What Penn State Sanctions Mean For Ohio State & Big Ten
Monday, July 23rd, 2012I tried to have a normal lunch today, but there was no way to do it. After three minutes of banter with a friend he inevitably asked me, “So what do you think about the Penn State situation?”
Damn. I really thought I would be able to just eat a sandwich and move on with my day. No such luck. I instead forced myself to probe my feeble brain for what I thought of the whole thing, something I had avoided until then. And here’s what came to my mind:
- Bobby Bowden just backed his way back into the record books.
- A lot of kids who had nothing to do with the whole situation have effectively had their accomplishments wiped clean (not that I think this matters much, everyone still remembers the Fab Five)
- Recruiting just got a lot easier for east coast teams and Big Ten foes, in particular Ohio State
- Prepare for the transfer exodus
