The big news today in sports is of course the executive decision to fire both Penn State’s head coach Joe Paterno and Penn State President Graham Spanier for the way the school handled sexual abuse allegations of former Assistant Coach Jerry Sanduski. This news is breaking headlines across the web. According to the Los Angeles Times, a huge controversy is what will happen with the program. "USC football was put on major probation because Reggie Bush's parents were set up in a condo in San Diego. Ohio State awaits sentencing because players sold merchandise for tattoos. Miami may be deep-sixed because a rogue booster lavished players with gifts. Yet, the NCAA probably has no jurisdiction to punish Penn State football for allegedly concealing crimes against young boys,” said Chris Dufresne, writer for the Los Angeles Times. The big question we all want to know: what will the NCAA do?
