Mike, the difference is that it is coupled with the child rape issue. By itself, no it's not enough for major sanctions. All this article lays out is that Paterno controlled the school. I know first hand that Wake athletes get special treatment. A good number of us have enough connections and are realistic enough to know this. When we have a Sandusky issue is when you can use the glass house comment.
Totally valid point. I was just taking the article by itself. I guess my biggest concern is this... Wake, much like Penn State up until a few weeks ago, prides itself on competing at a high level while at the same time doing things the right way. Like I said earlier, most of us know that Wake is NOT beyond reproach when it comes to things of this nature. I don't know about any smoking gun, but obviously I, like many others on this board, am aware of certain things that went on when I was a student. And I'm certainly not alone in this regard.
At any rate, I'm a big believer in karma. Pride goeth before the fall. And it really disturbs me to see so many on this board take so much delight in the situation at Penn State, because a few short weeks ago they were just like us. We had a close call of our own just a short time ago.
