Roughly half of the University of San Diego Football team is facing disciplinary action just before the start of the season after an investigation of an alleged hazing within the program.
As a result, the football team’s activities were suspended as officials have begun an investigation, which included interviewing the players. The University of San Diego said that approximately half of the team, who were either active or passive participants, will face varying degrees of disciplinary actions.
Players could also face more discipline from the University of San Diego, as the announced disciplinary actions are only related to athletic participation. The University of San Diego also said that there is a zero-tolerance policy for hazing. To add, Moore and the school administrations have addressed the policy on multiple settings at the beginning of the fall camp.
