I know he's not perfect and he could have violated a smaller university policy, but I absolutely cannot stand watching this guy get railroaded by a trashy media outlet, cowardly "unnamed" school officials (who IMO should be forced to resign for their actions), and some of our posters here continue to be absolutely disgusting and vulture-like any time the narrative seems to 'turn' in their favor...and these same posters probably think that we're bringing in some sort of 'major player' while being completely oblivious to the witch hunt playing out in front of them.
I also want to be mindful and not blame the instructor for the situation, but if that 'tell (the player) to stop badgering me' part is true, then they ought to take a look at themselves and their own ego strength and maybe ask themselves if they're in the right field. Tell the student that yourself and/or direct them elsewhere (supervisor, etc.).
I'm also extremely leery of what the 'unnamed sources' are saying and why they're saying it. To say I question the validity and integrity of what they're leaking would be putting it mildly...and sometimes I wonder if people here ever took any type of journalism class. Look at what's being reported, what's NOT being reported, and does an uncertain story seem to favor one side???...basic critical thinking exercises that seem to escape people (maybe when it's convenient for them)...
