Auburn University Journalism professor emeritus John Carvalho doesn't think the athletic department/football program's handling of Malcolm Simmons's arrest on domestic violence allegations is a good look in the slightest.

The retired professor and alumnus voiced a worried tone, and claimed this could end up being a "terrible, insensitive look" for AU.

"For Auburn to not announce a decision on even suspending Malcolm Simmons, and leaving the alleged victim to increased pressure and the knowledge that her assailant faced no consequences from Auburn, could turn out to be a terrible, insensitive look," Carvalho tweeted.
