Penn State Football Punished by NCAA over Sandusky Scandal By Steve Yanda Updated: Monday, July 23, 10:35 AM The Washington Post http://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/penn-state-football- punished-by-ncaa-over-sandusky-scandal/2012/07/23/gJQAGNeM4W_story.html . A shorter URL for the above link: . http://tinyurl.com/cz49nla . .The NCAA on Monday announced a series of unprecedented sanctions against the Penn State football program for its involvement in the sexual abuse scandal that centered on former coach Jerry Sandusky.
.The penalties include a $60 million fine, a four-year postseason ban, an annual reduction of 10 scholarships over a four-year period and five years of probation.
.But perhaps the most significant individual sanction in the context of college football history is that all of Penn States wins from 1998 to 2011 have been vacated, which means that Joe Paterno, who oversaw the Nittany Lions football program for nearly 46 years, no longer is the sports all-time winningest coach.
.As a result, Paternos win total decreased by 111 to 298. He now ranks No. 12 on the all-time coaching wins list. Eddie Robinson, who coached at Grambling University for 57 years, now ranks No. 1 among high-level college football coaches with 408 victories.
.The NCAA also announced Monday that current and incoming Penn State football players will be allowed to transfer from the school immediately without penalty. Typically, players who transfer from one Division I school to another are forced by NCAA rule to sit out one season.
.The NCAA is considering waiving scholarship limits for any football program that takes in a Penn State transfer. Teams typically are limited to 85 scholarship players.
.The school has signed what NCAA president Mark Emmert described as a consent decree and will not appeal the sanctions.
