I think where Liberty screwed up was in the investigation, not the statement. If an athlete goes through a legitimate investigation and is found to have violated this policy then it should be reported as such.
Where the school got it wrong was intimidating possible witnesses who could've come forward in the players' defense. Because those witnesses were scared to speak up, only one side of the story was told. That factor led to a less the legitimate investigation.
My hope through this is that the truth, whatever it may be, will come out and that the University will revisit their protocol on these investigations.
