A former Indiana University men’s basketball player has come forward with allegations of inappropriate exams conducted by a former team physician in the 1990s. The player claims he was subjected to “inappropriate prostate and rectal exams” by Dr. Brad Bomba Sr., and that this was a common practice for all basketball players assigned to Bomba. Indiana University has responded by launching an independent investigation conducted by the law firm Jones Day. The university aims to determine the facts related to the physical exams, whether the conduct was appropriate or within the standard of care, and who within the medical and athletic departments were aware of the situation. The university has emphasized its commitment to integrity, ethics, and accountability in handling the allegations. Jones Day has set up a phone number and email for anyone willing to provide information for the investigation, allowing individuals to remain anonymous. Indiana University has stated that it will abide by the findings of the investigation and take any necessary actions. As the review is ongoing, the university has refrained from further comments on the matter. This story is expected to be updated as more information becomes available. Copyright 2024 WDRB Media.
