A lot more than just shouting at them. Sexual abuse too. Sad victim blaming.

Where did your coach touch ya?

The probe by former U.S. Attorney General Sally Yates and the King & Spalding law firm uncovered verbal and emotional abuse and sexual misconduct, including a pattern of "sexually charged comments, unwanted sexual advances and touching and coercive sexual intercourse."
