Magic Johnson offers to be 'part of the solution' to Michigan State scandal

Magic Johnson weighed in on the sexual abuse scandal that has his alma mater, Michigan State, under federal investigation, saying he wants to be "part of the solution."

"If anyone was aware of the sexual assault happening to women on the MSU campus from the office of the President, Board of Trustees, athletic department, faculty & campus police, and didn't say or do anything about it, they should be fired," Johnson, the Lakers' president of basketball operations, wrote Monday on Twitter.

Larry Nasser, who served as team doctor for Michigan State's athletics programs as well as USA Gymnastics for almost two decades, was sentenced to up to 175 years in prison for multiple counts of sexual misconduct against victims that included Olympic gymnasts.
