Neither had been convicted of a crime when they were suspended. You're trying to conflate the ultimate outcome of the case, which we did not know when we were discussing whether UI should be able to suspend him and the TRO was granted, with whether the AD should've had the right to suspend him from basketball.
If it was a violation of TSJ's civil rights to suspend him from basketball pre-conviction, then it was a violation of Pierre Pierce's civil rights when Iowa did it too, whether he was guilty or not.
At the time, Steve Alford was going after the victim and trying to get her to drop it. When he was unsuccessful, Iowa pretty much had their hands tied.
Again, not the same situation. Iowa, Pierre, Steve, and everyone else knew what the fuck was up. Steve was trying to strong arm the victim into dropping it, and bringing up Jesus and all kinds of crazy bullshit.
TSJ was in a bar supposedly fingering a chic and fucking her in the ass. Looking back on it, seems unlikely, but your hero the Douglas county DA pushed it, so therefore, TSJ needed to not play.
