    To Huskies fans a tragic hero, to the courts a wanted felon

    When Williams played against Idaho, he had a warrant out for his arrest. He'd been arrested every year he was here: 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000. He was a convicted felon who'd served time for choking his wife. Two other assault charges were pending against him. He was accused of cutting his wife's face, breaking her arm, breaking her nose.

  • Just remembered another really creepy horrifying story from that school:

    On July 27, 2000, Stevens was arrested for the sexual assault of a 19-year-old University of Washington freshman. Stevens initially denied having sex with the accuser, but later admitted to having sex with her in the yard of a fraternity house in the early morning hours of June 4, 2000, after a fraternity party, but maintained it was consensual. However, a UW student who walked by and witnessed them having sex called 911 to report it as a possible rape, noting that the woman appeared to be drugged; he described her as "half passed out ... eyes glazed ... no one home."[7][8] Stevens's semen was found in the victim, who was penetrated vaginally and anally, and numerous witnesses testified that she acted as if drugged at the party. Police suspected a date rape drug was given to the woman at the party, but blood samples were taken too late for testing.

    Despite these suspicions, the King County prosecutor declined to file rape charges against Stevens due to "confusing and conflicting statements".[7][8]

    A civil suit, which resulted in a settlement, was later filed by the victim. The civil settlement was not publicly disclosed, but according to published reports included a $300,000 payment by Stevens to the plaintiff. The investigation and aftermath of this incident and the subsequent decision to not charge Stevens were reported by the Seattle Times.[7][8]

  • This story is incredible:It's long. Just read it. I've posted a teaser.

    Key UW linebacker played entire season after his bloody print was tied to shooting

    Days before the draft, Davis had asked the UW's coach, Rick Neuheisel, about Pharms. Neuheisel's report glowed.

    Fans get duped. Newspapers get duped. Even an NFL team handing out million-dollar contracts can get duped.

    More than a year earlier, on March 14, 2000, at about 8 p.m., Pharms showed up at the apartment of Kerry Sullivan, a small-time drug dealer in the University District.

    Pharms, a 250-pound linebacker from Sacramento, Calif., was a star at the UW. He bench-pressed more than 400 pounds, sported a pit-bull tattoo, and sometimes, during games, locked eyes with an opposing player and proceeded to urinate, the stream darkening his pants. He did this to intimidate. After all, who'd want to go against someone as crazy as that?

    Pharms walked into Sullivan's bedroom, where the dealer retrieved a quarter-pound of marijuana..Pharms talked about how he was failing his classes. He later left the apartment.

    About 3 hours later..
    A roommate of Sullivan's answered, and two men came in. One, wearing a ski mask, ran into Sullivan's bedroom while the other intruder held a gun on the roommate and said, "Shhhh."

    Sullivan, in his room studying for a calculus exam at Seattle Central Community College, heard someone yell: "Freeze. Don't turn around." Sullivan turned around. He saw a masked man with a silver automatic, jumped up and grabbed for the gun. The two men wrestled, then the robber pulled away and pistol-whipped Sullivan. As Sullivan fell, the robber fired a shot that went through Sullivan's right thigh and lodged in his chest, just missing his liver.

    The robber went to Sullivan's closet, grabbed the bag of marijuana -- worth about $1,000 -- and ran off, tripping over a telephone cord and smashing into a wall on the way out.

    Detectives with the Seattle Police Department's gang-crimes unit were in the area and showed up first. Next came Mike Magan, a robbery detective who once played football at the UW.

    Institutional coverups, more violence, way more info in the article.

  • Based on Emmert's comments on OTL about PSU academics in football being poor, it almost feels like Emmert assumed that PSU was in this condition.

    In reality, the coverup was an extreme 1 off, perpetrated by 3-4 people. PSU won the academic bowl for the top grad rate in football last year.

    PSU consistently graduated 80-90% of it's kids, and exceeded some conferences in number of academic all americans.

    Seems like Emmert had very little idea of the wider situation at PSU.

  • You retards do realize that Mark Emmert didn't come to UW until 2004, right? And you also realize he came in and cleaned house, right? So what does this have to do with anything?

    It's not completely about Emmert. It's about Univ. of Washington. Though Emmert did pay the hush money in 2004.

    Point is that the institution covered it up systematically.

    If Emmert slams PSU for covering up in 2001, certainly UW should be subject to to the same scrutiny / penalties. Their issues are over a similar timeframe.

    Emmert should go after UW.

    Pushback from concerned university presidents already starting?
