    First post on too hot…. Can someone explain to me how a sex phone call can be non consensual.

    It seems to me to be pretty easy to just hang up the phone if one does not like what they are hearing.

    I’ll explain. When you are getting paid $10 million dollars a year and have a large buyout (and are a notable minority hire to boot) and are losing games badly, phone sex or any other act of moral turpitude becomes a showstopper.

    Read the facts around the timing of the incident and communication between the university and the coach.

    What a weird story. Choosing to harass a professional sexual assault speaker and former victim, even over the phone, seems pretty dumb… and cruel.

    “The idea that someone could know me and say they understand my trauma but then re-inflict that trauma on me is so disgusting to me, it’s hard for me to even wrap my mind around it,” Tracy told USA TODAY. “It’s like he sought me out just to betray me.”

    The fact you can hang up does not render a call consensual.

    There was a comedian Louis CK who had a kink where he would masturbate with women on the phone when they weren’t aware. When he was a struggling comic women would just cuss him out and hang up when they figured it out. Then he made it big and had a successful tv show that he produced. Could you hang up on someone who could really advance your career?

    Me, too. I was hoping it was going to be the smoking gun tying him to the Russians as a foreign agent.

    I see we are taking the women's side here without all the facts? Anyone talking with someone 27+ times for an average of 30+ minutes a phone call is in a relationship. As another poster said, if you don't want to be on the phone, hang up.

    Pretty sure he jerked off with women actually in the room with him.

    Isn't he married? That alone would be enough to register this as problematic in my book.

    Go GATORS!

    More importantly, it becomes a trigger for firing with cause.

    I thought she was a consultant that promotes sexual assault awareness in Football programs. It's possible she thought she found a coach who was really willing to listen to her, and he was like, "damn, this lady keeps calling me and talking about sex stuff, she must really want me."
