Such as . . . ?Think what you want but I know that things that would show facts about food or drinks after the game just so happened to be left out of the article.

I know for a fact they were approved prior to the trip and it is in writing. ISU does internal auditing which Athletics did have done.Really, they just stopped by for a bite? The expenses were submitted as reimbursements after the trip so, no, they were not approved in advance that is false. The AD's expenses are signed off on by the president and the foundation processes them. Athletics does have their own separate audit done each year (they are external auditors, not internal - Streigel does that audit I believe). I don't know that at the time Rossi's legal 'issues' were fully known but the pledge was brought to the attention of management last year about being written off and wasn't so that is really the story now. Could have been avoided. That pledge is the loose end that brought all of this other stuff out.
The feds will let you know soon!Hmh....wonder if this has anything to do with the donation for the bubble?
He resigned. Has to be pretty strong. This sucks too. Because it puts us behind a bit. Hopefully we bring in a stud for AD!It's being reported by the ISU NPR station. I'd say it's pretty solid. Anything reported by news outlets is fair game.
How do you approve of an Uber beforehand, especially one from a strip club’s address . . . ? Considering that kind of expense would to go thru the Foundation management, I’m finding it extremely difficult to believe anything you’re saying. Granted your first comment made believing really, really hard.I know for a fact they were approved prior to the trip and it is in writing. ISU does internal auditing which Athletics did go have done.
Please don't bring facts to a bit!! party.I know for a fact they were approved prior to the trip and it is in writing. ISU does internal auditing which Athletics did have done.
approved by whom? I know for a fact that the foundation office doesn't approve the AD's expenses. That is done by the supervisor, which in this case would be the president's officeI know for a fact they were approved prior to the trip and it is in writing.

Is this Mark? Or someone from the athletics business office?Think what you want but I know that things that would show facts about food or drinks after the game just so happened to be left out of the article.
If it involves Foundation $$, then the Foundation has to approve. And this involved Foundation $$.approved by whom? I know for a fact that the foundation office doesn't approve the AD's expenses. That is done by the supervisor, which in this case would be the president's office
as a secondary sign off which is done after the fact with reimbursements. the primary approver is the supervisor.If it involves Foundation $$, then the Foundation has to approve.
well....not anymoreIs this Mark? Or someone from the athletics business office?
Also...something to think about...jmo, but SOMEONE tipped off WGLT to this story. Now isn't that interesting...
The tickets for the game had pre-approval. Ubers are not something you need prior approval for. You don't have to believe me. I am not here to make anyone believe me. I just don't think it is right that facts are missing which skew perceptions.How do you approve of an Uber beforehand, especially one from a strip club’s address . . . ?

Could you lay out the facts, then? What happened that the article is choosing to leave out?The tickets for the game had pre-approval. Ubers are not something you need prior approval for.

What if you’re just like me? The article has some truths. The relationship with Rossi is sketchy at best since the indictment. Do I think we know all? No. Do I think everything with this individual was on the up and up? Probably not. Am I saying Brennan or Marty are 100% guilt of wrongdoing? No.The tickets for the game had pre-approval.

Please don't bring facts to this and screw with our skewed perceptions.The tickets for the game had pre-approval. Ubers are not something you need prior approval for. You don't have to believe me.

I don't particularly like Ryan but he did a pretty good of reporting here. I don't think he left anything out I just think he doesn't have all the facts. The strip club thing is a very bad look and no that would not have 'approved' of by anyone at the foundation or in the president's office. The main issue here is that the pledge remained around long enough to unravel all of these other things. That's the question Ryan should be asking - why did that happen? Had it been removed as soon as Rossi's problems came to light probably none of these other things come out.Could you lay out the facts, then? What happened that the article is choosing to leave out?
They were only being gracious because it was so crowded there weren’t enough seats so they let some ladies kindly sit on their laps. Gentlemen, I say, and should be promoted. It was obvious!I would assume that they found somewhere in the area to sit until things died down. They are at a Big Ten Game and there are Bars and food spots all right there in that area
