Former UFC heavyweight champion Mark Coleman was one of numerous male athletes victimized by Dr. Richard Strauss at Ohio State University, according to a report from Sports Illustrated.
In a piece entitled Why Aren’t More People Talking About the Ohio State Sex Abuse Scandal, Coleman recalls undergoing what seemed to be an inappropriate physical examination from Strauss upon his arrival on campus in 1986.
“He examined me pretty good. It was an eye-opener,” Coleman said. “I don’t want to go further than that.”
At that time, Strauss was the OSU doctor for five sports programs and the consulting physician for at least 10 others.
