A notice of intent to fire Tucker was filed with the MSU administration and Board of Trustees, according to a statement from the athletic director.
"I, with the support of administration and board, have provided Mel Tucker with written notice of intent to terminate his contract for cause," read a statement from Alan Haller. "This notification process is required as part of his existing contract. The notice provides Tucker with seven calendar days to respond and present reasons to me and the interim president as to why he should be terminated for cause.
Tracy had been hired to speak to the school's football team after forming a partnership with Tucker. She later lodged a complaint against him last December and an investigation was complete earlier in July. "It is decidedly unprofessional and unethical to flirt, make sexual comments, and masturbate while on the phone with a University vendor. The unprofessional and unethical behavior is particularly egregious given that the Vendor at issue was contracted by the University for the sole purpose of educating student-athletes on, and preventing instances of, inappropriate sexual misconduct.
