Two, among players it might of been known, but it's also the responsibility of the employer to hear these claims and act accordingly. I guess they could have done more, but it gets pretty close to victim blaming if we go down that road. This guy was in a position of power, this guy abused these players, and this guy's employers were made aware of this and ignored it. I think as an employee of any organization, it's fair to believe that abuse should be handled by the employer. And I think it's fair to say "they let this happen."
I can see a scenario where some players may rightly share some of the guilt around this, but not the responsibility. I don't think that's fair to the players who both were the victims in this case and the ones at risk of being victimized.

good points
especially with the bolded.
thanks. I should have stepped back from the immediate emotion and thought about it more logically.
