Thanks, I hadn't seen the Sopel & Boynton stuff.
Was he saying they all knew of assault allegations or that something happened between the player and the video coach?
They may have just been aware of rumours of a sexual encounter and thought it was consensual. That doesn't justify the homophobic bullying, but their punishment and condemnation should be appropriate to what they knew.
I can see now there's a likelihood they knew it wasn't consentual.
