Mizzou guard Michael Dixon leaves school after second sexual assault allegation comes out.
More bad news for Mizzou. As if their football season wasn’t ugly enough, MU fans were hit while they were down as news of Michael Dixon’s second sexual assault charge came to light . The offense actually occurred in 2010 (Dixon’s freshman year) Not long after the news of the second charge broke, Dixon announced that he is leaving Mizzou and has already left the basketball team.
Dixon had been serving an indefinite suspension which head coach Frank Haith said was for “violating team policy”. The 201o charge was reported to the head coach at the time, Mike Anderson, by the victim, but no action was taken after she decided not to press charges.
Dixon continues to plead his innocence by tweeting “I’ve done nothing wrong” which doesn’t seem to indicate that he has grasped the seriousness of his crimes. This has repeat offender written all over it.
