Athletes: Chair Of Freedom Caucus Was the Paterno of OSU

When he was a wrestling coach at THEEEEEEEE Ohio State University, Jim Jordan allegedly looked the other way from the systematic sexual assault of the athletes on the team:
Ohio Republican Rep. Jim Jordan is accused of brushing aside rampant sexual abuse in Ohio State University’s athletics department during his time there, according to a new report from NBC.
Several former Ohio State wrestlers say Jordan, who before becoming one of the House’s most conservative lawmakers was a champion college wrestler and assistant wrestling coach at Ohio State from 1986 to 1994, failed to stop the team doctor from molesting student athletes.
The university has been conducting an investigation into Dr. Richard Strauss, who died in 2005, for repeated reports of sexual assault and rape. According to student testimony, Strauss is estimated to have sexually assaulted or raped at least 1,500 — and possibly up to 2,000 — athletes at Ohio State between 1978 through 1998.
Jordan has repeatedly denied knowing anything about Strauss’s conduct. But his denial doesn’t add up, several of Jordan’s former athletes told NBC:
Three former wrestlers told NBC News that it was common knowledge that Strauss showered regularly with the students and inappropriately touched them during appointments, and said it would have been impossible for Jordan to be unaware; one wrestler said he told Jordan directly about the abuse.
One student, Dunyasha Yetts, a wrestler at Ohio State in 1993, said he went to Strauss for a thumb injury and instead had his pants pulled down. Yetts said he and his teammates told Jordan multiple times about Strauss.
“For God’s sake, Strauss’s locker was right next to Jordan’s, and Jordan even said he’d kill him if he tried anything with him,” Yetts told NBC.
Well, once his political career ends, at least he’s a top candidate to become president of Michigan State.
Don’t worry though, one of Jordan’s colleagues has a very convincing explanation:
Oh well then.
