    lol at me ever reading something from a website that has this as their headline.

    Safeguard Old State is a non-profit advocacy group fighting for the rights and traditions of Penn Staters in State College, Pa.

    Im sure theres no bias there!

    So you are disputing all of the articles that it has linked to outside sources?

    What happens tomorrow is because a president took special power and didn't allow due process.

    I thought he was given special power by the other members of the ncaa for this one case? If that's the case I don't see what psu can do. This makes all the other members look bad if they don't do something to punish a member that covered up child rap. If psu doesnt agree with the rest of the ncca they can join the naia.

    In the W column? What kind of question is that?

    I'm just saying, you should have an elitist view against a team that beat you on the field.

    This has nothing to do with what happens on the field and it sad that you think it does. And I'm not sure what you mean by an "elitist view".

    If you knew who Trippony is, you will find this interesting to say the lease. Mark Emmert was the person who hired her at UConn and who she reported to. Now, 14 years later, Mark Emmert will be dropping the hammer on the program that Vicky Trippony has an ax to grind with.

    Tin hat stuff? Yeah, probably. But I know that bitch is in on this. I know it.

    Sounds like you have an ax to grind with Trippony more than she has one to grind with PSU.

    Did she discipline you while @ PSU?

    Nonetheless, embarrassing post for you.

    PSU and UConn students certainly have an ax to grind with her. She took away our student governments.

    Nonetheless, you should concentrate more on what's about to happen to your beloved PSU.......

    Not saying that at all. I'm saying that she had a talk with Emmert and expressed to him her one-sided views.

    You do not understand what I am saying.

    - This lady's mad at PSU
    - She friends with Mark Emmert
    - Mark Emmert is punishing PSU because he's friends with this lady

    That's exactly what you're saying.

    Want to know more about Triponey? She is a power hungry *****:

    I saw that when I started looking into the claims about Triponey being made by Penn Staters and found the second paragraph very telling:

    "In the interest of providing historical context, the document is presented here in its original published form, offering a look back to a period of time when a group of Penn Staters organized opposition to an insular administrative culture that elevated power and secrecy over transparency and open discourse.

    Administrative culture that elevated power and secrecy....

    What were many of us saying throughout this? Triponey may have been a problem and she may have control issues, but she has absolutely nothing to do with any of this. If anything, she was trying to get a handle on some of what encouraged this to happen. The lack of transparency wasn't her problem, it was a Penn State problem. Joe Paterno didn't like Vicky Triponey so loyal Penn Staters will have a problem with her even if she was only trying to make the school better only because of that and not because her behavior actually warranted all the hate.

    The same could be said for her. Why would she eliminate the student government if she wanted to promote transparency and distribute power over several groups?

    She was pissed because she did not have total power over punishment of students. Period.

    But she has absolutely NOTHING to do with this crap. The culture at Penn State promoted Joe Paterno's ability to hide Sandusky, not Vicky Triponey.

    And if you get right down to it, you guys didn't get hammered nearly as hard as you should have. So if Vicky Triponey has anything to do with this, you might want to thank her because apparently that axe you claim she has is dull.

    This is worse than the death penalty. This will set the program back 8-10 years. We got plenty of punishment.

    And you cannot tell me that Triponey isn't hyocritical here? Complaining about too much power at the top and transparency, and then taking away the students voice? Really?

    She may have been 100% right about what she was saying, but she is just as corrupt as the rest of them.
