Penn Fans and Exaggerated Glory in Grid era Controversy
A Journal-World editorial denounces hanging in effigy of college football coaches as the Penn State and other schools face fan behavior. Penn alumni defend their school but subsequent incidents suggest Penn riders may rank in a troubling class. George Munger built a winning Penn program and endured abuse. Steve Sebo also faced taunts and a late rehiring sparked resignations among athletic board members. Sports Illustrated later analyzes the Penn chaos and asks for extenuating facts.
