Greg Louganis, a former Olympic diving champion, was quoted in a published report as saying he was disappointed that he would not be an analyst for NBC during the Olympics. NBC said he never was offered the job, nor did he show any interest in it.

The New York Post reported that the network had decided against using Louganis as a diving commentator. The Post said Louganis, who announced in 1994 that he was gay and disclosed last year that he had AIDS, had let it be known that he was eager to work the Olympics for NBC.
