If you want to investigate Spanier, I suggest you start by seeing if he was in charge of the University of Nebraska when Lawrence Phillips played there.

Phillips, as I recall, seriously abused and injured his "girlfriend," maybe more than once, and was I believe arrested and convicted, but somehow still allowed to play in the final games of the season and the post-season bowl game.

The above is why I will never hold former Nebraska coach and now Republican Congressman Tom Osborne in the high regard so many others do. The Phillips situation is one of what I recall are many examples of players running amok without any consequences.

As to Spanier, if he was in charge at Nebraska at the time, he clearly sat around and did nothing to protect whatever may still exist of the good name of the University of Nebraska. He seems well on his way to ruining Penn State.

Wow! Thanks.

That wasn't the incident I was thinking of, but it sounds worthy of investigation. If Spanier wants to pick on relatively defensive students, he should be willing to under an investigation of his own character.

I would ask all you who have been reading these threads, if you have any information about Graham Spaniers past that may demonstrate hypocrisy, or actions that may call into question his character or ability to lead a university, please post them on FR.

If you are a Pennsylvania resident, a PSU student from anywhere, or the parent of a PSU student, and you have information that may be relevant in a character investigation of Graham Spanier for purposes of a lawsuit, please post it on Free Republic.

Remember Gray Davis!

defensive = defenseless
