In fairness, it was not wise to completely sit on this. It's one thing to wait a few days. The cops would probably prefer it. But once the accused had lawyers and were arraigned, you're not affecting the investigation by making a statement.

The idea that the school was trying to cover up something that was going to come up in the preliminary hearing is nonsensical. At the same time, the school had to know that this would be the huge news out of the prelim. Why wait to let it come out in this manner?

Yeap this is where they really screwed up. If they would have suspended him while investigating, the school could've taken the high road. Now this is going to get very ugly very quick because they set on it. This is recking of a scandal now, Oat's better pray the AD gave him his blessing. If not he's gone.
