In the end the players at Penn State arent being penalized, they had an opportunity to transfer without recourse, they still have scholarships, they still are playing football, the better players will still get drafted. That they miss an Outback Bowl or 2 isnt really a hardship.

I'm wondering if the schools would just face huge fines instead. You get to go to the Outback Bowl, but you the school will not see the money from the bowl.
