      Mike MacIntyre enjoyed a dream of a breakthrough season that ended in a 3-year, $16.25 million contract extension.

      Events that occurred between the end of the season and the announcement of that extension have now put the deal in jeopardy.

      While awaiting a flight home from the Home Depot college football awards show in early December, MacIntyre received a call from Joe Tumpkin’s longtime girlfriend, where the woman confessed years of physical abuse at the hands of the CU assistant. As detailed in a Sports Illustrated story, the woman made MacIntyre aware of the abuse, and the coach pledged to do something about it. She recalled around 80 incidents of violence over a 2-year period.

      MacIntyre spoke with CU athletics director Rick George and, as time progressed, the woman never heard from MacIntyre again — only the Buffaloes’ lawyer …

      One would think that  after Penn St that coaches and schools would err on the side of caution and temporarily reassign the alleged offender to other duties or suspend them with pay pending an investigation.

      If this happened 80 times over two years this guy is a serial abuser.  I used to have a colleague that would come to me and ask me to run NCIC checks on the guys she was dating that she met using online dating sites. 

      I used to tell her if you asking me to run background checks that’s your intuition telling you this guy is no good and to run the hell away.

      She dated one guy that had a rap sheet 32 pages long.
