That was the most expensive 30-minute phone call in history.

MSU has provided Mel Tucker with Notice of Intent to end his contract per the Athletic

I believe that they will wait until the October hearing and then MSU will fire him immediately afterwards.

That's what McMuprhy changed to. He's fired, they just have to go through the proper process at MSU. Will we see the Attorney from Mars show up here? Stay tuned...

McMurphy might have to eat crow here. Looks like they suspended him without pay while they figure out how to terminate him for cause.

Seriously though. If you're going to do something like this as a coach, why would you pick her, of all people, to try it with? What a dumbass. He's married to an attorney and apparently proposed to her after their very first blind date (?!?). Not only is he not going to get the 80M left on his contract but anything he has in the bank is probably about to be half hers in the divorce. Lots of guys do dumb impulsive things like this a lot in life but you would think he would be smarter than than this with that huge contract MSU gave him.

Headline foreshadowing by ESPN here.

Tucker has been suspended. Sources - Michigan State fires Tucker amid harassment case - ESPN

I truly hope that the investigation finds real evidence because right now it is she said, he said thing. I tend to trust the woman in these cases. It is sad that in this day and age, things like this still happen. You would think that with all of the fired coaches in both basketball and football, coaches would know better.

Mel Tucker picked the absolutely wrong person to harass apparently. This should enable MSU to get out of the crazy contract they gave him.

It appears that Harbaugh is no longer suspended for the first 4 games.

I can’t tell if this is a Big Ten thread or just “big” thread. Arizona State has self-imposed a bowl ban this season stemming from ongoing NCAA investigation relating to the Herm Edwards era.

Wouldn't it be funny if it turns out that ASU winds up being the PAC champions?
