Report: Whistleblower spoke to NCAA president Mark Emmert about Michigan State allegations in 2010

NCAA President Mark Emmert was alerted to 37 allegations of sexual assault by Michigan State athletes at a meeting in 2010, according to a report.

As first reported by The Athletic, the meeting occurred in Indianapolis on November 2010 -- six months after Emmert's hiring. Also in attendance with legal expert Wendy Murphy.

Emmert met and received a letter dated November 17, 2010, from Kathy Redmond, the founder of the National Coalition Against Violent Athletes, that detailed the allegations about MSU athletes sexually assaulting women.

"Mark Emmert was brand new, and he'd initially said, 'One sexual assault is one too many,'" Redmond told The Athletic on Friday.
