Frankly, how did he not know about everything? His skills coach knew and asked for a police report. His assistant coaches knew. At least some players knew. HR knew. Was he completely disengaged?
Again, why would he not at least say he knew there were issues and that’s why he was forced out, but he didn’t know the level? He misled the press. “Legally” he was not obliged to say anything. So he should have said either the full truth or nothing at all. Instead, he deflected attention away from himself.

We've already chatted about this. I don't know how much more effort I'm willing to give to this. I was correcting someone, no need to steer the convo back onto a topic we've already discussed. Agree to disagree.

Fair enough, felt personal. I'm not trying to defend him, I'm trying to provide perspective and the context in the report. I'm fine with him being fired. I believe he needs to be punished. I don't believe he's blameless or that he did nothing wrong.
Lot of talk around here over the past year and some about how facts matter. But there are lots of things being said here that aren't factual, even bringing up guys who aren't mentioned in the report (not you doing it, that I've seen). That's why I responded to "he said he hadn't heard of the guy," which maybe you meant he said he didn't know of the allegations.
We're good.
