Doesn't Altman have a record of being a pretty big douche with players and opposing coaches....I know many have said Boyle can't stand him
Oregon basketball has been a mercenary program with a lot of roster turnover.
Even with that in mind, what's going on is off the hook. There is something going on beyond the normal course of business.

They always have a good class coming in. They don't recruit, they reload. But even with trying to reload every year, they have some serious issues in that program.
So the cops and prosecutor added a statement that they know the events happened (Dotson forcible rape against someone), but they can't win at court due to some problems with victim testimony.
Damn.
Pure speculation that is unfair to all parties time... that sounds suspiciously like someone getting to the victim and she changing her statement. (Also speculating that the victim was female.)
or there is pressure on the prosecutor to bury the case, and the prosecutor is pissed.
Here's the police report

Just skimmed it. umm, agree it wasn't prosecutable. Guess that's not a word, but whatever. It was twisted drunken **** and lines were crossed. Ugh, ****ty world. That's a hard case to have.
Just some wild speculation here but here goes:
Oregon loves being in the spotlight but they don't have the culture like you find in SEC or SWC country. Behind the fans reveling in the glory of the Ducks rise to prominence in football and getting attention in basketball is a population base that isn't that different than the same people who backed the Mary Keenan witchhunt in Boulder.
We know that any time you have about 125 young men (FB and BB combined) together in a group away from home for the first time things are going to happen.
If they don't clean house with these guys and cut ties this could become a program killer. This incident gets some press, then something else happens, doesn't have to be big or involve the same kids, it just has to happen.
When the other stuff does happen then this incident keeps coming back with the "What do you expect from a program that would keep rapist and women beaters" argument.
The actual facts at that point don't even matter just like at CU where suddenly the entire team became a bunch rapist and criminals in the eyes of the media.
For Oregon the big question becomes when do they become enough of a PR liability that Phil Knight and Nike decide to cut ties with the program.
Not saying that this incident will lead to that extreme but the potential does exist with the culture of the Pacific Northwest including a group of the population that hates college sports and the attention it gets, just like we have in Boulder.

Just curious but what is the standard waiting period when it becomes OK ? A few hours, a day, a week ?
EDIT: I made this comment without seeing the report. Don't want to make it seem like I was making light of what happened.
The idea that was uninteresting and even gross to me would have been putting my P in a girl who was so drunk she was nearly comatose. Never understood how anyone would ever consider that as something he wanted to do.
I think the standard is you need to give her oral first to clean things up. Otherwise, it's way too gay.

Apparently they need a no gang bang policy like UGA basketball:

So if all that happened why did she blow him on her way out the door in the morning?
We have a competent admin...now
Dr. Phil left? I guess I missed that....

It would be beyond fantastic if Phil DiStefano were to be recruited and accept a job at the university of Oregon to implement institutional controls.
He's been an issue recently? Set the requirements for the new AD and has been involved in facilities a lot (being present when recruits are visiting and helping RG and Benson with the facilities pitch). Hold onto the past all you want but they've changed.
Ahh, grasshopper, call it holding on to the past if you like, but Dr. Phil has been at the helm since 1/09. CU athletics, particularly FB, has been at it's lowest point, in forever, during that time. Coincidence? Maybe, but Dr. Phil has a lot to overcome to make me a believer.
