And now FSU is holding a disciplinary hearing for Winston. Like they're surprised to learn the AD swept it under the rug?

Did the NY Times just ignore everything before November 4, 2012 ; in addition, ignore all the cases that didn't fit their narrative?

Not kidding, this shite is about to blow up.

The first time around I gave him the benefit of the doubt and figured the girl was full of shite.

Not anymore. FSU worked very hard to destroy her case and were able to do it.

It is about to blow up in their face in a huge way IMO.

Need to put a post season ban on FSU. Or the death penalty. Either/or.

not addressing any of the incidents you quoted, odds are you're a Noles fan.

Dude, this and the FOX Report go way, way beyond Winston-- the cover up was some Penn State level stuff, if true its not a "Winston is gone" issue anymore its a "FSU is stripped of 10-20 schollies a year" type of deal, maybe even worse if the Feds buy in as this would be case that would let them make statement about Rape on campus.

You know why Penn State agreed to all the NCAA's penalties even though none of them involved a single player? Because fighting would have made them look like they weren't showing remorse and if they were fighting the Feds might have pulled the no-financial aid card.
