Florida Basketball Coach Faces Title IX Investigation Amid Harassment Allegations

Florida men's basketball coach Todd Golden confirmed he is involved in a school investigation and is considering defamation claims against his accusers. The inquiry follows allegations of sexual harassment, exploitation, stalking, and cyberstalking, as reported by the Independent Florida Alligator. The allegations include unwanted advances and inappropriate conduct on social media. Golden, who recently signed a contract extension, continues to coach the team while the investigation is ongoing. This marks the third serious allegation against a head coach during athletic director Scott Stricklin's tenure.
