A group of former Michigan players and staff members have started an online petition — “In Defense of Bo” — through the “For Those Who Stayed” alumni group in an attempt to defend the legacy of late UM football coach Bo Schembechler.
This comes as a response to a news conference last Thursday during which former Michigan football players Daniel Kwiatkowski and Gilvanni Johnson and Matt Schembechler, Bo Schembechler’s son, shared the sexual abuse they endured during medical exams with former football team doctor Dr. Robert Anderson.
Their accounts do not jibe with former players who started the online petition late Monday.
