oh go ahead and get all scientific with me... and don't be doing any of that jedi mind trick logic thing here neither! lmaoCorrect me if I'm wrong (I'm no biologist), but doesn't the future of our species sort of depend on us living in a heterosexual society?
I guess my point is that after the OAG/Patriot News net was cast (basically to anyone that could spell Penn State) that it seems odd that no prominent local business leader or some such would have come forward.Quite simply, I don't understand your point MtNittany.
All Lou Anna Simon and others had to do was make a simple telephone call and report Nassar. None did. That's what I'd call pretty pervasive.The entire leadership of the state Legislature has now called for Michigan State University President Lou Anna Simon to resign or be removed in the wake of the Larry Nassar scandal.
Senate Majority Leader Arlan Meekhof and Senate Minority Leader Jim Ananich joined state House Minority Leader Sam Singh and Senator Curtis Hertel Jr., both of Lansing, in calling for Simon's resignation Thursday. House Speaker Tom Leonard had earlier called for Simon's dismissal.
This follows a Detroit News report that 14 Michigan State officials, including Simon, were aware of the accusations against Nassar as early as 2014, only to clear the sports doctor after a Title IX investigation.
In a joint statement, the Senate leaders said, “In light of recent news, it is clear that the Michigan State University Board of Trustees should act swiftly to remove President Simon from her position at MSU. The Senate has lost confidence in President Simon’s ability to lead one of our state’s finest universities. The MSU community deserves better from its leadership.”

The NCAA will hammer Central Michigan and take 3 scholarships away from the women's gymnastics team.Not so fast. The media outrage which I’m reading today is pretty devastating. It also states that MSU is contesting lawsuits from at least 130 victims. So there are three major differences I see. One that there was no big name (Paterno) at MSU to associate with these crimes, second, that they (MSU) are contesting the lawsuits rather than agreeing on culpability, although itn some cases it sounds as if that was only after failed arbitration. Third, many may view this as a crime but not one which is in MSU’s court, since Nassar was involved in several athletic organizations outside of the MSU/NCAA umbrella. But he was a faculty member at MSU while this went on, which is worse than the Sandusky situation.
By the time this is over, MSU may be much worse than PSU with regards to payouts - several hundred million easily. And I can also imagine a federal investigation will occur regarding why Nassar was not reported by MSU, and his actions stopped after the athletes complained of abuse. Simon and others are on very weak ground here. Whether the NCAA gets involved or whether the Big10 does anything is another matter. Frankly I don’t think they know what to do. At most they will look for a way to cover their own asses. And institutional control is an issue to address, but how? They aren’t going to bring sanctions against the gymnastics team! I can imagine however some sort of hefty fines being imposed against the university as a result.
Sure, follow the OGBOT model that conveyed upon Dickless Rodney Erickson a huge raise and his name on a building.In the meantime they'll just continue to give her massive raises.

Nothing is going to happen here along the lines of PSU. There is no big media outrage, nor coverage. It's not being blasted 24/7, even as he stands trial.
I guess this is the difference between a school like MSU and us. We are bigger, more well known and more relevant. And we suffered for it.

Michigan State board of trustees hold meeting following calls for president to resign
10:50 AM ET
- Dan MurphyESPN Staff Writer
EAST LANSING, Mich. -- Michigan State's board of trustees is meeting Friday morning to "discuss matters related to the Nassar investigation," a university spokesman said.
The meeting comes in the wake of calls for university president Lou Anna Simon to step down, as she has been widely criticized this week for both her and the school's response to former Michigan State doctor Larry Nassar's serial sexual abuse. Calls for her ouster grew louder this week during a sentencing hearing in Lansing for Nassar's crimes.
And any other administrators that told victims to keep quiet.Fire her? She actually does belong in jail.
Agreed! I remember when the shitstorm hit that I was desperately hoping for Charlie Sheen to show up on TMZ's website with a picture of a smoldering van under a circus big top and CS being dragged out by two trannie hookers; all 3 of them wearing nothing but a condom (or something to that effect).As far as perhaps media goes I agree but we are also in a media/controversy overload right now from everything that includes Trump..to the me too movement...to MSU.
I personally think...the biggest difference...may have been...there was really not a lot happening in terms of competing "sensational" stories at the time Sandusky's crimes cam e to light.
Yes...the endif picked up on a central figure in Joe Paterno...but again...what else was really happening at the time?
So IMO...this is not necessarily Apples to Apples...where the story will REALLY come to light at MSU...is when we see more resignations at the top...indictments coming down...or a sense of what this may cost MSU...Olympic Gymnastics etc.
I think this story is just still building...and the fact that there have been links to suicides...death...whoa Nellie...
As much as Delaney and Emmert have been so resistant to say anything...they eventually will have to say something...they are getting backed into a corner...obviously they are waiting till everything becomes even more clear...they did not do that with PSU...they and everyone else rushed to immediate judgement.
When you again look at how long the actually indictment came down with Sandusky..to the actual start and finish of the trial...its even more incredible that the case was rushed through so quickly.
Simon is going down..though I'm curious...why Mark Hollis's name has not been brought up..at all...Nassar was part of or employed by the MSU "Athletic Department"...yes?
Jeeeze Bob..man up....it's not like I'm asking you toPlease don’t ever say “strip” in connection with lou anna simon.
