ESPN story on Mark Emmett’s e-mail to NCAA Board of Governors. Summed up, Emmert was informed of at least 37 cases at MSU in 2010, in writing and in person, but others were also informed, so he had no responsibility to act. Interesting perspective. http://es.pn/2njU8U2

I recall that this line of reasoning about ONE SINGLE INCIDENT by Joe Paterno wasn't acceptable.

People, we should be marching with pitchforks and torches on the NCAA office. Our BOT, should be making official press releases on how it is time to stop demonizing tangential people and focus on making real progress with Joe Paterno being the #1 case in point.

Michigan AG should be filling papers to extradite marky Mark for failure to report.

Is his wiki page still closed off to changes?

No wonder Emmert didn't want to get involved in the MSU mess.

Did MSU notify the police when they were told about a sex assault involving an assistant bball coach, two recruits and a MSU student?

Were the recruits even legal age?

Mark Emmert when he returns home from the office.

Pretty amazing that everyone now is saying 'hit the brakes' when in 2011, they were all like 'full speed ahead' with accusing coaches of not doing more. His comment about gymnastics coaches and trainers not being 'qualified' to handle something like that is asinine. How qualified do you need to be to pick up the phone and call police?

They are saying hit the brakes, because there's been some pushback. We provided no pushback. We bent over, grabbed our ankles, liberally smeared grease on our assholes, and invited the world to have at it. We had our president on a national apology tour. We asked to be shit on, to be trampled, to be whipped by the nation. And they did.

Nobody reacts like our BOT did. Nobody. It was akin to concentration camp inmates demanding to be taken to the gas chambers.

 

[We Are . . .]

"Emmert's email to the board also laid out numerous steps the NCAA has taken to address sexual violence in recent years, including the2014 publication of the Handbook on Addressing Sexual Assault and Interpersonal Violence."

Gee, I think that's the NCAA handbook that recommends a process for handling sexual misconduct that was followed by a certain football coach whose reputation was dragged through the mud by Emmert and his fellow hypocritical blowhards.

HaHa, he said pushback. At PSU there was a leadership vacuum for a few days, to be kind. It was more like a black hole, with the gravity ($$$) sucking everything in at light speed.

Emmert looks like a 70 year old 14 year old. Every time I see a picture of him it freaks me out. He looks almost exactly like one of those freaky ventriloquist puppets.

So when Paterno Emmert saw that this guy who wasn't an employee of his organization was still not in jail days/months/years later, why didn't he personally pick up the phone and call the police?

Of course, only Joe was wrong. Forget the facts of that Lasch incident and forget every other situation. Only Joe was wrong.

Scott Paterno tweeting he is hearing rumors that Emmert will be gone by days end.
Couldn't happen to a better guy. Karma is a bitch and coming back for them all one by one

That and as the evidence from the PSU lawsuit confirms Emmert and the NCAA saw grandstanding and going outside NCAA rules to punish PSU would be a golden opportunity to make the NCAA relevant and "tough" at a time when it was being viewed as powerless. Emmert is a special kind of hypocrite. Maybe if Emmert and Simon were more concerned about investigating claims about Nassar and athletes at MSU instead of piling on about PSU, there would have been less victims at Sparty.
How ironic that Paterno reported to his boss whatever an assistant coach told him he saw Sandusky (a former coach given permission to bring TSM kids on campus after his retirement in 1999 by the administration not Paterno) do in a shower in 2001 and stated, when Sandusky was arrested in 2011, that the focus should be on the victims and wished, with the benefit of hindsight, wished he had done more. Contrast that with Simon and the others who had far more notice about Nassar and other athletes at MSU from actual victims and who deny everything and accept responsibility for nothing.

So OTL taped their piece back in AUGUST.

Sat on it.

Then aired it to capitalize on the Nassar outrage.

Why am I not surprised

I believe on page 8 it states the Head Coach should tell the accused player that he must tell his mom...after that all is ok...
