On July 23, 2012, Penn State's football was given severe punishment for the school's handling of the sex abuse scandal involving former football assistant Jerry Sandusky.

NCAA President Mark Emmert made the announcement Monday morning that the program would be hit a four-year postseason ban and a $60 million fine.

In addition, the school will be forced to cut 10 scholarships for this season and 20 scholarships for the following four years.

What do you think.  Did the NCAA go to far or not enough?
