re: Schiano should take legal action

quote:

---

Neither the NCAA nor any law enforcement authority pursued any investigation into Schiano because the connection was so attentuated. No conviction and no finding of any wrongdoing.

That trial was about Sandusky. I seriously doubt Schiano wants to go to court and be deposed by UT’s lawyers and have to go on record as to his involvement.

Maybe he shouldn't let grown men molest little kids. It's his own fault.

And you have proof that he knew about this?

WestCoastAg that is a completely irresponsible comment to make. Barely a shred of hearsay evidence exists that Schiano had any knowledge of what was happening at Penn St. McQueary said Bradley told him that a coach presumed to be Schiano witnessed something, and both Bradley and Schiano deny that allegation. Based on that only, people assume that he was a part of the Penn St. scandal. Neither the NCAA nor any law enforcement authority pursued any investigation into Schiano because the connection was so attentuated. No conviction and no finding of any wrongdoing. That’s called a witch hunt and not the American way.

This. The only guy who has read up on Schiano's involvement or non-involvement in the matter.

The rest is just crazy talk.

Those are the things you should consider when you cover-up child rape.

UT fans are using some iffy Sandusky allegations (allegations that were dismissed in court) as an excuse to depose of a coach because he isn't named Jon Gruden.

some politicians trying to score political points jumped onto Twitter and dug the issue even deeper.

this might have been the most investigated case of county/state/federal/NCAA levels of the decade and GS was never once questioned for his role or brought in a complaint civilly or legally.

those are the facts and im not sure why they make people so uncomfortable to stand up against. you present actual evidence to people and theyll go to great lengths to still argue against something that is proven incorrect. its fascinating.

Ashley Judd has threatened to sue entire fan bases before, Schiano should contact her for advice.

Butch Jones had a more credible rape case just last year - LINK

i do not remember any protests then?

Seems like a bunch of Message Board Machiavellis got their way. Not sure if I should be impressed or disgusted. In some ways, this is emblematic of how fricked up college football has gotten.

Hmmmmm

Putting aside all the he said,he said about who saw and reported/didn't report what, Sandusky was molesting young boys, CHILDREN, in Penn St's showers.

You say college football has gotten fricked up. Really?
Is it more fricked up with or without Sandusky?

Do you really believe that only one person, McQueary, ever saw anything out of the ordinary?

It was an MOU, not a contract.

"But if Schiano and Tennessee can’t work out an agreement and if Schiano wants to explore a potential legal case, he and his attorneys would likely focus on a claim for breach of contract. He would argue that his MOU became legally binding once signed by both sides. He would demand liquidated damages as stipulated in the MOU. The damages could be considerable—many millions of dollars, perhaps—depending on the language in the MOU. Schiano would argue his firing is without cause since university officials, sensitive to fan reaction, appear to have gotten cold feet at the altar. As discussed above, he would note that his circumstances do not warrant a “for cause” firing."

"Schiano could consider other claims in hopes of obtaining higher value damages. For instance, he could argue that the university has unlawfully interfered with his potential contractual relations with other schools for head coaching positions. To that end, Schiano could insist that by backing out at the last second and reportedly for reasons related to Schiano’s possible ties to the Penn State scandal, the university has irreparably damaged Schiano’s brand and reputation. He could maintain that Tennessee has implicitly endorsed McQueary’s accusation against Schiano even though Schiano categorically rejects it."
