People are still talking about the lawsuit announced by Governor Tom Corbett against the NCAA. It was announced Wednesday, that Corbett wants all the sanctions imposed on PSU revoked. 

CBS 21 News talked to people Friday about what they think and it was the same common theme we've heard all along about the sanctions. Don't punish the players.

Six months after the NCAA slapped unprecedented santions on Penn State, Governor Tom Corbett has vowed to sue the organization, to revoke them.

In York County, some people say even if it costs them as taxpayers, they support the lawsuit.


Rebecca Baldwin says she doesn't mind paying the fees.  "To tell you the truth, I really don't mind paying for justice." 

A 60 million dollar fine, a four year bowl ban, loss of scholarships and other penalties, were just too much for them.

Ryan Scott says, he doesn't mind either.  "There are a lot more things that are injust. This one I don't mind paying for, that's how strongly I feel about whats happened."

Other Penn State devotees think enough is enough, they are ready to fight on, and leave everything related to the Sandusky scandal behind. 

But one common theme, even with acceptance, is questioning who is being punished.

Part of Corbett's lawsuit claims this was a criminal matter, and the NCAA had no right to punish current players, students, and state college residents.
