0:00.0	Hey, it's Andy. Before we get started, I want to talk about some of the stuff you're going to hear it in the beginning part of the show.
0:06.6	That's the section where I'm talking about Mel Tucker and his situation at Michigan State.
0:11.8	When we recorded the show live on Sunday night, it was a few hours after the Michigan State press conference involving the athletic director and the president.
0:20.8	And at the time, neither one of them said that they had not learned the specifics of this case
0:28.0	until Sunday, basically when USA Today dropped the story.
0:34.0	Now, in a lot of places when you have a title nine situation the specifics are kept from the
0:40.9	superiors of the person accused because you don't want anybody kind of meddling in the investigation

1:26.9	a university spokeswoman to various media outlets.
1:30.5	So this could be butt covering.
1:32.9	This could be them trying to make things look better when they looked bad.
1:37.0	Or it could be they legitimately messed this messaging up and the president and the AD didn't know the full extent of what was going on
1:46.5	until Sunday when the USA Today's story came out. All of this stuff can be true.
1:52.0	Does it really change the basics of what's going on that Mel Tucker is probably not going
1:58.3	going to be back as Michigan State's coach? I'll explain why that's probably the case as we get into the body of the show.
