They don't deserve to be coaches. Please don't until there is a tragedy to do something.

No one should have to suffer from any sort of abuse. Hopefully the resignation of Jeff will help this team begin to heal.

I went through this with them at Auburn from 2000-2002 and then I decided to leave. I'm so glad to see someone is bringing all this to light!

I knew Sam Brown and spoke with her a few times, and she is an honest person who really should be the head coach and replace the Thompson's. She as the other athletes have been around gymnastics their whole lives and know good coaching from bad. PSU needs to have the NCAA come in and investigate because as shown before in football and recently in women's hockey the athletic directors support child abuse.

Penn State continues to not report facts, identify problems, discover root causes, and take effective long term corrective action. Penn State administration hides behind 'We Are..Penn State, which only continues to damage and diminish Penn State.

PSU should receive serious consequences for the failure to protect young athletes. I hope all the girls are home with their families and safe!

After reading tne Colegian article I was appalled that Penn State (I.e. Athletic Director Barbour) is allowing this to happen. As a former college assistant coach at Utah State University and also a PSU grad I understand the pressure these athletes are under to start with and the demands of this coaching staff is beyond reasonable. PSU NEEDS to make a change.
