I don't know...assuming you a referencing the Outside the Lines article I


just don't see the "massive coverup" or "program out of control" that you seem to think was there...what I read looked more like a bit of a witchhunt quite honestly. Of course, it's entirely possible I am missing things, or maybe you are talking about other reports that I haven't seen/read/heard at all. But to me, this list of reported incidents involving football players and their resolutions doesn't look even remotely like the situations at Baylor or PSU. In the interest of not posting a novel, this is just the date and the resolution, not the details of what the incident was (though that info can be found in the article):

Aug 2009, Both player and GF declined to pursue charges.
Dec 2009, Prosecutors dropped the case after the woman declined to press charges.
Jan 2010, Court records show no charges were filed.
Aug 2013, The woman told police she only wanted him to apologize, which he did in an officer's presence, and no charges were filed.
Oct 2013, The woman told campus police that she did not want to seek criminal prosecution but did want to report the incident to Michigan State judicial services. No criminal charges were filed.
May 2014, campus police sent its report to the Ingham County prosecutor's office, which declined to file charges against any of the players, noting that the woman's writings could not be used as evidence and investigators were unable to independently corroborate her claims.

And then the article even explicity states "It's unknown whether campus police or any university administrator ever notified Dantonio about the incidents, or if they did, whether the coach ever disciplined any of the players". I just don't see anything there that says "fire the coach, massive coverups in play!!!"
