"The University has received reports of unwelcome conduct by Coach McCarty since his arrival in March 2018," UE President Chris Pietruszkiewicz wrote in an internal letter to staff. "We have counseled him about his behavior. In the last two weeks, the University received a troubling report about Coach McCarty’s interactions with a member of the campus community. We have placed Coach McCarty on leave while that incident is being investigated."

Don't know much about this, but people down in Evansville last weekend for the Murray State game, there were some rumors swirling. It's pretty common knowledge that Coach WM likes the nightlife....so to speak......but don't really have any details. Trust me I will be calling friends down there tonight.

Ok, lets say there has been misconduct, but what in the world does that have to do with Title IX???? I doubt if he has changed the number of sports offered, the number of scholarships per sport, and so on.

The official text of the Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972:
No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.

It also reporting and/or acting on allegations if sexual harrassment or sexual assault(which in this case falls under sexual discrimination). If McCarty has been suspended for a violation of it, it likely means he either did something, or failed to act/investigate when one of his players did something. If it is the former, he is likely done at E-ville. If it is the latter he and E-ville are likely going to be in trouble, but he'll likely go back to coaching there.

Interesting post from the person who ran PurpleAcesFan.com as he is shutting down the site effective Monday.

Does anyone else find them envious of the Evansville situation? They get to void the contract. Somebody hire a ringer.

Title 9 is way to broad in its interpretive language. Mostly against male coaches and all seminars state that all male coaches are predators. Really a shame.
