Wasn't sure if I should post this in football or not. There isn't a ton of info yet but there probably will be questions asked of DeBoer at some point.

Husky Running Back Tybo Rogers Accused of 2 Rapes
Tybo Rogers, a University of Washington running back, faces allegations of raping two women he met separately on an online dating service during last football season, according to charging documents filed on Tuesday by the county prosectors' office.

Rogers, 18, is a sophomore from Bakersfield, California, who was held out of Saturday's spring football practice and the school moved to suspend him indefinitely from the team prior to Tuesday's afternoon workout.

Here is the main part that involves DeBoer/what I'm sure he'll be asked about...


As the school became aware that Rogers was being investigated for the sexual assaults, the DeBoer coaching staff didn't take the running back to the Pac-12 championship game in Las Vegas. However, he was allowed to rejoin the team and play in the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans and the College Football Playoff championship game in Houston.

Allegations/investigations occur on a regular basis. This is far different from being charged or indicted. Without more information that credible evidence was ignored by the coaching staff I can't criticize the coaching staff's handling of the situation. I also don't like the waiving away of constitutional rights in the article CJ posted, even though they have limited applicability.

Alabama owes us a thorough, candid explanation of DeBoer’s handling of UW player rape allegations

If this is true, this could upend Coach DeBoer’s tenure before it even begins. And it should.

For the record, I don't agree with the author, but this could be signaling problems down the road.

He sure went full red button on a very limited piece of information used in his article. I have no idea what happened, but the information he uses doesn't warrant anyone getting fired. Granted, that doesn't mean as more information comes out it won't, but not by what he provided. There's a lot of empty spaces in the story that need answers before we reach that point.

Idk that DeBoer did anything wrong. There just isn't enough information out there to this point. But I think its fair to ask questions. The RBR article is definitely a little much since the information is limited.

I will say, I don't understand why you would even bother playing him in the playoffs when he clearly wasn't an important member of the team. I mean 6 carries for 21 yards in 2 games... But that also makes me think there must be a reasonable explanation for it.

I would hope our administration's due diligence was aware of this while interviewing CKD and received an acceptable explanation and verification.
