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

[ChiTownLion]

Just type MSU into a Twitter search and you'll get the picture.

Also, this Kate Wells girl is doing a nice job live-tweeting the action as it unfolds.

Interesting to see MSU trying to settle with Nassar's victims for less than 1/10th of what Penn State averaged per payout.

Police walked up immediately after her time was up.

Guessing this was to silence her when her last grain of sand went through tube? Hate to give a victim of the worst abuse case one extra second, God forbid a minute. Might take the $250,000 offer lower if she talks longer.

"Don't report anything or it could be bad for you." It sounds like the university counseling center took a page out of the playbook which was used by the gymnastics coach.

That's a quote someone said another person told her. You know... a person likely seeking more money than that.

I think the media is more effective at keeping this info out of the news -- there is no big name to drive clicks in this story.

 

[interrobang]

So at Penn State, you have John Doe people taking whatever money they can get because PSU is handing it out like Thanksgiving parade candy.

At MSU, you have publicly named people saying WTF when MSU even offers settlement money.

 

[RGWhirly]

Sounds like they may be looking for an interim interim president soon.

Hmmm so how Interim is Interim? I'm guessing by the end of the day?

@LionDeNittany AP story:
A sexual assault victim of former sports doctor Larry Nassar says Michigan State University interim president John Engler offered her a secret payoff to settle a lawsuit against the university.

Eighteen-year-old Kaylee Lorincz confronted Engler during a highly charged board meeting Friday. She says Engler and his special counsel offered her $250,000 while her attorney was not present. Lorincz is among those suing the university over its handling of the Nassar case. Nassar is now serving decades in prison for molesting women and girls.

According to Lorincz, Engler said to her, “Right now if I wrote you a check for $250,000 would you take it?”

Engler didn’t immediately respond to her comments.

Engler is also facing criticism for the school’s response to a federal lawsuit against the university by a woman who says three former basketball players raped her.

What part of this is not clear? Engler. Offered. Her. 250k.

Good point. Where is Jamelle? She had no problem spouting off on Penn State.

Michigan media need to camp out on Lou Anna Simon’s front lawn until she explains how her ‘thorough reviews’ of Michigan State’s handling of the sex sbuse cases found absolutely no wrongdoing by MSU or cover up. It’s more and more ridiculous with every passing day as new information is revealed.

 

[ChiTownLion]

Wendy's right. What's taking so long, Jimbo?

Didn't Delany grant himself the authority to step in as interim president of the university for situations exactly like this?

 

[michnittlion]

John Engler was a bully when he was the Governor of Michigan. He's still a bully today.

Lousy choice for the MSU interim President to get them through this mess.

When will these people learn? Don’t let the peasants speak at BOT meetings. They are only allowed to watch - in silence!

 

[Connorpozlee]

It’s disgraceful. People in authority positions thinking they can buy everybody off. I applaud those like this woman that expose these tactics.

Kaylee Lorincz says Engler offered her $250,000 to drop her civil suit during a meeting this month.
That's the way it's done in the political arena.

Right, wrong or indifferent, I will post this.
Dantonio and Izzo both say they have no knowledge of allegations towards there respective players. Neither claim to have given their players special treatement.
The university claims to have had no knowledge of Nassar; later proved dramatically incorrect.
Other stories and incidents come to light that the university claimed no knowledge of...and, proof shows they did.
I'm sorry, but I have to think all these skeletons show me that Dantonio and Izzo are dirty. It seems as if the entire university was a "look the other way, it will go away" mentality.
If I am over stepping the boundaries, I'll apologize now.

Shame. That money could have been used in such good ways. Like bribing 18 year old victims of their own University's many sex scandals.

 

[stf110]

Engler continued to get embarrassed at the meeting, as he later proposed a 2.97 percent tuition increase, shortly after “teasing” a large increase to cover legal fees from the Nassar case. This too was met with outrage.

“What a vile man you are,” student Dan Martel, a member of the grass-roots Reclaim MSU movement, said. “To direct the anger cast by students for higher tuition rates on survivors of the worst sexual assault scandal in MSU history.”


This was twards the end of the Deadspin article, talk about foot-in-mouth.

Someone needs to get in contact with Barry Levinson right away. He should be informed I have the next movie idea for him called "Simon, Klages and MSU BOTs". Best part is it can actually be non-fiction and still 1000 times more entertaining then his last piece of crap!

 

[MtNittany]

Surprised Engler didn't offer Kaylee Lorincz a partial scholarship w/ a "student manager" position w/ the basketball team.
