"Michigan State Football Coach Mel Tucker Suspended Amid Sexual Harassment Allegations"
TL;DR
Michigan State University has suspended head football coach Mel Tucker without pay amid an investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct. Tucker is accused of harassing Brenda Tracy, a prominent advocate against sexual abuse, after they collaborated to combat the culture of sexual violence in college sports. Tracy accused Tucker of making sexual comments and masturbating during a phone call in April 2022, and she filed a formal Title IX complaint with the university in December. The university's decision to suspend Tucker comes after an independent investigator submitted a report on the case in July. A hearing is scheduled for October 5 and 6.
