The school said Wednesday that it terminated what's left of Tucker's $95 million, 10-year contract for acknowledging actions that subjected the institution to ridicule, breaching his contract and moral turpitude.
Attorney Jennifer Belveal said the school knew Tucker acknowledged during the investigation in March that he had had phone sex with Tracy. Belveal also cited Tucker's "serious medical condition" in stating that the embattled coach reserves his right to fully respond to the university's planned firing when he's medically cleared.
Tracy's allegations were made public by USA Today earlier this month, and on the same day that the report was published, Tucker was suspended. Tracy is known for her work with college teams educating athletes about sexual violence. Michigan State paid her $10,000 to share her story with the football team.
