On top of that, the NCAA is actually considering a ruling that would cause the transferred players to be excluded from the 85 scholarship player limit. For example, if the University of Florida is at 85 scholarship players currently (which I don't think they are - this is just an example), they would still be able to take RB Silas Redd even though that would put them at 86 players. The NCAA is only considering this though, it's not done yet.

Lastly, EA Sports did incorporate USC's sanction into the game last year. They set USC's "Championship Contender" rating at a D+, and even if you won a NC the first year it barely went up. So it would be fair to attempt to virtually sanction Penn State in the game.
Correct on the transfer rule, NCAA waived it but says that teams that take on a transfer from penn st lose a scholarship that following year.

And about USC, EA didn't lower the player ratings, just the contender status. This guy wants to take a player like Silas and make him 50 overall
