This is bad all around. Especially for the young woman. Also for Dunn. While it isn't great for OSU, at least he wasn't on the team right now. IIRC, we had recruited him as well. You could say Michigan dodged a bullet. Hope there is a silver lining, and that this helps Dunn make changes.
Everyone is different, and no one is motivated the same way or attracted to do the same thing as someone else. Having said that, rape is something which I find unfathomable on a personal level. I just don't understand why someone would want to do that.

We recruited him quite aggressively. That recruitment peaked (from an MGoBlog perspective) right around the time Tressel was fired. IIRC, he was a near 5* who was close to flipping to Hoke in Spring 2011.

...unless Dymonte had him excommunicated from the family.

Thinking about it from the victim's perspective, I imagine that's something that even the most resilient victim never fully recovers from. I can't imagine anything more scarring than sexual abuse of any kind.

Not sure if serious but zero idea what your point is. That rape isn't so bad? Or just joking? Wtf... really...

It's just that we don't believe you, and disbelieving is not a stretch.

Broader posting history of being provocative to the point of absurdity + Weirdly provocative claim = Skepticism.

I'd normally get all self righteous about this, but we're not exactly squeaky clean this week.

It's not only ok to throw stones at rapists, but I feel it's ok to throw some .308 caliber bullets at them also.

Or just a fan of specifying the caliber of bullets for various tasks.

Also Dymonte Thomas's cousin.

Yeah know this won't end well and you know it's a dick move to post it. You must really love First Take.

Uh, OK. I don't know why you replied to me with that. I mentioned nothing of the sort.
October 4th, 2017 at 8:34 PM ^
I remember his recruitment. Meyer told him that if he took another visit to Michigan he would pull his offer. Dunn blinked.

I had always heard that while his immaturity was well-noted and troublesome, a lot of what kept him back was an unwillingness to contribute in other ways such as on special teams. They used to gripe endlessly about that on 11W, and it did end up sitting him comfortably behind Elliott and while he supposedly was in the mix with Weber last year, his troubles at that time cut his career short.

If I remember correctly, he watched The Game from Michigan's sideline, wearing a Michigan visitor pass and decked out in maize and blue.

Oh man. That's awful.
I feel horrible for the (alleged) victim. This is one of those situations where the rivalry shouldn't factor into our reaction (particularly since Michigan recruited him hard and nearly flipped him after he committed to OSU).

One bit of positive spin from all of these sexual assault reports:
I wonder if the message is getting out that it's not shameful to report a sexual assault. Some peoples are ashamed - and shamed - to come forward. As we move forward as a society, I hope victims of assault realize that reporting these incidents could prevent further crimes and increase awareness for victims' rights.

I believe you're missing the point. Also: Jourdan*

AFAIK, Jordan Lewis was never accused of sexual assault. And neither was Jourdan Lewis.

the same guy that hits up this blog from time to time (until the new server took him away). imagine that.

Whoops. I added a period at the end.
