other doesn’t exist...if the program gets nailed, its essential ingredient, the players, by definition get nailed as well...

You argue my point. SMU got the death penalty for all around abuse by all. Those future players could have gone elsewhere knowing the program was dead.

Kids at Penn State didn’t do anything wrong by getting abused by some jerk.

All I’m saying is there is quite a difference here. If you advocate the death penalty for Penn St. then fine. So be it. I think it’s cruel to let them play for nothing.

Again, my opinion. Seems to be a waste now of FR to state one.
