Dumpster fire continues to burn at MSU [Update: MasterCard pulls $45 million sponsorship]

His lawyer was there. PROHIBITED.
It’s really proving to have been a smart decision, isn’t it?
Some of them were in the room when Nasser was fingering their daughter.
So Engler and troops met with them to dip their foot in the water by asking them if $250,000 would be enough to settle with victims given the current litigation and their first hand experiences. No denial in the statement. More like we didn't offer $250,000 but were wondering if that amount would be reasonable. Geez. That doesn't look bad at all.
These guys could use a little positive encouragement, so...
I'd buy that, but Frazier is no amateur - he brutalized Vioxx victims and saved Merck billions. We know Surma's brother was out to get Joe. Erickson acted publicly like he was saving us from the death penalty with the consent decree, while behind closed doors he was practically telling the NCAA how to punish us when he had signed off on Sandusky's emeritus status giving him access to University Facilities (granted that may have come from above). For a career academic he was surprisingly duplicitous and power hungry. Peetz and Baldwin may be incompetent, but Baldwin is also dishonest and should have been disbarred for making Spanier, Schultz and Curley think she was representing them in front of the grand jury while she was representing Penn State.
Proof-positive that the reach and scope of this board travels deep and far.
Exhibit A: Manly's quote was pretty much copied and pasted from the OP here from 3 hours earlier.

Any chance Dan Bernstein has weighed in yet, with his learned and provocative thoughts?
Lubert - "Why do you think you deserve money? Oh wait, don't tell me, it's not important, here you go."
Also missing are remarks from our favorite woman-man. And not a single tweet from her eunuch husband?
I wonder if Newsome thought that the incident involving his fellow offensive lineman was also "sad"?

This board has been an embarrassment over the past few weeks. Look, everyone hates trial by media, everyone hates unsubstantiated claims, everyone hates rushing to judgment. Everyone hates that the decisions of very few people have put this proud university in a very bad spot.
But guys even in a light taken most favorable to MSU, the university clearly has major problems and continues to make them worse at every mind-numbing turn. We've drifted past the point of MSU having much, if any, benefit of the doubt. There's just too much smoke. And just when shit can't seem to get any worse, it does. That's where we're at.
Does it mean MSU needs to be shut down? No. Does it mean everyone attached to MSU is bad? No. Does it mean MSU will never recover? No.
But PLEASE....Stop defending stupid fvcking decisions. Stop the hostility towards victims. Stop the bullshit justifications. Stop.
We are better than this.

Also for those comparing this to Penn State I am really getting tired of that as well.
Penn State had a guy on their football staff who multiple people (parents/coaches etc) physically saw committing horrible acts on a child or at the very least doing very suspicious things with children (showering, "horseplay" etc)
Penn State's football coach, president, and athletic director all actively worked together to cover-up what was going on at the university.
Nassar was a DOCTOR, not a football coach. He was considered to be one of the best at what he did in the country by a lot of people. Its a lot harder to call a doctor out who is doing procedures than it is to deal with a situation like Sandusky. I think by the time MSU realized exactly what was going on it was way way too late.
Not to say they haven't royally ****ed this up in how they have handled it, but I spent five years in East Lansing and I'm sorry I don't believe it is this bastion of evil that everyone is now making it out to be. Horrible mistakes were made but I think it was a lot harder to prevent the Nassar situation than it was Sandusky. If that makes me a bad guy I guess I'll have to own it
That poor, stupid, deluded sonofabitch actually believes it, too. I wonder what he would say about the notion that all his facts are wrong, and they covered up Nassar KNOWING FULL WELL about Jerry?
Everybody's going to get their time in the box, Sparty. This is yours.
Well he spelled "Penn State" correctly at least.
Parents watched their daughters get molested by Nassar
it is amazing the contortions he goes through to try and deflect SOME amount of the crap pile hitting MSU right now
Sadly, this type of tribalism undermines what we now know about Nice Guy Predators . . .
I'm still aggravated that nobody, absolutely nobody, in our administration ever corrects the record. For some reason they are perfectly satisfied that many people out there believe this drivel, and they don't care one bit.

I actually totally agree. I think there was an active cover-up at PSU that involved many higher ups, and I don't really think anyone at MSU (maybe outside of Strampel) covered anything up. I think the PSU situation is much, much worse than what's gone down at MSU, which at its core involves substantial and pervasive incompetence compounded by horrible, horrible strategic responses. But to hear some people on here bend over backwards to continue to defend these things is baffling. That's the comparison.

you really don't understand why? look at the outrage over Engler; that is why no one at PSU speaks out
That's a whole lot of stupid. It sounds like something you'd see posted by one of the morons on the Pitt board. My guess is they know it isn't true but they post it anyway with hopes it'll gain traction. Astroturfing at its worst.
they 100% believe what they say to be true, don't doubt that
The outrage over Engler is that he is being a brutal DICK to innocent victims. Nobody is calling for our people to do that.
