What was Mel thinking? I don't get it...
And once again McMurphy fu@ks up.
This could have all been avoided…for $1.99 a minute.
Tucker was always good at working the "portal"...
All I can think of about this situation .....is that if Tuck knew when to say "be right back" during his phone calls ......his career situation would be far more stable.
Why would one continue with the phone call if the person on the other end of the call was doing something offensive? Was ending the call not possible?
Mel admitted that he was chocking his chicken without the woman's consent. What if she had said it was ok? Would he still have gotten suspended???A minute?
How can MSU have a football coach that has admitted that he is not "Master of his Domain!"
McMurphy is still a fu@king moron. It's not just a "formality." MSU is getting its ducks in line for the inevitable lawsuit that will follow when it fires Tucker for cause.
A minute?
Flat rate, they charge you a full minute even if you take less
It did happen a year ago. Why is he being suspended today? The university knew about the accusations and the investigation. The only thing that has changed is now the public knows.
I am wondering too, that if it's a phone call how does she know what he is doing on the other end of the phone?
Well there’s Zoom for one. Also unless his defense is that he’s a pathological liar, I believe that he admitted it.
So what several of my friends are now concerned about is, hypothetically in HS 43 years ago, if they thought about a girl in their class while auto-gratifying to the mental image of said classmate without her consent, whether they are subject to a criminal charge. Anybody have any words of wisdom I can share with THEM?
I have a hard time accepting this. The investigation didn't get completed after Saturday's game. Suddenly, he gets suspended on Sunday, which just happens to be when the news broke to the public.
Clearly you’ve never been on the phone with someone who’s playing five on one.
That's not quite correct. MSU's investigation was completed in July. The next step was to be a hearing, scheduled for October.
Apparently USA Today got hold of information and published it, which I'm guessing gave rise to MSU's actions.
So if this doesn‘t go public, tucker doesn’t get suspended? Shouldn’t they have suspended him anyway? He admitted to tugging while on the phone. Egad.
Good questions. My guess is that without it going public he wouldn't have been suspended,
At what point should he have been suspended? Complaint was received in December 2022. Report was completed in July and contained no conclusion (which is standard at MSU and maybe for Title IX investigations in general)..
Maybe this has been discussed, but help me with this …

My phone has a button I push if/when I want to end a conversation.
I’m not making light of the incident, just find it strange.

Tucker has a $77 million buyout?
Hope they wrote in a good morality clause in that contract, and have good lawyers.

Agreed. Something smells fishy here (pun intended). It almost sounds like she was a honey trap for MSU to fire Tucker. No way that someone with her background would have let this go on to the point that it did.Maybe this has been discussed, but help me with this …

Being cynical: depends, right? If he wins the national championship, then they suspend him and investigate. If he starts losing during the season, suspend and investigate. As long as as he kept winning during the season, they weren't going to do anything is my take. This is modern athletics.
