well not really. You have to speculate - even though it seems obvious - why she was fired. It is not speculation that Schubert:
1) Hired a coach he knew was under investgiation for inappropriate behavior.
2) Was asked to fire the coach repeatedly.
I too want to know why was Schubert fired from US swimming.
I went to Mission Viejo to watch Schubert work in the late 70's (they swam against the East Germans). Anyway, he was a hero to me and after reading about all the allegations, a big sigh along with me shaking my head is how I feel. I wish the victims prayers to heal and hope that he didn't cover-up the problem. Please keep us posted.
