Why We're 5-8 in the BE

What's incredible in this case, the MSU and other sports cases, is you see the AD telling the coach to handle it.  First, as you are pointing out, that is a violation of Title IX.  Second, it exposes your highest priced employees to unnecessary legal risk. Third, it will always look like you are covering something up.

When you have an AD who's been in place forever, reporting to a president who has been there forever, supported by a trustee that has been there forever (and seems to have conflicts of interest all over the place), let's just say I am not surprised.

Lastly, the press seems very overly focused on frats and athletics in these cases.  Granted, the formula for trouble is there and is sensational.  However, no real focus is on other victims, which are the vast majority of cases.  This has become known as the "Buzz Williams incidents", for example, and the other 100 cases handled in the same poor way are barely mentioned.  This was a "Marquette Issue".

I know it was.  But Buzz should have supposedly known of his obligations.  Again, I don't know if he was trained properly.  We do annual training where I work.  Coaches have been fired for this before.

EDIT:  And if Buzz did that now, and that full story got out, he would be fired at many, many places.  Not just MU.

As would you or I. Nothing unfair or inconsistent about these federal guidelines no matter the profession.

I think if you give this team to say, Huggins, they'd be playing far better defense.

Huggins probably would not of recruited any of the players on this team.
