I was reading some al.com articles to scratch my football itch (hey...any port in a storm, amirite?).

One article mentioned the PSU sanctions and made reference to Roof coaching there now (no news) and that Zac Etheridge is a GA there.  It might have been previously discussed here, but that came as news to me.

I wonder if Zac is stuck there for at least this year or if he could have Chizik (or, hell, even Tuberville) pull a string to get him a new gig this year.

You can keep a wooden stake in your trunk
On the off-chance that the fairy tales ain't bunk
And Imma keep a bottle of that funk
To get motel parking lot, balcony crunk.

Jerry Sandusky walks into an elementary school just as classes are let out for the day, when a teacher approaches him & asks, "so which child is yours?"

Sandusky replies: "I don't care, surprise me."

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

TPTB that knows about the wrong doings at Penn State accepted the penalties in hopes that the NCAA wouldn't dig around.  They didn't think about the FBI & U.S. Postal Investigators doing the digging.

Quote
A source tells Radaronline.com that investigators are looking into an allegation that Sandusky and “a prominent Penn State booster” were involved in “illegal behavior with young boys.”

Penn State receives accreditation warning

By RON TODT, AP
Tue Aug 14, 7:19 AM UTC

Penn State has been put on notice by an accrediting organization that says the university's status is "in jeopardy" based on recent developments in the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal.

The Middle States Commission on Higher Education, which accredits universities in the Mid-Atlantic region, cited information in the school's internal investigation led by former FBI director Louis Freeh and the severe penalties imposed by the NCAA over the school's handling of molestation allegations against the former assistant football coach, who was convicted in June of 45 child sexual abuse counts.

In an Aug. 8 notice, the commission said that Penn State remains accredited while "on warning" but it wants a monitoring report submitted by the end of next month detailing steps taken to ensure full compliance with governmental requirements, that the university's mission is being carried out, that the commission will be fully informed and that Penn State is complying with standards on leadership and governance as well as integrity.

The commission also wants the report to address the university's ability to bear financial obligations stemming from "the investigation and related settlements, etc." It said "a small team visit" will be made, a standard practice "to verify institutional status and progress."

Penn State officials on Monday expressed confidence that they would be able to address all concerns expressed by the commission.

University president Rodney Erickson said that the commission "wants us to document that steps we have already taken and are planning to take will ensure our full compliance with its requirements." He said he was also confident that officials would be able to "fully demonstrate our financial stability."

"This action has nothing to do with the quality of education our students receive," said Blannie Bowen, vice provost for academic affairs in a statement posted on the university's website. "Middle States is focusing on governance, integrity, and financial issues related to information in the Freeh report and other items related to our current situation."

Bowen said the body doesn't issue a warning unless it believes that an institution can make improvements and remain in compliance, and "this is certainly true for Penn State.

"We're confident that our monitoring report and the site visit will confirm this to the commission," Bowen said.

You don't get how this works. 

SACS is the "Southern Association". No jurisdiction at PSU.  Middle States is the equivalent of SACS for schools in that region.

Or did I miss a joke here?

I think he was trying to incorporate SAC's as in ball sacks of 10 year old boys.
