one wrestler said he told Jordan directly about the abuse.

Someone told me directly that this wrestler is a pedophile.

"Albuquerque. See, I can do it, too. Snorkel."

Ohio State has a lot of money.

Proving a doctors abuse is difficult.

If the abuse was not reported to him and he did not witness it (and abusers seldom do it when witnesses are watching), how is he responsible?

I agree.

Was just pointing out the similarity of the ‘charges’ etc and commenting that the method ‘worked’ once and people were outraged, now just leave out a fact or two or add some crap and people will be further outraged since it sounds similar..

Meanwhile HERO B Frank ran a male brothel (or allowed it to operate) from his basement and the Ds kept ‘promoting’ and reelecting him.

I know, basically Apples to Oranges but the trend is familiar.

When was the first complaint, when was the school notified?
This ‘should have known’ is just crap.

“it was common knowledge that Strauss showered regularly with the students and inappropriately touched them during appointments?
And nothing done about it and Strauss has died? An allegation that at least is 24 years old that Jordan should have done something that remains to be proven what exactly it is that he should have done 24 years ago.
Jordan was an assistant coach? Who was the head coach? There were others that would have had more responsibility? Head coach, director, others? It was common knowledge and nothing done about it? Absolutely ridiculous.It’s shot full of holes.

It’s their own damned fault if they put up with it . . . IMHO!!!!

That was my first thought; you mean that no wrestler ever cleaned the doc's clock, or that they were all queer so no harm?

He was a 2X national champ, a great wrestler, as his sons and nephews.

Of course...Jordan taking flak for the misdeeds of others, conveniently, just after he pokes Rosenstein in the eye over misguided and contrived investigations at the FBI and DOJ.

And Jordan did mention that his staff was threatened by Rosenslime.

Fake news. Even the lightest weight class could have kicked the doctor’s butt. I know I would have snapped him like a twig if the doc did anything inappropriate. My coach would have dragged him down the mountain. The stones are like razor blades.

I guess what counts the most is the record of the OSU Wrestling Team back then...

Yet another sign that the LIBERAL LEFT is RUNNING OUT of ROAD.

This will GO NOWHERE. It's too late.. the ship is sinking and there's a plethora of rats on it.
