In a statement from USD, the school said it has a “zero-tolerance policy” on hazing.
Nearly half of the University of San Diego football team is facing disciplinary action for allegedly participating in hazing, according to university president Dr. James Harris.
Discipline includes indefinite game suspension, Dr. Harris said in a letter sent to school staff which NBC 7 obtained Monday. The university shared the results of its investigation with the San Diego Police Department and has also invited a third party to review the alleged incident, according to the letter.Reports of hazing were brought to first-year head coach Brandon Moore on Aug. 18.
Harris said the university's zero-tolerance policy on hazing has been explained to student-athletes at several points this preseason. "I wish to commend the courageous young men who truthfully recounted what had transpired. They represent the high character and integrity we hope to see in our students," Harris said in his letter.
