Question: Regarding the huge indemnity the school is required to pay, as part of its punishment, to the others in its conference, does the money come from the secret slush fund that big-time, college, "amateur," athletic departments maintain or will the state's taxpayers foot that bill?
Lesson 1: The fact that the school freed all its football student-athletes to go continue their careers elsewhere is a good measure of what value the education, which is supposed to be the reason for awarding them scholarships, has in the college athletic scheme of things. "Why, we give these scholarships so that poor kids have a chance to get a college education." MY ASS! Did you check on the fraction of them that ever get ANY sort of degree, even in the Mickey Mouse majors that allow them to pass as students while pursuing their minor league athletic careers?
Lesson 2: Of course, the overriding education we all got is the mountain of dirt and filth that gets concealed and ignored in order to let a football college keep its ball rolling. Think of all the lives ruined by Sandusky AFTER his avocation was well-known by university officials.
