Re: ESPN CFB Front Page

So, UNI football players commit violence against women more than the general population? Is that true or just a statement made by a lawyer looking to make his case?

Re: ESPN CFB Front Page

its just an odd article overall. i am not sure what the point was. it seems to me to be an attempt to portray UNI is negative light when it also seems to me like the attorneys are doing what any attorney would do when their client gets sued.

I would say it's just the lawyer trying to make his case. If if were just some random student I don't think they would try to come back on UNI, but since the football player represent the school they felt the need to take action on the school.

sounds more like the victim feels she was treated unfairly by the school after the incident, which is what is prompting the civil case. Not just b/c it was football players involved.

Re: ESPN CFB Front Page

yeah i dont think the suit has anything to do with the athletic dept at this point.

This. Seems pretty clear if you read the story.

...a former student who ...is now accusing the school in a civil lawsuit of mistreating her and mismanaging its athletics department, court records show.

The lawsuit seeks ...an order requiring the school to ...rein in what her attorneys call a culture where football recruits are more likely to show violence toward women.

These are not just allegations of mishandling after an assault. Sounds like they are indicating there is some sort of systemic problem with UNI / the athletic department as a whole that led to the assault.
