:LTD I have never been a Pat Murphy supporter and thought he was many times, a poor representative of our proud Sun Devil Program. That being said I feel the Athletic Dept. did not monitor many problem situations in all sports carefully enough to keep ASU out of NCAA trouble. The hideous way the Administration handled the Murphy situation by issuing disingenuous press releases and then stonewalling things with the public has only worsened the perception of ASU. (I know, it's a personnel matter and they are unable to comment) My feeling is, let the investigation take it's course and the facts come to light, then we should all decide if Pat Murphy got a raw deal or what he deserved. I'm just sorry it looks like ASU is in line to be hammered hard by the NCAA. The current players should not pay for any mistakes from the past unless they were involved. Good luck to Tim Esmay and staff for 2010 and the future.
: Great, add Willie to the long list of former players who were big supporters of ASU who will now be big supporters of Murphy elsewhere.
: FUBAR. Thanks a lot Lisa, Crow, BOR, etc.
