Done. Thanks for sending a message to those in power that this issue won't go away.

I'd like to petition to have a "ti" added to the thread title.

You want her to add, "and was molested by her coach, Rick Butler".

OK, leaving aside the specific Rick Butler issue because I don't really know anything about it, do you think that there can be any rehabilitation for sex offenders? Or are they to be forever banned from everything no matter how long they go without re-offending?

OK, leaving aside the specific Rick Butler issue because I don't really know anything about it, do you think that there can be any rehabilitation for sex offenders? Or are they to be forever banned from everything no matter how long they go without re-offending? 1. You have over 31,000 posts on a volleyball forum and you don't know anything about the Rick Butler situation? That's like having 100k posts on a PETA forum and not knowing anything about "the Michael Vick situation" 2. Yes, I do think sex offenders can be rehabilitated but that would require acknowledgement, apologizing, counseling & various other steps towards forgiveness and rehabilitation. RB has never done any of this and even though an Illinois judge called him a sexual predator because of the testimony of THREE victims all claiming to be under 18 and as young as 15. He has never denied sleeping with all 3 of them multiple times but claims that they were over 18 and therefore there was nothing wrong with it. Even though he was clearly an authority figure. Do you want to know the big tell here: never once has RB sued any of the victims for defamation, slander or libel. You know why? Because he would be deposed under oath in any civil trial. Taking the 5th would Be tricky when answering opposing counsels questions if you are the one suing!

You want her to add, "and was molested by her coach, Rick Butler". Why promote a club that you publicly hate? "nationally ranked club program Sports Performance"

SPVB is nationally ranked, and she played for them. Both are true, but that doesn't negate her cause in my opinion.

If she were to leave it off, wouldn't that be suspicious? It is part of her resume, so let it be. I almost wonder, in hindsight, if she wishes it weren't. What a sad situation for any victim to have to relive, on an annual basis. Maybe one of these years, AAU and USAV will get it right, RB will not be at nationals, and there won't be an annual RB thread. Hang in there, Sarah.

She's 50 years old--does it matter where she played club? I see why she'd mention playing D-1 (even if it was in the Dark Ages) and awards at that level, but I would play up stuff much more recent (and relevant). The mention of Sports Performance as is is bad. It certainly makes it seem as if she is fine with everything--when she is not.
