A month later, when the university hadn’t complied, Mr. Johnson showed he was a man of his word. He essentially declared war against his own alma mater and launched a barrage of public-records requests. He has filed more than 75 such requests since January. The thousands of pages of records he obtained reveal numerous unflattering details about the University of Florida, including pornography purchases by a top administrator and improper spending on a new presidential house.

A 2015 investigation by ESPN found that 80 athletes at the university had been named as suspects over a five-year period, accounting for more than 100 crimes

Email records show that Loschiavo had used his university email address to receive receipts for X-rated DVDs such as Wild Wet T.Com 13 Dream Girls Gone Wild 18+ and Deep Sleep Threesome Sleeping Sex.

I hope this doesn't turn into a flame thread because I believe this kind of thing goes on at every university. My problem is that all of this coming to light is all about "I gotcha" and not an actual attempt to improve situations. We will find dirt on individuals and use it to condemn but never is assitance offered to help improve situations.

That is fascinating. The whole article is very good. I hope people take the time to read it. Amazing the kind of information that's out there.

"Unfortunately," Mr. Johnson says, "this is not a two-legged animal. The answer to your question is yes."

So a two part response to this thing...
1) College athletes commit crimes and the universities bend over backwards to cover it up. Water is wet.
2) The lawyer didn't get paid and now he wants his money and will blackmail the university into paying him. Water is wet.
What about this didn't people already know? When we get to the meat of the article, Calloway having his hearing presided over by a former UF athlete and having the deck stacked heavily in his favor, all of a sudden we're getting quotes from a different attorney. Nothing said about that from Ol Huntley. In fact, this guy argues that kicking Calloway out of his dorm room and making him take online classes was "unfair".
