Ep 519 | Mel Tucker, Michigan State Saga Should Be a Cautionary Tale | Deion Wins Again, Changes Tune
from Fearless with Jason Whitlock · host Blaze Podcast Network
“There are no good guys or girls in the Mel Tucker saga. None.” Following Michigan State’s rout on Saturday, the university announced it was suspending head coach Mel Tucker without pay pending an investigation of allegedly inappropriate sexual behavior with a rape survivor and sexual and domestic violence counselor once employed by the football team. Brenda Tracy charges Tucker initiated non-consensual phone sex, while Tucker alleges Tracy sought a “sugar daddy” relationship with him. Jason says in the aftermath of the Dr. Larry Nassar molestation tragedy, the atmosphere in East Lansing was charged to create the firestorm that will ultimately lead to Tucker’s dismissal. “The rise and fall of the Michigan State football coach is a story about the complicated and disingenuous relationships between brand-builders, influencers, billionaires, and institutions.” T.J. Moe and Steve Kim join “Fearless” to add their perspective on the matter. Plus, Steve and Jason hit the headlines from across college football’s second weekend, including Deion Sanders and Colorado remaining undefeated. Is Jason a believer in Coach Prime now? The jury is still out, but Whitlock says if Deion does sustain this success, there’s one person who deserves some credit. We want to hear from the Fearless Army!!
