Burn in hell, Joel Ferguson

Ferguson was a lightning rod during the Larry Nassar sex-abuse scandal, when victims and their families criticized him after he referred to the scandal as "that Nassar thing" during a radio interview. Ferguson denied he was attempting to be demeaning and he later issued an apology.

Ferguson was a major influence on athletics at MSU and was actively involved in several high-profile hires, including for football coach Mel Tucker after Mark Dantonio's sudden retirement in 2020. Mel Tucker was fired as head football coach in September 2023 in the wake of sexual misconduct allegations levied against him by rape survivor and advocate Brenda Tracy. Ferguson also was influential in the hiring of Bobby Williams as football coach in 2000, after Ferguson's good friend, Nick Saban, had left to become the head coach at LSU.
Michigan State supporters should be happily celebrating the demise of this piece of shit, the same way Michigan supporters will someday celebrate the demise of Jim Stapleton.

I saw the headline of his passing, and the first thought that crossed my mind was, "I sure hope someone pisses all over his grave."
Trump is too stupid to know what "reciprocal" means.

Agreed. The glowing media tributes forgot to mention what a piece of shit he was for decades.

Fuck Joel Ferguson he should've resigned after those comments about Larry Nassar and why he wasn't voted out from the regents by the voters is beyond me.
