Heath Evans: Penn State Needs To Be Shut Down

I say clean house with the staff...which PSU seems to have started. The students should not be punished...but the football team will be no matter what. Everyone on that football staff and anyone in the athletic department/administration who may have known should be gone. And, the players should be allowed to transfer without penalty.

This is a landmark case. There should be a lot of criminal charges.

Honestly...no. But it's a first step. It's a chance to show that there is something more important than "the program."

This is proof that sports has become too important in out lives

I agree with you that sports has become way too important in our lives. (I was actually thinking about cutting sports out of my life for a year as a New Year's resolution). But I also don't think that hurting the little guy (small local business) is a good plan.

And answer my question; What will shutting the football program accomplish?

I have no idea...but it irks me to no end that Paterno has the record. He does not deserve it. He allowed children to be raped for years. He deserves nothing other than punishment.

That would be like taking the 'Top Salesman of the Year' award away from someone because he got a traffic ticket.

The two don't go together.

    • Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen. 
    • Totally agree with you, if we had invested in drafting a corner or two I wouldn’t even ponder adding Ramsey. But, to be honest we legit added nobody to our corner room this offseason we have nobody worth developing. Even if Chau Smith Wade is better then what I think, he is the only guy we have invested draft capital into outside of our starters.
    • Look at his snap counts, your telling me that his entire college and pro football career every coach he has had has misused him? No offense but I don’t think you understand the role of a slot corner. Mike Jackson is the literal definition of an outside zone corner, he would be totally inept as a slot corner. Ala why he has been an outside corner his entire career.
