OTL E:60 clip from this morning - focuses solely in MSU MBB

Submitted by Dennis on January 28th, 2018 at 10:00 AM

Lauren Allswede provides an interview, and Travis Walton is on tape denying both the physical assault charges from January 2010, and gang rape accusation from April 2010. Interestingly, the video focused solely on MBB. http://www.espn.com/video/clip?id=22240940

This clip on Izzo is really damning. If Izzo survives this and keeps his job, then MSU will have a huge blackeye in the court of public opinion for years.

steps aside from being "worn down" after the season, rests a year, takes that NBA job.

Dantonio will probably "have a health scare" step aside for the sake of his family.

Both will retire at some point. The disgrace will be minimalized and MSU will make every effort to make it seem partisan.

The MSU basketball over up culture extends back to at least 1998 with a Mateen Cleaves related alleged assault. https://twitter.com/zachgorchow/status/957343962951450624

mentioned the Izzos gave a son the middle name of Mateen - is that right? Good grief, the guy had assault issues in college and now stands trial for sexual assault. I guess it’s fitting that the Izzo family is permanently & legally attached to a guy with a tainted track record.

and found it sickening. Agree that Dantonio has been lying and is part of an institutional coverup. He knew full well he had a bunch of rapists on his team, so to say "it's new ground" for them is a blatant lie. Some massive lawsuits and settlements are coming.

As this stays in the mainstream and more focus goes onto Izzo, is there a point when Nike says enough? They pull back from athletes during scandals and now the bball team will link the brand to sexual assault. Women’s groups and the #metoo topic is not an audience to piss off.
