Several females from UT started a federal case against UT athletic department saying the athletic department covered up several sexual assaults from the Manning days to as recently as this month. Latest news is that a former football player in a sworn deposition said Butch Jones called him a traitor, and other players beat him up after he tried to help a victim who was allegedly sexually assaulted by other football players.

It looks really bad for UT, but nothing has been decided one way or the other in actual court, but in the court of public opinion UT is already dangling from a high tree branch with a short rope around their neck


Pretty accurate wrap up.

Somebody's lying in a big way but there's not one thing in the public view to give an accurate idea who.

I'm naturally suspicious of these type of suits because they're very often nothing more than an attempt to force a settlement and grab some cash so I tend to believe UT. If your natural tendency is to believe accusers, then you're going to believe the plaintiffs. Neither position is right or wrong because there's no evidence right now.

The only people wrong are those pronouncing the outcome before the case has even gone through the discovery phase.

The one thing I don't want to see is a sealed settlement that leaves all the questions unanswered. It needs to go through the judicial process and let the chips fall where they may.

So is Bowles in it for a cash payout from the plaintiffs? Because as far as the immediate future of Butch Jones and UT football, his statement is the most damning, yet he isn't a plaintiff.

Even if you subscribe to the theory that he made up the story that Jones told him he was a traitor (and thus committing perjury), why would he also make up the part about Jones calling back to apologize? That makes zero sense.

You forgot the part where Phil is a bi-sexual.
