I would suggest we s***-can the contrived controversy over the kid's back injury. There would be zero incentive for him to fake it and even less incentive to not follow medical advice on letting it heal. Agreed. We have a head coach in place now, and I am certain he is well aware of the status.

I think it's time to archive this thread and let it be done.

Three hours have gone by, and no one has commented about this. We now know for sure what allegedly happened, and to whom. Do we not care any more? Is this matter put to rest never to be spoken about again? I doubt it. Now that the woman has hired a lawyer, it would appear that we are just getting started on the second phase of this mess. Unless they come to an out of court settlement, it's going to go to court, and then it will be the story for some time to come.

It looks like she is remaining anonymous right now to me. This “mess” is only because of one person, so I hope we all remain supportive and stay classy unlike some of the recent Facebook posts I’ve seen. It’s no wonder that most victims don’t come forward. People are cruel.

Was it consensual or rape? If she agreed to it then that's on her. UE did what they thought was the right thing to do and the female needs to pick herself up and move on. Take it up with McCarty.

Does UE have any legal action against McCarty when all this blows up?

According to the first paragraph of the article UE may have some legal exposure on this, but I hope not:
A female student who reported she was sexually assaulted by former University of Evansville men’s basketball coach Walter McCarty has hired a national law firm to "investigate and represent her in a potential action against the coach and the university," according to a statement sent to the Courier & Press.

The lawyer hired is Michelle Tuegel who was instrumental in the $500 million dollar settlement with Michigan State due to the Larry Nassar sexual assaults on hundreds of women. That settlement was, in part, quite large due to Michigan State ignoring the situation with Nassar.
Hopefully UE followed correct procedures and due process (w/proper documentation) or they could be looking at potentially large dollar lawsuits.

The total endowment of the University of Evansville as of the end of FY 2017 was just under $128 million. A substantial court award would bankrupt the university and potentially lead to its closing.
I don’t know what happened but now it’s becoming a money game. If an assault occurred it should be handled by the law enforcement authorities and the courts. Too many people are seeing $$$ for everything that happens in this country.

Was there a police report ever filed anywhere? If a crime is committed don't you contact the police at some point? Is Walter free right now? I don't understand.
