A Tampa judge, hearing the case of a University of South Florida football player charged with sexual battery, took the opportunity to scold USF coach Charlie Strong and question his leadership, saying she was “embarrassed and ashamed” to be an alumnus of the school.
Hillsborough County Judge Margaret Taylor expressed her views on the football program during Tuesday’s proceedings for Bulls junior defensive end LaDarrius Jackson, who was arrested in campus housing Monday night and charged with sexual battery and false imprisonment. A video of Taylor’s rant went viral and on Thursday she recused herself from the case.
