I think we need to hear from the AD on a lot of things more important than support for a coach. The football team currently has two players on suspension for hitting women, yet none of the coaches or the AD have made any statements. It would go a long way to assure the women on campus and in our community that their safety is important if the coaches and the Ad were to make a statement that no player will remain on the roster if they abuse women physically or sexually and treat women as less than human beings. Their refusal to make even basic statements is unacceptable, considering the money they receive and the concomitant power. 1 in 10 women will be sexually assaulted while attending the U of O. Think about that and then their silence. Meanwhile, another football player is kicked off the team for drugs and DUII, but Heard and Prevot are only suspended. This sends a message that the team will kick a guy with drug problems to the curb but not men who hit women. Unacceptable.
