Norwood Teague, Minnesota AD, Resigns Due to Inappropriate Texts, Touching

Minnesota athletic director Norwood Teague resigned Friday following allegations he sexually harassed two female employees of the school, per Sporting News' Mike DeCourcy.

The school confirmed Teague's resignation with immediate effect.

According to DeCourcy, Teague sent inappropriate texts and made unwelcome advances toward the women in question. DeCourcy's report included copies of the texts released by Minnesota, which Jana Shortal of KARE 11 in Minneapolis didn't think made for good reading:

Just was given a hard copy of the texts sent by Norwood Teague. Absolutely horrific.

"After careful and painful consideration, I've decided to leave the University of Minnesota," he told Shortal, per Sara Pelissero of KARE 11.
