Mel Tucker denies harassment claims, calls MSU hearing 'ridiculously flawed'​

Suspended Michigan State coach Mel Tucker adamantly denied claims that he sexually harassed noted sexual assault awareness speaker Brenda Tracy in a statement Monday and called an upcoming hearing about the claims "a sham."

Tucker, in a statement issued Monday through his attorney Jennifer Belveal, said he developed an "intimate, adult relationship" with Tracy and that her claims that he harassed her are "completely false." He said an upcoming hearing to assess whether he violated university policy is "ridiculously flawed and not designed to arrive at the truth."

"While I am saddened by Ms. Tracy's disclosure of the sensitive nature of this call, let me be perfectly clear -- it was an entirely mutual, private event between two adults living at the opposite ends of the country," Tucker's statement reads. "She initiated the discussion that night, sent me a provocative picture of the two of us together, suggested what she may look like without clothes, and never once during the 36 minutes did she object in any manner, much less hang up the phone."

"I can only conclude that there is an ulterior motive designed to terminate my contract based on some other factor, such as a desire to avoid any Nasser taint, or my race or gender," Tucker, who is Black, said in the statement.

What a shit show

What a shit show

If he has said provocative photo she sent and/or they can tell she didn’t hang up for over 36 minutes or whatever….you’d think his lawyers will have a field day.

 

[BB73]

That ain't an $80MM piece of ass folks.

What a moron.

He didnt even get the ass. All he got was a mental picture while he yanked his crank on the phone.

That might be worth $1.99.

You’re using 1980 phone sex prices man.

 

[BB73]

You’re using 1980 phone sex prices man.

Sorry, I think that was the last time I had phone sex.

Yeah there’s definitely more to this story than Tucker flogging it on the phone.

You missed out on the simple pleasures of cordless phones then

 

[Tomateaux Quinoa Gumbeaux]

The whole thing just doesn’t make sense based on the information presently at hand.

 

[Thump]

The whole thing just doesn’t make sense based on the information presently at hand.

Valenti implied that there is more to his personal life than what has been released.

Makes sense. The story on the surface makes no sense and is very strange. It will likely get stranger as more info is revealed however.

 

[Jaxbuck]

Valenti implied that there is more to his personal life than what has been released.

Good lord. I really didn’t think there was too much left to know about his personal life at this point.

I’m buying popcorn stock tomorrow.

 

[knuckifyoubuck]

When I first heard they were investigating him this was my gut reaction because it confirms my bias it must therefore be true.

Yea i think banking on that Title IX stuff will end bad for Sparty.
Not that i care. Freeze got nothing for making calls to an escort. The second Mel describes this as a sugar relationship... it's prostitution... moral turpitude achieved... cya.
