We don't know what happened.

We don't know what information the school has.

We don't know anything about forensics or other evidence.

We know that some female made a criminal complaint.

Everything else in this thread has been pure speculation and a waste of time for anyone who made the mistake to read it all. I didn't.

I wasn't speculating. I was flatly saying that since no conviction has been rendered, he should face no penalties. I know it has the potential to look very bad if they let him play and he's convicted, but why should school "justice" be any different than established criminal justice? Is an accusation all it takes to bring down a player? It's not just a guy missing a couple of games. Some people will always believe he did it, just because he was accused. Don't believe me? Ask Richard Jewell. He was exonerated beyond the shadow of a doubt and still, his life ended in a cloud of suspicion.

Again, I could recruit an army of prostitutes to make false allegations and LSU could win the sec. All I need is accusations, right? The mentality that suspends a player in this situation is the mainstream attitude that the man is likely guilty because he is a man and, probably more than that, the timid attitude by schools at all levels, who don't want to be sued for anything and have hair trigger attitudes as a result.
