MAD597 Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Slap on the wrist, the last scandal was so horrific I think they should have just closed the school, but of course nothing really happened, nothing will happen this time and no one will be really held accountable FuhRealDoh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever the case, that school just can't keep egg off its face. I wish I could have seen the athletic director's face when he got that email/phone call. "He did WHAT?! You have to be ****ing me!"

vel Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 This story is breaking, but it has to do with some NFL Draft Prospects. Quote Former Penn State football player Isaiah Humphries, who left the program in 2018, reportedly filed a federal lawsuit Tuesday that alleges head coach James Franklin and the coaching staff ignored and even retaliated against him when he reported violent hazing by some of his teammates. Matt Miller of Penn Live reported the news, noting Humphries sued Franklin, the university and former teammate Damion Barber. Miller reported the lawsuit also named Micah Parsons, Yetur Gross-Matos and Jesse Luketa as "ringleaders of the alleged abuse" and stated the hazing included players saying "I'm going to Sandusky you" in reference to former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky, who is in prison for molesting young boys while on staff. Humphries described the hazing in the lawsuit and said Luketa went as far as to threaten to kill him for complaining about it. "He claims his alleged tormenters would wrestle victims to the ground, then shove their genitals in the victims' faces or between their buttocks and hump them," Miller wrote. "Those who resisted were bullied, he contends. Hazers also stole their targets' clothes, Humphries says." As for Franklin and the coaching staff, Humphries said they would have him do drills they knew he couldn't complete after he reported the hazing and spoke negatively about him to other programs after he elected to transfer. He also said an academic adviser subjected him to "irrational and inappropriate censure." Penn State released a statement after the story was reported, revealing it followed the "established processes in place for responding to claims of potential misconduct" and investigated. The Office of the Centre County District Attorney also reviewed the case and did not pursue any charges: Humphries, who was a member of the 2018 recruiting class, never played a game for the Nittany Lions. He tweeted he was leaving "in order to grow and not lose the passion that I have for football and for everything that I value." The safety, who transferred to California, is the son of Leonard Humphries, who played at Penn State and for one season in the NFL. Franklin has been the head coach at Penn State since the 2014 season and has a 56-23 record. This is not the first time he has been involved in headlines concerning his conduct away from the field. In April 2014, when four of his Vanderbilt players were facing rape charges, ESPN reported Franklin "contacted the accuser shortly after the alleged incident." In October 2014, Tony Gonzalez of USA Today reported Franklin testified in a pre-trial hearing for the players and "changed his story ... about whether he had seen a video of what police say was a sexual assault on a student by four former football players in June of 2013." Miller noted Humphries' lawsuit was filed in U.S. Middle District Court. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jpg428gggg Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 How can a school and coach be so stupid? After all the Sandusky stuff, you would think they would be smarter. I have always thought that Franklin was a piece of poop so I hope they nail him for this. This kind of stuff happens way too often in high school football.

1989Fan Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 So at least this thread is posting the truth unlike 2012s, and the idiocy that followed. so, as a PSU guy this is very disappointing for sure. And if true that Franklin not only looked the other way, but encouraged it and blackballed the victim, he needs to go immediately. This is a tone that is set by the coach...and it shouldn’t have ever happened, let alone more than once! like I said, very disappointing to see State players mocking the Sandusky scandal and using it as a means for hazing underclassmen. I am sure some level of **** goes on with most programs, but this **** is inexcusable, period. I talked to some old sports guys who pretty much said “that’s some old-school hazing, can’t do that **** anymore” interesting that only a civil suit was filed...we shall see how this plays out. Not the look the program needs barely removed from the Sandusky tragedy for sure. as for how this impacts YGM and other players come draft day, who knows, too early to tell. Do teams look at it as being childish and something the player can/will learn and move on from, or is it a severe hit? YGM was named but the suit isn’t against him. Another player named (Micah Parsons) May have more to lose as a potential top 5-10 prospect next year. BamaBirdLady 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
