OT: MSU/Nassar

news coming out of EL just keeps getting worse and worse.

when does basketball season start?
 
didn't take very long for more bad news to come out of EL: senior DL Demetrius Cooper was just accused of violating probation. Last year he spit at a cop during a traffic stop.

Hearing scheduled for May 11th.

when "no drugs or alcohol" were made a condition of his probation, his attorney should have objected...

He'll be suspended for the first 12 seconds of their first fall practice. Tough love.

if there's one word I could use to describe the attitude of all the MSU alums I knew back in the day, it would be discipline. through high school and college I never saw a more disciplined group.

visit that campus anytime, including nights and weekends. it's buttoned up tighter than a... you know what! Everybody hard at work, studying, writing papers, conducting research. and Coach D and the football program mirror that sense of discipline on and off the field.

Dantonio is a Tressel disciple. That's all anyone needs to know about him.

yeah. it's becoming clear there's not as much depth to him as people thought.

I'm of the opinion he's been packing his staff with Tressel-era washouts and has-beens not because he thinks they can do the job, but because he never made personal connections outside that circle. his only good hire was Narduzzi, and it's increasingly looking like he just lucked out with that one. he can't break out of this rut and bring in better young talent because he doesn't know any.

and his personality doesn't help. I know the gruff, grumpy coach stuff played well with the dumbasses in the MSU fanbase, but outside of that not so much. Remember how he bullied Jeff Hecklinski at that one HS coaches event? Pushing around a younger, junior coach like that just made him look like a bully... and who wants to work for a bully?
 
Another post about MSU? You guys are obsessed!!!!!!!!!
 
Looks like MSU had Jerry Sandusky 2.0 on campus.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. -- Larry Nassar, the former USA Gymnastics doctor who stands accused of sexually abusing more than 100 of his female patients, has agreed to plead guilty to federal child pornography charges, the latest development in his sprawling legal case.

The agreement, first reported by The Detroit News, relates only to the federal child pornography charges filed in December against Nassar. He has agreed to plead guilty to receiving child pornography, possession of child pornography and charges relating to his attempt to destroy and conceal evidence in the case.

According to the terms of the plea deal, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Western District of Michigan has agreed not to prosecute Nassar for the arguably more serious charge of sexually exploiting children, including children he allegedly molested at his home, in his swimming pool and, the agreement states, during "interstate/international travel."
 
with Nasser pleasing guilty maybe the bad headlines out of East Lansing will go away for a while.

It's still not clear if the football gods are done punishing MSU fans or not.

An FBI special agent testified that Nassar's hard drives contained approximately 37,000 images and videos of child pornography, with images of girls as young as 6 or 7 years of age engaging in sex acts.

Sentencing guidelines range from five to 20 years for each count Nassar faces.

That means Nassar could receive a five-year prison sentence if the court determines he should receive the minimum sentences, running concurrently, and that Nassar could receive up to a 60-year sentence if the court gives him the maximum 20-year sentence, running consecutively.

He deserves a bullet. Maybe he'll get shanked in prison. He's earned it.
 
It'll be a federal joint. Prisons are a lot softer on these guys nowadays. There are literally thousands of child molesters in prisons now.
 
And he hasn't yet been sentenced for the assaults yet on gymnasts

I tend to think he won't make it for long in jail
 
He should have been taken out back and shot right after the gavel dropped. He doesn't deserve the opportunity to have one more moment of happiness on this earth.

not sure how the parole rules work in Michigan, but given that the judge structured his sentences to run consecutively, he'll likely be in prison for the rest of his natural life. I doubt he'll have any moments of happiness there, so his suffering will be prolonged.

People can find happiness even in jail. It can be something as simple as going outside and seeing the sun shine or reading a book.

He doesn't deserve a chance at the smallest amount of happiness.
