agreed. i'll never try to figure out what happens behind closed doors, so i won't even speculate. i just hope that hilton doesn't let this thing drag on forever. he needs to nip it in the bud to minimize pr damage to a&t. the longer this thing drags out, the more damage it does to our "brand". so far i haven't seen this being discussed on other message boards like mfz or onnidan. hope it stays that way...

Martin usually has a "two strikes and you're out" policy.
This would be the second Title IX violation by the Athletic Department within a year.
Earl is gonna have to have a sit down with the chancellor and tightened some things up.

Speaking of dragging out . So I'm guessing that the cheerleader allegations have been handled and concluded ?

No coach has been announced and cheerleader link on the ncataggies.com is dead.

Bottom line we did not learn anything from the cheerleader situation. Whether this young lady is telling the truth or not our coaches dropped the ball big time.
The Chancellor should take a very hard stand wherever it may lead. We are the number 1 HBCU in the nation and we continue to be in the news for stuff like this.
Parents are going to be afraid to send their kids here with us continously dropping the ball in sexual cases whether they really happened or not.
We need to take this situation seriously and quit making dumb a$$ jokes about it.
Bottom line the Chancellor should tell Hilton regardless of how successful you have been if this occurs again you are gone.
Hilton should have made it very clear to his subordinates after the cheerleader situation that any person failing to report a sexual report by any student that they would be fired.
It is evident that this did not happen because we are in the news again. Our enemies love this.
Come on Hilton, come on coaches and do your damn jobs.

No coach has been announced and cheerleader link on the ncataggies.com is dead. Cheerleading is now deemed a sport at A&T. They are suppose to hire an experienced coach. I assume they will recruit members?? They are suppose to train and participate/compete against major programs. Does anyone know, if that is still the schools' plan??

All that is well and good but what about the Rape allegations . Making cheerleading a sport dose not dismissed the allegations that were made by the young lady . As stated above kicking the can down the road only proves that they are not taking the first allegation seriously and have not learned a thing from it .

Saabman, The administration will handle the crisis or allegations. That's their job. They will be held accountable by the State Legislature, the Board of Governors, the President of The UNC System, the A&T BOT and the community at large. However, that doesn't mean that they will solve this issue quickly, without doing a thorough investigation. You can be assured that Martin and the A&T Community are not kicking any cans or rocks down Market Street.
The cheerleading response was addressed to Maxell's concern about the program. It was information for him to inquire about where the program is headed. It was not intended to make an assessment of the rape allegation. This board can only offer conjecture to this discussion.
