Trainer Makes Claims
Trainer Jamie Whited’s sexual harassment claims against the Tennessee men’s athletic department didn’t begin when quarterback Peyton Manning “mooned” her in the locker room.
Records released Tuesday by the university suggest Whited, 28, endured a long list of slights, affronts, embarrassments and, possibly, threats within the Volunteer athletic complex dating to 1990.
She reached a $300,000 settlement with the university last week, and agreed to resign. The school announced the agreement late Friday without disclosing the extent of her complaints.
President Joe Johnson confirmed Tuesday the settlement will be paid with revenues from the athletic department, not taxpayer dollars.
