— The University of Evansville has placed men’s basketball coach Walter McCarty on administrative leave pending an investigation into alleged violations of the university’s Title IX policy, according to a news release issued Friday afternoon.
Evansville received reports about McCarty’s off-court behavior, including an incident that appeared to violate its Title IX policy.
“The University has received reports of unwelcome conduct by Coach McCarty since his arrival in March 2018,” Evansville president Chris Pietruszkiewicz wrote in an internal letter to staff.
In the last two weeks, the University received a troubling report about Coach McCarty’s interactions with a member of the campus community.
We have placed Coach McCarty on leave while that incident is being investigated.”
