The administration, from the President on down, and the athletic department were clearly a huge problem. It's a shame that ESPN's desperate need for viewers and clicks has led them to distract from that real, serious issue.

ESPN definitely jumps all over these types of incidents, especially if there are multiple. It’s is a very foggy topic on how these incidents are handled and investigated. And most info is after the fact.
The one incident where a female student was haunted by the ordeal she went through while in school at MSU, and documented it in her diary. She OD and died. She was prescribed the meds due to PTSD and depression from several sexual assaults involving football players which caused her to drop out and move in with her parents. Well they found her diary and wanted answers from MSU and the authorities there.
This was on the news recently, I can’t find the article tho. Sad story.
