Izzo "I have the utmost faith and respect" (for Simon)

Fuck Michigan State forever. 

This is awful. Fuck Michigan State. At least Penn State had the sense to hire former FBI Director Louis Freeh to do an investigation.

Fuck Izzo. Fuck MSU. Fuck Penn State.

How MSU has handled this is unbelievably stupid and threatens the crediblity of the entire institution. Faculty has to step up and demand change because  the administration refuses to do so.

People like to mock MSU's academics on here, but it is a good school with some reputable programs. MSU is part of intellectual corridor that is the driving force behind the potential renaissance of the state's economy which is why this is bad for all Michiganders.

Finally and most importantly, the victims have to hear contrition from MSU. They have to try to make amends with Nassar's victims.

As pressure grows externally, it's only a matter of days or weeks until LAS announces that she's resigning 'of her own will'. They can't survive this unscathed

Here’s an honest question: what is he supposed to say? No comment? I’m just focused on my team right now?

I don’t know what you’re really supposed to say here.

in their right mind should send their daughter to MSU

Unless you know something about the situation? If not shut your mouth!

You are part of the problem.  Burn it down.

After all, she didn't through his two rapist players off the team a few years back.

Wow its almost as if they took that quote out of context

As the Father of My Freshman Daughter and My Freshman Niece in Lansing, all information I have in the wake of Nassar suggests MSU is protecting The University, Players, Coaches, rather than other people's Daughters and Nieces. IF my niece or daughter had the unthinkable visited upon them, and the University buried and covered it up, I doubt I'd be merely calling for Resignations, I'm guessing I might be more vigilant and want pain visited upon them. Simon and Hollis need to be fired, resign, and possibly prosecuted.

Mark Dantonio referred to himself in the third person...

That's gotta be the most Dantonio thing ever

I too "hope that the right man was convicted".  Though I thought Nassar's multiple guilty pleas kinda put that to rest, Tom.  But then again, you ain't paid by the law school.

If this happened at U of M, and coaches gave quotes similar, I would be done with the program.  I know that's easier for me not being an alumnus, but this is disgusting, especially in the wake of Penn State.  The NCAA is a laughable failure.  MSU is giving an example of precisely how not to do things.  I can't believe how low people and institutions will go to protect their own interests, but sadly it isn't surprising anymore.
