Wow,.. who is in charge at the Duck athletic dept?  " no comment" for days...after publicly smearing one of their successful coaches with unsubstantiated accusations from a handful of perhaps disgruntled players ?  Rumors flying about "dismissal for cause"  which would significant...then back tracking?  Maybe the AD himself should clear the air...or are women's sports not important enough to rise to the level of AD?  Coach Moore and Metro and the staff have created a winning culture where there was none...marked with many successes over 12 years including trip to the national finals and support by many players from several teams over the years as evidenced by the letter sent to the president.... without any issues as noted in this article.  They should be given courtesy of at least  fair treatment by the department and administration.  Who is their direct report and why know statement from that individual? Shameful.
