I have misplaced my pants.
Pretty much my reaction, exactly:
At first, I'm surprised that this is allowed to happen on campuses. But when we still let coaches discipline players for breaking the law, I guess stuff like this is possible.
I hope that, assuming these reports are correct (not guilty until proven innocent and all), this isn't happening outside of Michigan State. I may just be an ostrich burying my head in the sand, though.

If Title IX actually does anything here, then they'd damn well better explain their inaction with the Pedsters & the Bears.

If 2017 taught us anything it's that everyone we know is a sexual deviant.

Report: At least 16 football players have been accused of sexual assault at Michigan State under Mark Dantonio
The Larry Nassar scandal is not the only issue that Michigan State finds itself dealing with.
In a bombshell report released just after Spartans athletic director Mark Hollis resigned/retired, an ESPN Outside the Lines investigation reported on “a pattern of widespread denial, inaction and information suppression of such allegations by officials ranging from campus police to the Spartan athletic department.” This included officials going to court to withhold athletes’ names in police reports, deleting information from other reports, acting less than transparent with outside investigations and not following proper procedures in reporting sexual violence allegations.
Perhaps most damning was what was uncovered about the football program under head coach Mark Dantonio. The report says that since 2007, at least 16 football players have been accused of sexual assault or violence against women. The head coach himself was even alleged to be involved in the handling of some of these cases, including dishing out discipline.
While MSU capped off a turnaround campaign on the field in 2017 by reaching 10 wins in the Holiday Bowl, it was a turbulent offseason last year in the wake of several sexual assault investigations led to the dismissal of several players. Over a dozen players were held out of the Michigan State spring game and a staff member was even dismissed after violating school policy. An external probe into the handling of at least one sexual assault case reportedly cleared Dantonio of any wrongdoing.
The OTL report also touched on incidents involving the Spartans basketball program under Hall of Fame coach Tom Izzo, the fact that MSU is facing a Title IX lawsuit and that the school remains under investigation by the Department of Education in several matters as well.

The larger fallout from the report remains to be seen but it’s safe to say that Dantonio’s position as head coach could be in jeopardy and he might be the next big name to leave East Lansing. The NCAA has already launched an investigation into Michigan State and there are still several others from various other organizations on going. While the Nassar scandal has led to the departure of the school president and athletic director, the latest bit of damning news on how the program handled sexual assault allegations seems to firmly put the football team in the crosshairs as well.

The MSU President and AD resigned; I'll say if there are 16 sexual assult cases involving the football players it doesn't look good for Dantonio. MSU is going to have to "clean house".

Stunning. Sure, there was the bravery to step out first and bravely speak in scathing detail about her personal hell. That would be remarkable enough, yet she speaks grace to her monstrous predator. Incredible.

...down in the hills.
Maybe I don’t realize or are not aware of some collegiate chain of command requirements, but is there some reason a victim of sexual assault could not file a complaint with the NCAA? Aren’t they in charge of Title 9 that is supposed to address/correct these issues? I don’t get how these programs have this crap going on for years and then when it breaks, the NCAA is behind the power curve on everything.
