There is no allegedly being gang raped by members of the Gophers football team. It is supposed to be about a recruit, an alleged rape of a female University student involved in game day operations (alleged to be a cheerleader), and some video taping by some individuals involved with the team about the incident. All of this stuff is allegedly and accusations, let's not start talking about this situation like it is all fact. The only thing we really know for sure is there was a suspension of four players by the football program for a violation of team rules. This week there was an HRO filing and a restraining order filed against six players that are members of the football team that barred them from the stadium and their living situations and there is a hearing this week.
Let's just say we don't really know anything, none of us were there and everything we say about it is just gossip and a lot of talk about not really knowing much. This stuff is serious business, probably a real distraction and has been disruptive to a lot of people's lives on the football team and the University community itself. Let the process play out, and let's not make statements that keep stoking the fires of gossip and innuendo. Let the courts and the professionals do their jobs. These are not children, adults need to make better decisions.
