    THIS ENTIRE THING IS BASED ON IMAGINATION. He was in his TWENTIES like the the students. He was just an newly hired assistant coach, a lowly job. The HEAD coach was informed it is claimed, then it's up to the heads of the athletic department. OF course the claim is EVERYONE knew, so he would have no need to report it. And again, if all the students knew and felt it inappropriate to the point of a sexual assault they could have brought it to a stop then by going public and they were not children. The were adults.

    I don't expect a 25 year old to be "taking care" of my 21 year old especially when they are just a lowly assistant coach. Why didn't any of them tell their parents then their parents could have "taken care" of them.

    Why is Jordan being SINGULARLY being pointed out as the cause and responsible person so off with his head. This is ridiculous but so typical of Democrats when they can't when on the issues.

    You don't know that he has anything to apologize for and assertions of "implausibility" are nothing more than utter conjecture, we don't convict people on conjecture. And your "implausibility" is based on a "everyone knew", well then why is the finger being pointed at a lowly new assault coach as being responsible.

    Sure it is. The entire thing is so obviously a smear that it's actually sad and pathetic that certain people are pushing the story. How stupid does the left actually think the American people are ?? This is the kind of stuff that kills the D chances in the midterms. Rational voters will reason that anyone who actually believes this fantasy is delusional and not qualified to hold public office.

    That's how the smear machine works. Take some kernel of truth and dishonestly build it into a scandal. The American people have seen enough of crap like this to see it for the hit job that it is.

    It is a good bet that Dennis Hastert's wrestlers and Jerry Sandusky's football players were equally formidable.

    And the smear machine continues. Hastert did not coach wrestling and Sandusky preyed on boys aged 8 - 12. The left keeps digging itself underground with this dumba$$ smear campaign and the ridiculous attempts to smear Jordan.

    A seventh former wrestler at Ohio State University has come forward to accuse Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) of turning a blind eye to alleged sexual abuse by the school’s athletic doctor several decades ago. David Range, a wrestler at the school in the late 1980s, told The Washington Post on Saturday that Jordan, the assistant wrestling coach from 1987 to 1995, was present for conversations about the alleged sexual misconduct by Richard Strauss. “Jordan definitely knew that these things were happening—yes, most definitely. It was there. He knew about it because it was an everyday occurrence,” he said. “We talked about it all the time in the locker room” while Jordan was present, he said. Jordan has been accused of covering up the alleged abuse by several former wrestlers, though he has denied ever being aware of the allegations. On Friday, he told Fox News, “Conversations in a locker room are a lot different than people coming up and talking about abuse.”

    But it sounds so ugly..........
    Accused of ignoring something that hasn't even been shown to exist.

    Let me guess, the doc felt up and inspected their junk, then put a finger in their butts

    That’s how the smear machine works. All that is needed is a bunch of irrational lemmings with TDS.

    They claim he should/must have known. Of they haven’t stated what the “known” is. Details like that don’t matter to the lemmings who believe the smear machine. Voters notice these things.

    Get a grip! Sandusky raped boys not his football players. Hasert, he abused boys as well, 14 year-olds. Both convicted. Your attempt to equate them with OSU is beyond acceptable.

    And thanks for showing yours with regard to Sandusky’s football players and especially for bringing up something totally unrelated.

    https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ag-sandusky-abused-boys-ages-8-to-17/



    Why is it that you hate filled right wingers can never stop watching the Fox network traitors and perverts and go read a FACT BASED newspaper or watch a real news channel on TV???

    No wonder why you people keep losing every debate on this forum!

    He was convicted of abusing 8 - 12 year olds. Try linking to information after the trial instead of embarrassing yourself with speculation which occurred before.
