Westy03 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 So one of the players that were involved in the incident is playing now and is still being represented by one of the lawyers. Just want to make sure I have that right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like both lawyers are still involved to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, not sure how accurate his info was but he was right about at least three of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I've heard is that the charges/accusations against the fourth, presumably the one who had his own lawyer, were dropped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt the attorneys will say how pleased they've been with the university's treatment of their clients. The lawyers only obligation is to the players. I like the move from a strategy standpoint.

SLU seems to try to do everything quietly so that no one notices. The second they get called on it, they spring into action. Take the closed practices in October. All it took was a negative article or two and bang, open practices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slufan13 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 I don't really know why but I'm convinced that the school has already decided on the punishment and they've been at that decision since before the season started. I think the players will be back after the first semester is over and that will coincidentally be the same time that the investigation is "over".

Or could it mean there was no reason to file a report and it's been the university punishing the players for code of conduct stuff? What in the hell is going on.

Or could it mean there was no reason to file a report and it's been the university punishing the players for code of conduct stuff? What in the hell is going on. Just reading through slu's policy, after receipt of the report, the investigation, hearing and appeal are supposed to be concluded in 60 days. It also states at the end of the investigation, another report is written and given to the parties summarizing what is found. Once they both agree, that report is finalized and makes a recommendation to the hearing officer. Both parties get a written notice of the outcome of the Hearing Officer's findings and then appeals can start. There will be written notification at the conclusion of the appeals. So there are 2 referenced reports but a lot of written notifications which could be what he refers to as well. What was tweeted sounded like it came from Rosenblum and if it goes past 60 days, they are supposed to receive written notification and updated timeline. Since it sounds like he plans on speaking if SLU doesn't, he didn't receive that and expects it to be concluded. My guess which is a complete guess.

davidnark Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I truly don't understand why this is taking so long. This is most akin to an internal investigation at a corporation when there are accusations of violations of corporate policies that may or may not arise to the level of criminal wrongdoing. I have had awareness of numerous such investigations, and the investigation and report usually takes weeks (or even days), not many months. Dragging out the investigation is not going to mitigate the potential liability of the university. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
