**Update: Golden cleared!** [UF basketball coach accused of sexual harassment and stalking thread]

I found a Twitter post on line before the Alligator article hit the web with a copy of the Title IX complaint dated 9/27/24; why did it take so long to become public.

 

as is always the case in these things the coverup is what gets you fired

 

I believe he knew about the former WBB coach issues and covered those up for over a year.

 

Hard to say without a timeline of steps take. Between now and then.

 

It’s like getting punched in the nuts over and over and over again. Has there ever been an athletic program that has taken on this many blows over a 5-6 year period?

 

If this turns out to be true and UF knew about it back in September then the entire athletic department and administration needs to be cleaned out. How could they continue to let him coach and be the face of Florida basketball?

 

As a criminal defense attorney, a lot is missing here for me to believe it. Very simple motive could be a woman who thought she was getting Todd’s attention, lost it, and told her sorority sisters about it. Sounds so far like all likes/messages/true paper trail documents have not been produced.

As a girl dad, I fully support a full investigation. As an attorney who has personally been able to disprove allegations like this, I hope a knee jerk reaction is not made now that it’s public.

 

If there was it was probably one that won 4 national championships in 3 years...

 

It's going to blow up and will have to addressed somehow.

 

Well one thing is for certain, the Napier annoy isn’t front and center now. Almost like it was strategic.

 

"In order to comply with federal law, UF can’t comment on or confirm any Title IX inquiries, complaints or investigations, according to a UF spokesperson."

 

It appeared to be a redacted and truncated, partial copy of the Title IX Notice that only a few people would have had. Specifically, I think, only the people in the investigation, and the investigators. Seems that someone wanted it published.

 

Yes, Fuchs needs to take a firehose to the Athletic department. This stuff is relentless!?!!

 

Yes this seems to be an extremely dumb thing to do, and Golden doesn't strike me as a dumb guy.

 

This being a Title IX issue, does that mean the women involved are UF athletes?

 

You will also, undoubtedly, have noticed several buzzwords used in direct quotes in The Alligator story too.

 

My first thought as well. Then again men are often fecked up by little head.

 

Not necessarily. Students. Maybe employees. I'm not a Title IX expert though.

 

The way I read it is the Alligator spoke to two girls who are speaking for the rest. To get to the magnitude the Alligator is suggesting, there is almost no chance there is not proof other than their statements. Sure, there are always outliers to odds/cases but this many people knew about it and no one saved a shred of evidence? Seems off. For all we know, a mountain of evidence is in the administration’s hands and he is screwed. But based on what we know now, I wouldn’t even suspend him pending investigation.
