MSU Trustee: Auston Robertson allegedly reported rape involving 3 players to Dantonio

Auston Robertson was the unnamed player that reported three of his ex-teammates to MSU football head coach Mark Dantonio for allegedly raping a woman at a party on Jan. 16, according to MSU Board of Trustees member Mitch Lyons.

Dantonio and Athletic Director Mark Hollis called a press conference on Tuesday to discuss the dismissal of Josh King, Donnie Corley and Demetric Vance for their alleged roles in a sexual assault. Later that day, though, Lyons confirmed in a radio interview with WBBL 107.3 FM in Grand Rapids that Robertson reported the three players to Dantonio after the incident happened in January.
