The Michigan State football coach is suspended during an ongoing sexual harassment investigation.
“As a survivor, I’m shocked. As a Spartan, I’m disappointed. As Governor, I want answers,” Whitmer said in her statement. “I know the pain that so many feel when allegations like this come to light because I live it too. It’s retraumatizing. MSU holds a special place in so many of our hearts – which is what makes this hurt more.”
Haller said the university immediately hired an independent investigator to look into the complaint submitted by Tracy and he became aware of the situation in late December. He said the investigator submitted a report on July 25 with the recommendation for a formal hearing in October.
“We deserve to know when the university knew about these allegations and why they made the decisions they did,” Whitmer said in the statement. “We need to ensure that one of our state’s flagship universities, one that carries so much weight around the world, is learning from the past and not recreating it.Michigan State improved to 2-0 last week and will host No. 8 Washington on Saturday.
