Documents show warnings years ago about NC State trainer
Top North Carolina State sports officials, including the athletic director, knew of allegations of inappropriate physical contact with male athletes against sports medicine director Robert M. Murphy Jr. for several years before anyone raised concerns with the school's Title IX office, according to documents obtained by ESPN.
The former NC State Title IX deputy coordinator told investigators she recalled "having a what-the-f--- moment" when she learned of a 2019 memo, which contained concerns raised by athletic department staff about Murphy's behavior. The memo had been buried in a folder for three years while he remained on the job.
