The Big Ten is morally on fire
http://www.espn.com/college-sports/story...ctor-abuse
Quote:At least 177 men were sexually abused by an Ohio State team doctor who died years ago, the university said Friday as it released findings from a law firm that investigated the accusations and concluded that school leaders knew at the time.
The claims about Richard Strauss span from 1979-1997 -- nearly his entire time at Ohio State -- and involve athletes from at least 16 sports, plus his work at the student health center and his off-campus clinic.
Of the 177 men, 145 were identified as athletes from a list of sports that includes wrestling, gymnastics, swimming and diving, soccer, lacrosse, hockey, track and field, baseball, cross country, fencing, volleyball, tennis, football, cheerleading and golf.
According to the report, more than half of the abuse reports came from athletes assigned to the practice facility where Strauss worked as a team physician.
Many of the men who have spoken publicly said they were groped and inappropriately touched during physical exams and ogled in locker rooms. The athletes also discussed Strauss' behavior with one another, referring to him with nicknames like "Dr. Jelly Paws."
...
One student, a 14-year-old high school wrestler at the time of Strauss' abuse, told investigators Strauss molested him and other minors during the course of the doctor's work with high schools and an Ohio State wrestling camp. No other such accounts were included in unredacted portions of the report.
This is ridiculous. Maryland, Penn State, Michigan State, and now Ohio State all caught with either organized pedophilia or culpability in the death of student athletes. Maybe the Big Ten "ticket tax" revenue gaming system is reflective of the deeper culture in the Big Ten: corrupt and filthy to the core.

RE: The Big Ten is morally on fire
I’m not surprised. They crucified UofL for young men looking at T&A. Big Ten schools line up to rape and molest women, men and boys and nothing happens. Maybe we should have had someone from Penn State or Ohio State hold a class on how to properly molest children and rape women so that it falls within the guidelines of the NCAA.
Take note that the NCAA is located in the heart of The Big Ten. Enough said

While those two examples are certainly very ugly there were no reports of anyone being forced into such behavior. In other words there were no victims, as everyone who participated were volunteers.
While its all very immoral, I think sexually forcing yourself onto many, many inferior subjects or causing a persons death is far worse than anything that has occurred in the ACC. Then those who are in positions to do something about such abuse, look the other way and allowing these horrible folks to continue abusing innocent young ones. These sort of things seem to be running rampant in the BIG. Its rather sad that you would try to equate the situations.

Raping children is far worse than hiring prostitutes. Even prison inmates understand that.
