  • Donna- suspension with pay can rankle, but accords with tradition of following some sort of due process before punishment. I have to agree with Peter here. I do not condone what Kenny did. However, I believe he is being punished for not being at the NCAA Championships this weekend, especially since he has a real good team this year. Whatever happens, people will always remember why he was not there and it will never be forgotten. His reputation has definely been tarnished. I believe the University is investigating everything besides this incident. Why I did not know that he had past trouble with sexual harrassment at the University and they stood by him in his time of trouble. I believe we will hear something very soon about Kenny's situation and I am not surprised that nothing has been said in the last 7 days or so by the University or AD. I don't think it would be fair of the University to comment on this situation while the NCAA's are going on. The swimmers there would just be hounded by the press about this and maybe they still are now and for them to swim well they just have to block it out of there mind and move forward. Something tells me there is more here and a full investigation is going on right now to determine Kenny's fate. I am glad that at least he is getting much needed support from his past swimmers because up until about 5 days ago nobody was saying much. Until then I actually thought he was up ***** creek without a paddle. Since then swimmers have come forward to show much needed support for Kenny during this troubling ordel.
