USA Gymnastics, the organization that develops the Olympic team, repeatedly failed to report allegations of sexual abuse of underage gymnasts by coaches to authorities, according to an investigative report by the Indianapolis Star?that was posted on Thursday. Mario Edwards Jr. Jersey .The organization, which boasts over 120,000 gymnasts at 3,000 gyms, had a policy of dismissing allegations as hearsay and filing them away unless they came directly from a victim or a victims parents, the report said. Two former USA Gymnastics executives testified under oath to this policy as part of a 2013 lawsuit filed by a coachs victim.Legally, however, suspected child abuse must be reported to authorities.The 2013 lawsuit, filed in Georgia by the daughter of Lisa Ganser, involves a coach named William McCabe. According to the Star, USA Gymnastics was alerted to the possibility that McCabe was abusing children as far back as 1998. An owner of a gym from which he was fired sent a letter to USA Gymnastics saying that McCabe should be locked in a cage before someone is raped.In court filings obtained the Star, USA Gymnastics said allegations made against McCabe by two gym owners were third-hand hearsay and said the organization had not received a complaint from a member athlete or parent of a member athlete.USA Gymnastics also argued, according to the Star, that mandatory reporting laws did not apply to it because it was an organization, not an individual.According to the Star, Ganser enrolled her daughter in a McCabe-run gym in 2002 and, more than a year later, received an anonymous packet with allegations against McCabe, including complaints that had been sent to USA Gymnastics. She contacted USA Gymnastics and was told there were no complaints against McCabe, according to the newspaper.In 2006, Ganser found disturbing emails on her then-11-year-old daughters computer. She called the FBI. Investigators learned that the emails had been sent by McCabe, who was pretending to be an Olympic star, the newspaper reported.McCabe was eventually accused of molesting girls as young as fifth-graders. He pleaded guilty in 2006 to sexual exploitation of children and is serving a 30-year sentence.Although USA Gymnastics would not reveal just how many complaints it receives, the Star reported that the organization had compiled dossiers on more than 50 coaches. The contents of those files remain sealed as part of the Ganser case, but the Star has filed a motion asking to make them public. The newspaper did uncover details of four coaches, including McCabe, who were charged with child molestation or sexual exploitation.One coach, Marvin Sharp, was reported to authorities by USA Gymnastics four years after it received a detailed complaint against him, according to the Star. The former coach of the year, who had mentored multiple Olympians, was charged in federal court and then committed suicide in jail.USA Gymnastics issued a statement on Thursday responding to the Stars report.Addressing issues of sexual misconduct has been important to USA Gymnastics for many years, and the organization is committed to promoting a safe environment for its athletes, it said, in part. We find it appalling that anyone would exploit a young athlete or child in this manner, and recognize the effect this behavior can have on a persons life. USA Gymnastics has been proactive in helping to educate the gymnastics community over the years, and will continue to take every punitive action available within our jurisdiction, and cooperate fully with law enforcement.The statement concluded:?With the judge considering whether to dismiss the pending lawsuit in Georgia, there are limits on what the organization can say publicly during litigation. Nonetheless, USA Gymnastics provided the Indianapolis Star with substantial information on its policies and procedures to demonstrate the organizations commitment to the safety of its athletes within the scope of its jurisdiction and governance structure. We feel the Star left out significant facts that would have painted a more accurate picture of our efforts.Martha Karolyi, the USA national team coordinator since 2000 and a coach in the United States since she and her husband, Bela, defected from Romania in 1981, said Thursday in Rio that she hadnt read the entire news report yet.I just overheard something and I do not think the accusations are right. I dont think they are right, Karolyi told ESPNs Johnette Howard after the womens teams training session. I think USA Gymnastics is one of the most caring organizations about the children. ... But just working with USA Gymnastics for so many years, I just know how much effort is done that everything be done properly.Asked if the news would affect the Olympic team, Karolyi replied, Absolutely not.Were here at the Olympic Games. And then, if there are any other issues, we will address it afterward, she said.Mihai Brestyan, the coach of American gold medalist Aly Raisman, said Team USAs staff will try to protect the gymnasts from any distractions the report might cause.We have concerns, but we try to keep the kids away from that right now, Brestyan told ESPN. [The allegations] are a problem, but we cannot resolve that right now, here this week. Deonte Harris Jersey .C. -- Rodney Hood connected from all over the court while freshman Jabari Parker was busy swatting shots and scoring in transition. Roman Harper Jersey .C. -- When North Carolina freshman Ryan Switzer reported to training camp in August he was a little miffed to learn he was third on the depth chart at punt returner. https://www.saintsjerseyssale.com/433f-d...sey-saints.html . -- The Missouri Tigers might not have a roster full of superstars. ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- The Denver Broncos trust veteran running back Justin Forsett can play against Tennessee on Sunday after being claimed off waivers this week.Theyre not as bold when it came to quarterback Trevor Siemians chances.Id still call him day to day, coach Gary Kubiak said Wednesday after Siemians first on-field work since spraining his left foot against Kansas City on Nov. 27.Siemian split snaps at the walkthrough with rookie Paxton Lynch, who recorded his first career win at Jacksonville last weekend despite a 104-yard passing performance .Im feeling better, said Siemian, who demurred when asked whether hes confident hell start against the Titans.He said hes done some running and tested his orthotic-fitted foot, but only with the athletic trainers so far.So, fingers crossed, moving forward, Siemian said. Taking it one day at a time.Although Siemian was listed as limited, Kubiak said his starting QB was able to do everything he wanted him to.Admittedly, that wasnt much.After saying he could feel the fatigue in his team during their grinding 20-10 win over the Jaguars, Kubiak dialed back, putting his players through a series of walkthroughs at their indoor practice facility on a snowy day in Denver.Theyll have a regular practice Thursday, which should provide more answers about Siemians status.Playing behind a porous offensive line, Siemian has struggled to stay healthy all season.The Broncos (8-4) have a brutal stretch ahead. In addition to the division-leading Titans (6-6), they face the Patriots, Chiefs and Raiders, a trio that has a combined 29-7 record.If Siemians not 100 percent, he may sit this one out, too.You dont want to be out there and hurting the team, Siemian said. So, thats the goal: any time youre coming back from injury, you want to make sure youre not just out there playing but playing well.Forsett not only reinforces the Broncos battered backfield but he provides an excellent addition in protecting the passer.Kubiak called it a blessing that Forsett was available after Kapri Bibbs (ankle) joined C.J. Anderson (knee) and Andy Janovich (hand) on IR this week, leaving rookie Devontae Booker and Juwan Thompson as the only running backs still standing.Picking up players in one thing, Kubiak said, but picking up a guy who can come in, gget in your huddle today and run plays and pick up blitzes, that usually doesnt happen. Sammy Knight Jersey. .Siemian was equally stoked about the veterans arrival.Hes played a long time. He gets it. He knows this system well, Siemian said. Were not pulling him along.The Broncos literally had to pull along Booker, who gained just 35 yards on 18 carries Sunday, when his best run was a 6-yard touchdown in which left tackle Russell Okung pulled him into the end zone.Denver claimed Forsett, a ninth-year pro, off waivers from Detroit on Monday. Forsett has had his best years under Kubiak, including a Pro Bowl season in 2014 in Baltimore, when he ran for a career-best 1,266 yards and eight TDs.Its nice to walk on the field today and really didnt have a new player in a lot of ways, Kubiak said.Kubiak said Forsett will split time with Book, just like Kapri would have. Its not like hes been sitting. Hes been playing.Forsett has rushed for 136 yards on 44 carries in five games this year, two with the Lions and three with the Ravens.Kubiak is counting on Forsett also helping Booker, who has faded since Anderson got hurt in October. Hes not breaking many tackles or hitting many creases.I think the biggest thing with Devontae, a bunch got put on his plate, Kubiak said. So, I think if Justin can come in and do the things I know hes capable of doing, maybe it takes a little bit off of Book, and I think that may help in a lot of ways.Hell also help protect the QB, whoever that will be.Kubiak said he was preparing both Siemian and Lynch to start against Tennessee.While Lynch was running the show last week, Siemian had some fun, recreating Peyton Mannings famous photo from a year ago of the injured QB sitting in a hot tub with his helmet on and watching practice on his iPad.Siemian posted the photos side by side on his Twitter account.Id like to go on record that Peyton was flexing in his picture, Siemian said. Im getting a lot of heat that he looks stronger than me.
