Two More Former Players Accuse Coach Of 'Lesbian Baiting'
http://www.365gay.com/Newscon05/12/121305paBB.htm

Two more former players on Penn State's women's basketball team have come forward to accuse coach Rene Portland of making disparaging comments about lesbians.

Courtney Wicks, who played on the Lady Lions from 1996 - 1997, and Cindy Davies who played for Penn State in 1980, say that they also heard Portland make accusations about lesbians.

Davies who is a lesbian and Wicks who has a lesbian sister made the allegations on ESPN in a program looking into allegations made by former player Jennifer Harris.

Harris, who is not gay, has filed suit with the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission naming Portland, the university, and Athletic Director Tim Curley as defendants. (story)

make out in front of his camcorder.

3. It really pisses me off that college aged kids have to put up with
this kind of crap from their COACHES. Particularly in women's basketball. :grr:
