TSJ Thread

In its brief, UI also noted that the student manager is not Alexander's direct report and that driving players around is not part of his job duties.
Pretty soon in terms of this basketball season, or pretty soon on a geological time scale?
It seems like the latter...

Is he a delegate? I performed a cursory search but couldn't find the definition on the site.

"SLAM DUNK NEWS: The U.S. Central District Court of Illinois GRANTED Terrence Shannon Jr’s Motion for Temporary Restraining Order and Injunctive Relief today. The Court held the school did not provide TSJ the appropriate safeguards under Title IX and was not afforded due process. TSJ is allowed to hoop, effective immediately."
HOLY HECK IT HAPPENED

When is the preliminary injunction hearing? The finding that Title IX applied is BIG, but a TRO is very limited in time generally 10 days or so until a preliminary injunction hearing can be held.

Anyone else a little torn? Yes, I believe TSJ to be innocent and want him to chase his dream. But, in the small chance things go the wrong way, it could look very bad.
Here's the money shot, that I just cut-and-pasted from the order:
III. CONCLUSION
For the reasons stated herein, Plaintiff has not shown a likelihood of success on his Title IX claim and is, therefore, not entitled to equitable relief as to Count I. As to Count VI, the Plaintiff has established that he has clearly ascertainable rights that need protection and there is some likelihood of success on the merits. The Court further finds that Plaintiff has no adequate remedy at law and will suffer irreparable harm without an injunction. The potential harm to Plaintiff outweighs any harm to the University. The public interest is not harmed by granting injunctive relief to allow for additional procedural safeguards while he is presumed innocent of the criminal charges. Because Plaintiff financially supports several family members, the Court will not require Plaintiff to post bond. See Wayne Chemical, Inc. v. Columbus Agency Service Corp., 567 F.2d 692, 701 (7th Cir. 1977) (“Under appropriate circumstances bond may be excused, notwithstanding the literal language of Rule 65(c)”). Based on this finding, the Court will not address Plaintiff’s remaining claims.
Therefore, Plaintiff Terrence Shannon, Jr.’s Verified Motion for a Preliminary Injunction (Doc. 10) is GRANTED. IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT: Defendant, The Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois, and all of its officers (including, but not limited to, Defendant Timothy Killeen), administration, employees, units, divisions, affiliates, and other agents, are hereby enjoined from continuing to suspend Plaintiff from the basketball team pursuant to the DIA Policy. Defendants are enjoined from suspending Plaintiff from the basketball team without at least affording him the protections of the OSCR Policy. The obligations of Defendants pursuant to this Order are to be construed as broadly as possible. This Order shall remain in effect until modified or terminated by a subsequent order.

????? Same question here.
edit - I thought there would be about 1000 new posts by now....
Insiders….does this mean they’re going to play him? I would think NOT playing him will open the university up to a huge lawsuit.
Anyone have the pleadings handy and can let us know what Count VI was? Since the judge said that he didn't show a likelihood of success under Title IX.
Well this sure puts Brad in an interesting situation. Now, here's where our insiders can potentially give us some insight?
