Masseuse Robyn Bassani denies Ohio State report that she targeted football players

View descriptionShare

A Cleveland-area massage therapist accused by Ohio State of targeting football players for sexual encounters has denied those allegations in a pair of interviews. Speaking in a 20-minute radio interview on Cleveland’s FM-WMMS, Robyn Bassani, 41, said that while she did have sexual relationships with two Ohio State football players, she was not “acting for her own sexual gratification” as a report released by the university alleged. She said the nature of the allegations OSU made against her “feels like their way of staying in charge of the situation and making me the villain so they could keep their hands clean.” According to the 15-page report released Thursday, Bassani had consensual sex with five football players. None were minors, and 20 other players reported having received non-sexual massages from Bassani, who disputed those numbers and said she had sexual relations with only two players.
