According to the lawsuit, multiple other coaches at Kentucky witnessed Jorgensen groping swimmers or his assistants during his decade with the program. On one occasion in 2015 or 2016, the suit says, a coach reported his alleged behavior to the university's Title IX office.
Mark Howard, who had coached with Jorgensen at the University of Toledo, told the plaintiffs' attorneys that he emailed Kentucky athletic director Mitch Barnhart and the swim team's then-head coach Gary Conelly when Jorgensen was first hired as an associate head coach in 2012 to warn them about a previous alleged incident of sexual misconduct. According to the lawsuit, Howard wrote that "a former Toledo swimmer made it known to me about a sexual relationship she had with Lars [before] she had graduated. ... This is no joke at all and I cannot stomach the fact that he will be coaching women again."
