Men college wrestlers being sexually molested by a doctor???? It’s their own damned fault if they put up with it . . . IMHO!!!!

That was my first thought too. If the Dr. touched me I'd have knocked his teeth down his throat. It's one thing if you're talking about 10 year olds but college MEN? Give me a break.

That is true, the only thing is that msm gets its marching orders from them.

Now it seems AL people have fallen hook, line, and sinker for their new “Democratic” senator. Just like in the olden days!

It’s the responsibility of college age victims who have the actual knowledge of abuse to call in the forces of the law.

They also have the option of consulting with lawyers and filing lawsuits.

It amazes me that these men would complain about anything.

How would they even recognize any such abuse? To me, a wrestling match looks like "voluntary sexual abuse" from start to finish. :-P

He’s not even accused of doing it, they’re accusing him of knowing, not even that , he “should have known”.

Didn’t ‘they’ get rid of another wrestling coach GOPe that way?

Dennis Hastert?

Sounds like the old ‘round up the usual suspects...this ‘charge’ worked once, lets try it again..

What are the odds of a Former Speaker and possible Future Speaker being wrestling coaches accused of sexual misconduct?

Guess about the same as two members of a ‘secret’ College Social club running against each other for Pres.

Granted MANY S&B alumns went on to ‘big’ things in the Intel Community...

Former head coach Russ Hellickson, Jordan's mentor, said in a recent video — made by Mike DiSabato, a former wrestler — that Hellickson had told Strauss that he was being too "hands on” with students.

So, the head coach knew about it and handled it in an ineffective manner. This situation does not put any direct responsibility on Jordan even if he had some knowledge of it.

Can’t imagine how “inappropriate” you could get with an adult male college wrestler without them beating the dude up.

If they are big tough wrestlers, how about just kick their ass?

I wouldn't worry too much Jim, the other side doesn't even know which bathroom to use so how can they tell which sex is abusing the other sexes?

Shocking, I tell ya.

Who would have thought that the Bolsheviks in the democratic party would have dug up a sex scandal. Again! I am so [not] shocked. Next we will have the resurrection of Stormy and I will be shocked so numb and confused that I will probably end up as a conservative Republican supporting Jordan and Trump.

“Please leave me out of it” is where I would be as well.

I imagine if Jordan knew of this he would have done something but, the timing of this is pretty peculiar.

It took these guys 30+ years to speak up and more than a decade since the supposed molester died?

Nope...and maybe the guy did molest them but, now? Still nope...

Move on

Don’t comment on Alabama unless you know what you are talking about. Roy Moore was the worst possible candidate and got the nomination by the efforts of Mcconnel. Doug Jones wull be gone in the next election.
