Mo, Galen, and Alberto, all knew more than one month ago about the allegations.
Yes, THEY knew about the allegations, but the public didn't. They knew about the allegations before the Hoka and Pre meets, too, and it didn't affect their schedule. It only became an issue when the ProPublica/BBC story finally came out, which is what led to Mo not racing in Birmingham. But, again, this doesn't explain Rupp's scratch, because the allegations were already public knowledge when he entered the race.
