The difference between the colleges and the NFL is that it's not just based on words, but actual evidence. Also, in regards to the Columbia rape case (the Mattress Case), the defendant OFFERED to show his text messages which would have ELIMINATED any guilt he had which in the end he didn't need anyway - but he still OFFERED his text messages because he knew he was innocent. Brady is doing the OPPOSITE. Nuf said. End of debate.

The NFL is not a court of law, but if it was, it would DEMAND Brady to show his text messages and emails. So if anything Brady is lucky they are only finding it extremely probable he was involved.

Brady refusing to show his text messages and emails doesn't just look bad - it's basically an implied admission of guilt.

Think of it this way - the first thing Aaron did after being involved in the murders was throw away guns, DESTROY HIS CELL PHONE, and hire cleaning ladies. Basically - try to avoid showing direct evidence.

No, actually you're missing one very key component here.  The discrepency in ball PSI, still remains unaccounted for, at least, the severity of the discrepency.  Exponent was unable to account for it (which is probably why the investigation continued).  And, in the mattress girl case evidence from that kids texts were EXCLUDED.  And he was still exonerated.  But I digress.  The same level of evidence is required for both types of cases.  Look it up, if you don't believe me (It was changed recently due to integrity breaches) ProFootballTalk discussed it months ago, and I've read about several Title IX cases.

Again, Brady not 'giving his phone' (not just showing his texts, they wanted his phone...sorry, not happening), isn't an admission of anything, sure it makes him look bad.  But, it's not proof.  And Aaron didn't throw away guns, his wife did.

Exactly. The kid was still exonerated WITHOUT his texts, yet he was WILLING to show them his texts because it would have 100% guaranteed his non-guilt. He had nothing to hide. On the other hand, Brady clearly has things to hide on his phone. If you think he's not showing his phone because of dik pics then that's denial. Brady KNOWS they can't go through his phone unless he does it, so Brady is fine settling on "probably" did it. However, if the NFL was like the court of law and got access to text messages I am willing to bet the evidence would be damning.

You also have to account in the fact Brady has been caught cheating before (spygate).
