Given there are multiple athletes coming forward, I find it hard to believe that coaches didn't suspect something. The timing of several of them leaving/retiring only furthers my suspicions.

Martha and Bela both knew. Jordyns coach walked in a room while Nassar was doing his “treatment” and just laughed and walked out of the room. Girls were talking to each other about treatment he was giving them and they all tough it’s weird. I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of other coaches knew tbh...
Not that I don’t believe you, because I can’t fathom how they didn’t know, but where was it ever revealed that Martha and Bela knew, jordyn’s coach laughed and the girls talked amongst themselves?
*unless it’s written in Aly’s book, in which case don’t tell me because it better be one of my Christmas presents

No, she wasn't. I believe she was invited as a guest of honour and was handing out medals and prizes. She's been training for about 2 or so months now, we'll probably see her compete in the spring.You can really tell how much experience a gymnast has by the way they execute their routines. Vika does it skill after skill and takes her time that's why her beam looks effortless (her Arabian was gorgeous and didn't had a deep landing). I do think she should change that front tuck to and Onodi or Kolesnikova because those ankles still look weak. Endurance and those ankles are her major stumbling blocks for now but there's still time. Is Aliya competing too? I saw her instagram post and people were wishing her the best of luck...
I believe she said her goal was all 4 apparatuses in the spring at Russian nationals, which blows my mind less than 1 year after having a baby.No, she wasn't.

Maggie Nichols says Larry Nassar sexually abused her | SI.com
Maggie comes out at the 4th national team member who was sexually assaulted and says she was the first to report to USAG in summer 2015. They did nothing and he was still allowed to treat athletes. They also tried to keep her and her family/coaches quiet.
One of the first comments I saw on the article was along the lines of "I wonder if this had anything to do with her not making the Olympic team over another member." I'm not sure i'd buy into that with her injury/recovery, but it definitely makes you think.
