It did mention Dantonio kicking players off the team. I seem to recall him doing something similar about 7,8 years ago about some players in s major fight.
If you want to go after someone go after Kelly at ND. The fiasco at CMU with the players involved in a murder or a team manager being blown off the video tower at practice and being killed. Now there's a guy who should be out of college athletics, not Dantonio or Izzo.
The power of the vigalante mob/knobs to be jury and judge always has to be controlled.
Pretty much agree.
I don't think these are really "cover-ups" rather than decisions to not act.
You want to start kicking every player out of school for accusations when the crime was looked into and even no charges filed, good luck. And then you want to blame the coaches when school admin, law enforcement do nothing?
It's a slippery slope because you act on one false allegation, that could lead to another and have a wide assortment of ramifications. If you want to start getting rid of players for every misdemeanor committed in school do we then look at there record before they enroll and reject them on that premise? I am sure there would be a number of players kicked off teams and plenty who would never have enrolled.
And as for someone saying this is "worse" that PSU. No, it's not. The coaches were the ones doing the molesting AND covering up some administration.
This ESPN story is obviously linked to Nassar. It seems they, many are out to indict the whole MSU community while playing it as a "culture" they created and accepted. The admin, the AD went down for it and that's fine. I just want to know when all the OTL are coming for schools, players that have been in similar situations, every sport, every athlete. If they want to clean up the NCAA, make change I don't think you tear down one house in the kingdom. You go for the king's castle.
But then again, the king pays their bills.
