Surviving Ohio State

I am not an alumni, but I have been a fan of tOSU since the Ten Year War. I feel like I have been punched in the stomach. Yes, I knew there was some scandal about Jim Jordan, the wrestling team, and the team doctor but never had any idea just how extensive the criminal behavior was or how long it went on. Worse, I did not realize how the school has dealt with the scandal.

I don't know if I will be able to feel again the joy a National Championship has brought me in the past. Even if I can, certainly I can never forget what I have learned from this film.

I highly recommend every Buckeye fan to watch. It will change you.

What stands out in watching this is how time after time, responsible parties did nothing for children in their care. The students didnt know how to react to the situation they found themselves in. The adults did, but buried it. Embarrassing beyond belief for OSU, as they continue to fight taking full accountability. No honor for any Buckeyes here.

The coaches that deny knowing are less than believable. The administrators who admit anything seem to do so begrudgingly. Those students who were molested had their lives changed not only by a predator, but also by people who knew better and did nothing.

For athletes going to the ohio state university they never could have imagined the dangerous dr they were supposed to trust. Dr strauss abused many male students for decades all while the school covered it up and from my understanding still does to this day. Your heart breaks for these brave men who come to tell their horrific stories and the impacts on their lives. It is a must watch and these brave men need to be heard loud as can be for all those watching truly sicking horrific and unimaginable just how long that abuse took place and how many people knew it but never once cared to protect those students.

Excellent documentary about horrific sexual abuse and the university that cared more about its reputation than protecting their students. Rep. Jim Jordan was one of the people who knew what was going on for years and did nothing. If this film helps to bring him down and effects real justice for the many victims, it will be a job well done. This is a highly emotional documentary that will leave most viewers aghast and angry. Bravos for the brave men that have come forward to share their painful stories with the world, and for standing up against the gross injustice inflicted upon them by the Ohio State University.

This is a horrifying story of over twenty years of abuse. You wonder how something like this happens and how it could have been ongoing for decades. This documentary lays out the story very well and the horror of the handling of the reported abuse that makes it more horrific for the hundreds of survivors.

I appreciate that this documentary told the story in a respectful way and had interviews with survivors who told their own story of their experiences. The pacing was very good in this professionally edited production.

Although this is a tough topic to hear about; this is a good documentary.
