This seems like a bit of an extreme overreaction. Is there no possibility we could keep the college sports and lose the sexual abuse?

Given JoePa and Sandusky, no.

I honestly don't know, but I do know that a large chunk of college students and faculty have a deep investment in their various sports and saying the only solution is to cancel all of them, again, seems extreme.

Sometimes extreme solutions are needed, though. Thank you for posting that quote.

Given the Lovecraftian-style cult for JoePa at Penn State, it at least supports the premise of exercising the NCAA death penalty en masse.

This is systemic and the NCAA is unable and unwilling to do anything at all.

Friendly reminder that Emmert didn't death penalty PSU and cowardly backed off on any real sanctions when the cult of Paterno pushed back slightly.

Friendly reminder that Woody Hayes, considered one of the greatest College Football coaches of all time, was a complete psychopath who had meltdowns and assaulted numerous people on national TV yet didn't get shitcanned as a coach until he blatantly sucker punched Charlie Bauman after Bauman intercepted the ball. Also Bobby Knight had a career in commentating after a Hall of Fame College Basketball coaching career that included numerous player assaults and being an all around nutbar.

All college sports folks are bastards.
