The Paterno Family has sent a letter of appeal to the NCAA.  The letter was addressed to NCAA President Mark Emmert.  Emmert announced the sanctions against Penn State which included the vacation of wins for the football team.

The appeal mentions the "enormous damage to Penn State, the State College community".

The letter goes on to state that the NCAA acted "hastily" and without "due process".

The letter was written by J. Sedwick Sollers III and requests a fair hearing on the merits.  Sollers is a Managing Partner for King & Spalding law firm.
