Matt Haverstack is watching with a keen eye how the NCAA handles its investigation into Michigan State’s role in the Larry Nassar sexual abuse scandal.
Haverstack was an attorney in a lawsuit against the NCAA that helped overturn sanctions against the Penn State football program in the wake of a child sex abuse scandal involving Jerry Sandusky, the longtime Nittany Lions defensive coordinator who was accused of abusing 10 young boys over 15 years, including many he met through his charity organization The Second Mile .
