The MSU case is a lot like the PSU case in that they want to blame

everyone except the one who committed the crime. I know the Dr. got what amounts to a life term. But why is everyone guilty before the facts even come out. Rest in peace JoPa., you were wrongly accused , as were your coaches, and family.

If you are referring to Dantonio and Izzo, I think the issue for them is how they handled (or mishandled. Or didn't handle at all) reports of sexual abuse by players in their program. Not Nassar directly. It is two different things, but if all areas are broken we have lack of institutional control, my friend. It's a lot different than what happened at PSU, although I'm sure all of the morons out there will lump them together in all ways.

That's the problem I have.. it has been lumped together. ESPN went to find dirt on someone with a bigger name than Nassar and made it a Michigan State cultural issue.. we've seen this before, just a different version. Did they look at other Michigan State men's sports? Hockey? Wrestling? No mention of them, just football and basketball because they have big name coaches? We may see a measure of revenge against several assholes that judged us unfairly, but there's the real possibility of innocent people being drug through the mud by affiliation. I honestly would prefer Izzo, Dantonio and those being dragged through the mud to be clean so that the shift focuses to ESPN and their unprofessional journalistic practices. They're the ones that buried us from the start causing the public uproar and the unfair reactions that hurt the Penn State community rather than help it.

Michigan State is becoming what Penn State was falsely accused of being

I actually disagree. Nassar has gotten far far more attention than Sandusky did. Now that Nassar has been sentenced the story is going to naturally move on. The level of scrutiny on other individuals is nowhere near what is was here.

They need to start to look at the people running the institutions not the athletic coaches. If schools know about misconduct they should be expelling the students not hoping coaches voluntarily kick them off of the teams. It wasn't Art Briles' fault that Baylor turned a blind eye. You could argue that Briles brought in the wrong kind of students to the university but it isn't his fault that the school didn't act.

Umm, they were approached by a whistle blower who fingered FB and BB. That's why they did the segments in the report on FB and BB.

PSU dug the hole then gave the media the shovel.

Just made the mistake of tuning into 10 minutes of ESPN 1000 in Chicago. Silvy and Dan Dakich saying Paterno had his own little kingdom at PSU and had the trustees in his pocket. Said MSU fans are showing remorse about Nassar unlike PSU fans and that the fan reactions were "a thousand times" different. *sigh*
