Loyola University Chicago will internally investigate complaints made against women's basketball coach Sheryl Swoopes following a mass exodus of players from the program, the school announced Friday.
Ten of the team's 12 returning players have transferred or put in requests to be released from their scholarships, according to the Chicago Tribune. The mass departures came a year after five players transferred following the 2014-15 season.
The Loyola Phoenix reported, citing sources close to the program, that some team members elected to leave because they took issue with Swoopes' treatment of individual players.
