Smart move on their part.....no telling what dirty laundry would have been aired and how much it would have ultimately cost them. JW will more than likely ultimately do the same thing.
They've been doing depositions for the last several months. Something came out during those depositions that caused the settlement. That's what happens.
There are some funny tweets. As well as some idiotic ones. I espaiclly like the one from FSU Mike that insists, INSISTS that if she was really "wronged" she would have never settled.
$950k.Looks like she got two proper cockings. First by J5 and 2nd by her attorney's. I guess 250K is worth her settling over? Scam.
I understand. But the settlement was for $950k. Which was record for a Title IX settlement.950K...700K of which is being reported goes to counsel.
The lawsuit against FSU is entirely different than the one against Winston, I would imagine. The FSU lawsuit is about FSU's failure in adjudicating its Title IX responsibilities. Even the most ardent Winston supporter knew they screwed up badly.So like I said... she got it good twice.
Football angle or not, from a purely legal perspective this interesting. A $1 million settlement is tantamount to an admission of guilt.
But they didn't admit guilt in the settlement. I hope she doesn't spend her 250K in one spot. FSU wanted this to go away without admitting guilt and they got exactly that.
Jimbo will pay more to Candi for sleeping around on him and hair plugs. The total amount of money, while big apparently for Title IX, seems more like stfu and go away money. Is it a surprise to anyone that this happened?
I was wondering when you would show up and start the FSU apology tour again.But they didn't admit guilt in the settlement. I hope she doesn't spend her 250K in one spot. FSU wanted this to go away without admitting guilt and they got exactly that.

There are very few settlements where the person/institution settling admits to guilt. That is why it is called a settlement.
A RECORD settlement of $950k means FSU was very, very worried that it would be much, MUCH worse if it went to trial.
There is no way to tap your heels three times and make all this seem better than it is, sparky.
The biggest crime here is that public funds were used for this. No matter whether this was consented relations or not; the fact that two peoples actions cost the taxpayers 950,000.00 is abhorrent.
Actually, THIS SETTLEMENT was more about a cover up by MULTIPLE people within the University & Athletics Department...just to protect a football program. That is even MORE abhorrent.
And to think it all could have been avoided had FSU took their responsibilities more seriously. It would not have taken much. They just had to launch an investigation in a timely manner, interview all parties involved and file a report. Plus take seriously all the threats the young lady received from fellow FSU fansThe biggest crime here is that public funds were used for this.

I was not implying that he was. I agreed with him and like you, upvoted his point.Don't be silly. ZZ isn't defending his school. If you weren't so determined to sling mud then you'd see that.
If you would like to move the goal posts from the point that I was making, you could at least give me a heads up. I am talking about public policy and government spending. Whilst you are still bemoaning some type of petty rivalry that probably defines your very existence.
