CHRIS MASSARO STATEMENT RELEASED TO MEDIA ON WEDNESDAY APRIL 12 IN RESPONSE TO ANIMAL CRUELTY INVESTIGATION OF TWO FOOTBALL PLAYERS
"The actions captured on the video are obviously disturbing. We welcome the inquiry by the Rutherford County Pet Adoption and Welfare Services. We have high expectations of conduct of our student-athletes. Coach Stockstill has suspended these players until the inquiry is complete and they will perform community service to the benefit of local animal welfare efforts."
