"Cutting through the legalese, what the players -- none of whom were charged in the dismissed sex assault case -- are saying, especially as it applies to Duke, is that instead of supporting them, the university sat back while they were under general harassment…" -- Bill Ordine, columnist, Baltimore Sun, 2/22/2008
"It's hard to underestimate just what sort of injustice this case represented, as Nifong's chicanery during the investigation triggered a chain of events throughout the academic community and the national media that resulted in the entire team being tried and convicted in the court of public opinion." -- Eric McErlain, AOL Sports, 2/21/2008
