A new poll finds significant opposition among Pennsylvania residents to NCAA sanctions leveled against Penn State.
Forty-four percent of Pennsylvania adults say the NCAA penalties are too severe, 33-percent call them appropriate and 14-percent say they're not tough enough. Opposition rises above 50-percent among those with Penn State ties. That's according to a Quinnipiac University/CBS News/New York Times poll out Thursday.
The NCAA fined Penn State $60-million, imposed a multi-year bowl ban, invalidated 112 wins and took away future scholarships over the school's handling of child sex abuse allegations against former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky.
The penalties have stirred an outcry among Penn State alumni. The poll of 1,494 people has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.5 percentage points.

Maybe the $1.1 BILLION price tag isn't so crazy?
