Check this article out. It's pretty darn long but needless to say Dantonio and Izzo both are in some hot water. That whole damn school pretty much deserves the death penalty if even some of this is true. I'd heard an ESPN gal yesterday pretty much say that but that was prior to me reading any of this. At the time I heard her I thought she was just bloviating but now... I'm not sure even that'd be enough.
 
I read the OTL report too. It would take a lot of force either one of those two out, particularly Izzo, but damn that doesn't look good. Numerous sexual violence reports about football players and two incidents from one of Izzo's coaches. Wow

IKR. Neither of their coaches hands are clean not even close. What got me too was how more than once MSU surpressed the names of student athletes being investigated for sexual assaults and then sued ESPN for investigating it basically. I mean Holy crap
 
I think the whole landscape has changed. MSU is in deep trouble...I see more heads rolling in the MSU athletic department, including the sanctimonious D'antonio, who is the biggest hypocrite/scumbag of them all. There is a pattern of sexual abuse with his players during his entire tenure at MSU and he has been instrumental in the cover up. The Big Ten should boot MSU out of the league, but of course they won't do it.

One would think so but if they can fire em with cause then their crazy contracts and buyouts be damned. Don't let the door hit you on the way out. Good luck getting a good reference from your AD that just resigned ahead of ya.
 
I hope OTL never visits Iowa campus. I would like to think we are cleaner (I am not so naive to think clean), but it does make you wonder what would get turned up if people started asking the tough questions.
 
And just to emphasize, the issue is not that MSU FB or BB players committed assault. That can happen at any school. But the failure to mount the proper response (assault complaints against athletes were handled directly by Athletic Dept personnel instead of usual University channels), and then the suppression of information are the damning violations.

I don't think anybody will ever get the SMU death penalty again. I mean if Penn St didn't get it for one of the most egregious acts and situation ever, I don't think anybody else will.

I didn't think so either for the same reasons but the more I thought about it this encompasses the entire AD department not just football or one sport. This is literally top to bottom systemic suppression. The more the onion gets unwound here I don't see how the idea of some sort of death penalty can be ignored.

IMO, every Power 5 team has skeletons in a closet somewhere. I'm guessing most would be things like academic fraud, eligibility rules being bent, and hundred dollar handshakes. I believe, and hope, that cases like PSU and MSU are few are far between.

They will get a slap on the wrist just like Pedo State.

The landscape has changed. Reality today is that sexual harassment can generate more internet outrage in the #metoo movement than the whole Sandusky trial did.

This should be a wake up call to skeletons in the closet everywhere though.

I don’t get your point. How many times did Baylor lead the national news? Not sports news, but national.

The media smells blood now. I don't see how they'll stop digging anytime soon. If there's any validity to what's been put out there so far both of those coaches are toast. Now that the AD is gone nobody there can really stand up for them and whomever comes in next sure won't have any reason to.
