NCAA To Announce "Unprecedented Penalties" Against Penn State

(CBS News) CBS News has learned that the NCAA will announce what a high-ranking association source called "unprecedented" penalties against both the Penn State University football team and the school.

"I've never seen anything like it," the source told correspondent Armen Keteyian.

NCAA President Mark Emmert will make the announcement Monday morning at 9 a.m. at the organization's headquarters in Indianapolis.

The penalties come in the wake of the independent report by former FBI Director Louis Freeh that chronicled repeated efforts by four top Penn State officials, including former football coach Joe Paterno, to conceal allegations of serial child sex abuse by Jerry Sandusky over a 14-year period.

The NCAA had been awaiting the school's response to four key questions pertaining to the sex abuse scandal, including issues involving institutional control and ethics.

As a lifelong Penn State fan this is one of the worst seris of events i've ever seen. I think the fines are rediculus the university is set to lose hundreds of millions in lawsuits why take more? losing the wins hurts but it is warrented. The bowl ban and scholarships just screw innocent people like the new head coach and innocent players. Its a sad year in State College. oh and the statue had to come down. A tragic ending to an otherwise great story. RIP Joepa they can't take anything more from you now. You will always be the winningest head coach in my book.

They got what they deserved.
