The Sicatoka Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Miller's article is good, but I stand by my opinion that matters that would warrant a criminal charge should be dealt with in the public court system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hit piece written by the forum was as irresponsible as journalism gets and was written for one reason only. It would be responsible of them to clarify that UND could do nothing at the time and was actually in full compliance. I’ll be waiting for that effort involving anything in regards to NDSU football. That would involve taking the knee pads off and finding their way out from under Entz’s desk. They can only report what's there to report. Miller's article fills in the obvious gaps in McFeely's. That said, if there's stuff to report and they aren't, that's despicable, no matter where. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USTBench Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 On 6/23/2022 at 11:57 PM, Sioux>Bison said: No but the terms used in a title 9 hearing are very similar to the ones used in a legal trial. The decision maker is essentially the same thing as a judge who finds the accuser guilty or not guilty. The burden of proof is much higher in a criminal trial: more likely than not v. beyond a reasonable doubt. In District Court in ND (unless a bench trial is specifically requested) the judge is NOT the decision maker as to the facts, or as to guilt, the jury is. The judge only interprets the law. Having been in both situations, an administrative hearing is much more akin to a municipal trial on a low level misdemeanor or a traffic violation, where the determiner of the law and the facts is the same person, which most people would agree is not the appropriate way to adjudicate a sex crime. This is why anything worse than a B Misdemeanor in ND is prosecuted in District Court. I'm not saying administrative hearings don't have their place, they certainly do. Especially in situations such as these, where there might not be enough evidence to prosecute someone per se, but the alleged victim doesn't feel safe on campus and would like a voice. That said, banning someone from campus for 5 years is a big step in-and-of-itself, and there should be a higher burden of proof and impartial tribunal (instead of a solitary hearing officer) for sex assault claims in Title IX hearings. The accused should also have the right to an attorney provided at University expense, especially considering there are CVIC advocates who work within UND's Title IX office (I believe they should be a separate entity, and merely help facilitate the investigation). But, again, it's not a court of law. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Former football player Vern Lysford passed away Friday. Condolences to his family. Quote He attended University of North Dakota and graduated from the University of Minnesota-Morris in 1983. He played football at both colleges. He was a member of UND's 1979 NCC Championship team which was inducted into their Hall of Fame. https://www.duborefuneralhome.com/obituary/Vern-Lysford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he gets to start and/or play more instead of being a reserve, and that's what he wanted.....good for him and I wish him well. Sometimes I think they do go in the portal because they think they can go to a better school/football program, sometimes I think it's because they may want more playing time instead of being a 5th WR. Hard to tell in his case what his mindset was when he went into the portal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
