The Mel Tucker saga isn't over yet. In an unsurprising move (in my opinion), Kenny Jacoby of USA TODAY has reported that "former Michigan State head coach Mel Tucker has filed a lawsuit on Wednesday alleging the university and its leaders wrongfully terminated and defamed him amid a sexual harassment scandal last fall."
According to Jacoby, "The 75-page lawsuit filed in federal court in Michigan accuses the university of conducting an 'improper, biased, and sham investigation' designed to fire him, violating his right to due process. Tucker, a Black man, also accuses school officials of discriminating against him based on his race."
The lawsuit does not specify an exact dollar amount, but seeks compensation.
