Rodney Erickson to Appear on “Face The Nation”

Penn State President Rodney Erickson is set to appear on CBS’s “Face the Nation” show Sunday morning at 10:30 a.m.

According to a release by Penn State, President Erickson “spoke at length” to host Bob Schieffer this morning during the show’s taping about creating a new Penn State culture, as well as the Freeh report and subsequent NCAA sanctions.

Erickson reportedly told the Board of Trustees that Penn State faced a four year “death penalty” if he didn’t agree to the proposed NCAA sanctions, so hopefully he addresses that process a little more clearly during the segment.
