Louisville isn’t the only school dealing with allegation of inappropriate recruitment tactics. Small Christian school Nyack College has its own recruitment scandal ongoing. But instead of using sex to recruiting students to join the team, Nyack College players were being recruited into the porn industry.
At least that what members of the Softball team alleged after a visit from porn star Allie Haze. The three girls say that Coach Kurt Ludwigsen invited Haze to be a guest speaker. The girls didn’t receive just a speech for Haze but a recruitment opportunity into porn. That Coach Ludwigsen suggested that him and Haze could get them into the industry. The girls say that Haze and Ludwigsen harassed them throughout her visit. The allegation against Ludwigsen and Haze do not stop there.
Among the allegations were claims that Ludwigsen made sexually explicit comments and touched them inappropriately, including licking their ears, directing them to sit on his lap, lying on top of them, kissing their lips and faces, and punching one of them in the breasts for perceived batting errors. The suits alleged that Ludwigsen organized an underage drinking outing in which he directed players to wear cocktail dresses and dance with male strangers. They said he also offered to assist players in gaining employment in the adult entertainment industry and brought porn star Allie Haze to a practice for life-counseling sessions.
I have no clue why you would invite a porn star to a Christian College. Seems like a disaster in the making. These allegation are terrible and if true Ludwigsen should not only be fired but arrested. The allegations are best just harassment they really are assault.
