Vasser, Denno, and Balow were NOT on the board of Trustees when Nancy Schlichting resigned, and she cited Scott's unwillingness for transparency as a reason she wanted to leave.

If Schlichting had never resigned, the vote regarding the secrecy pledge would have been 4-4, which means it would have failed.

At least in Michigan, the people have a mechanism to vote out anyone they don't like on the board of trustees. At times there will be people elected that are unpopular. We literally had a former governor of Michigan become president of MSU, and the masses demanded we fire him and the board of trustees complied. How would that have happen if he would have been able to threaten any board member that criticized him with removal? The board is supposed to be a check on the president, not a rubber stamp that pencil whips investigation. Do we really want a clemson style system where trustees are appointed for life?

We are setting a dark precedent for future trustees - go along with the majority or there will be 600,000 Spartans ready to punish you. Stay silent and go along with the crowd, cover up any future scandals because they make MSU look bad

Why did we spend 2 million investigating Vasser and Denno but certain trustees prevented an investigation into what led to the Nasser scandal? Was the investigation of Vasser and Denno really about some trustees having a grudge and willing to burn through msu money to go after other trustees?

I'm just asking everyone to think past today and tomorrow before we bring we bring unintended consequences to the State of Michigan. And ask yourself -- who is really funding this smear campaign? Is it truly organic like the "We Heart Kevin G" grassroots campaign? Or are there players behind it that stand to make a lot of money if they have a set of trustees that cant speak out.

Thank you to MSU for getting him his letterman jacket back <3

Columbus has a large Iraqi diaspora due to the fallout from Saddam Hussein's regime -- America must learn from the horrors of dictators around the world and make sure that the USA never has its own Saddam Hussein

Why did a Clemson Jet go to Lansing MI today?

In hindsight how good was the 2014 football team? They ended the season with 2 losses ... and the only 2 teams they lost to ended up playing for the national title. Cotton Bowl Champions

20 years later, MSU still holds the record for largest comeback in NCAA football history. Trailing Northwestern 38-3, the Spartans (led by spartan Dawg Drew Stanton) came back to win 41-38 despite the refs giving NW multiple chances at the end

I'm afraid we are marching with our pitchforks towards something very bad. While I highly respect coach, I disagree that the governor should appoint boards just because other places do it, like Ohio State. Ohio State's former governor put Wexner's wife (Jeff Epstein pal)on their board of trustees.

Do you think this is a real thing that happens?

I feel like nothing is making sense anymore. The Clemson community is already attacking Guskiewicz's hiring due to the secrecy of the trustees around his hiring. I thought we want Vassar, Denno, and Balow gone because they wont sign the secrecy pledge which led to him leaving? Is he grifting?
