I think it was just that out of the ordinary.Yeah I see your point there. It's kind of mind-boggling how much press it has gotten. Slow newsday maybe? I don't know. Definitely not a good look for MSU.
What I will say is that it's a complete nothing compared to their coaches legal troubles last year amd msu's handling of them, which shamefully received no press coverage at all, largely due to sports media in Montana refusing to ask questions. THAT was the story that should have gone viral.
