Unfortunate news has come to light tonight. Messages from Assistant Coach Ethan Cook to recruit Robert Jewell have been exposed to the media. In multiple messages, Cook threatened Jewell to come to Nicholls State or he would release his entire families information to the public, including his pet hamster Hammy.

There's more. Over suspicion of Cook potentially having access to this type of information, his phone was checked by police. There disturbing images, including the names of all of Jewell's family members and unspeakable plans to get him and Hammy to come to the University of Nicholls State, were revealed.
