James gets a new contract recently and all of a sudden this suit against him appears. Talk about timing! The kid has been gone since 2018.
Franklin, PSU players accused of hazing

Trial by Judge- you convince a someone trained to decide on facts not emotion, with the additional negative of being an expert in law making it doubly difficult to frame law with fallacies of logic. Trial by jury easier to evoke emotion, victim- hood, and false logic into the equation.
Not a lawyer, but I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night....
And all the stories ended up being nothing...definitely a witch hunt where PSU is involved.
And this is the continuing fall out from the BOT and administration’s decision to roll over and think that problems go away by paying people who make unsubstantiated claims. The “gift” that keeps giving.
I've not heard of ANYBODY coming forward to corroborate these claims. You think if it were true, somebody would step up. Need to line up 200 players, current and former, to testify in court that Humphries is full of shit.

spoiler: anyone with one post is not “coming out of the woodwork.” It’s a new troll account of its someone from another team’s board posting here for the first time
Ben Jones is ducking idiot for even having to qualify that statement. This is all a crock and shouldn’t be believed for a second
saw you referred to as HBurg Dave Jones, interesting

I’m very interested in understanding why the attorney, Steve Marino, a PSU Alum and member of the men’s gymnastics team from 80-83, has such a vendetta against the football team. There has to be more to the story and why he continues to bring these cases forward.
$$$$$$$
not everyone has a loyalty to their college, especially when it hands out blank checks
Clearly trying to draw a connection to the sandusky matter by referring to his client as a "boy" repeatedly and talking about how this happened to other "boys" in the facility. Name them you smarmy piece of sh*T

Maybe this is why a few times this season CJF seemed a bit despondent? This kind of BS has got to get old. Why does it happen? Because the OGBOT enabled this kind of behavior where any loon or crooked lawyer flips the University upside down like a piggy bank. And the University’s name (and all associated with it) gets dragged thru the mud. Kudos to CJF for sticking with us. But if he said “ enough” and left - who could blame him. Just pathetic!
Ok boss. You having your secretary pull the contract in the morning?
I think I may have a clue about this guy.. I took a course called something like " Sports Psychology" circa 81,82 we were mostly student athletes, it was a small, maybe 20 person class. Massimo Manca (sp?) was in this class, the only name I remember, he was a really unique, great guy. There were 2 gymnastics guys, one was very outspoken and bitter about why the Football Team got "all the funding and attention". I also remember we were in the gymnastics room for one class. I got on the rings for the first time and they were surprised that I could do an "L seat" and an "Iron Cross" I said, "that's why they get the attention and why we get funding."
There just better be no legitimacy to this or the media who already hate PSU will latch on to it with glee and a witch hunt will ensue. Hopefully this just fades away.
Alex Cora just got canned, so thatll be all of thr talk . This is bs and already off front page at espn
I don't think he has a vendetta. I just think he sees how easily PSU hands over money, thanks to the BOT
History has proven that the media will latch on to things whether they are true or not. Penn State fans shouldn’t be snowflakes and disparage our coach over horseshit items planted in the media by an ambulance chasing personal injury lawyer with a history of going after PSU.
My thoughts.
If this is true, and CJF had knowledge of it, then I’m done with this school. Shut the program down and end it. It would be an embarrassment beyond anything when you couple the Sandusky scandal with it.
That being said, I don’t believe for 1 second this happened. So......
If the administration, BOT, athletic director, and president don’t immediately go completely scorched earth in fighting and denying these rumors, I’m done with this school. I’m tired of being associated with a university that continually allows the media and every Tom, Dick, and Harry to kick them square in the nuts over and over again without ever doing anything about it.
Stand up and fight for yourself PSU!!!! WTF is wrong with you people representing our once proud university?

I’m not sure why people would even suggest it’s true. It was already investigated by the oversight group at PSU and the police and was dismissed
And the internal group is the group most likely to go batshit crazy with deeming people guilty with harsh punishments, yet they didn't (other than Barber, and since he wasn't suspended for a semester or expelled, his punishment, if any, was minor)
