EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. - Several women who allegedly had sex with Minnesota Vikings players on two chartered cruise boats on Oct. 6 were flown in from Georgia, according to reports cited by the Minneapolis Star Tribune newspaper Tuesday.

The newspaper said local police have been discussing the reports with Atlanta police. Crew members on the boats told police that several women who had sex with the players were flown in, the Star Tribune reported, citing sources close to the investigation.

The Star Tribune said it interviewed three more of the 17 Vikings on Monday whose names were on a list given to police and team officials by the boat company. Defensive end Lance Johnstone and safeties Ken Irvin and Willie Offord refused to comment to the Star Tribune if they were on the boat or not.

Others on the list given to police included quarterback Daunte Culpepper, offensive tackle Bryant McKinnie, cornerback Fred Smoot, defensive tackle Kevin Williams, tight end Jermaine Wiggins, running back Moe Williams, wide receivers Nate Burleson, Troy Williamson, Travis Taylor and Koren Robinson, cornerback Ralph Brown and safety Darren Sharper. They all refused to comment about the alleged incidents.

Running back Mewelde Moore confirmed to the Star-Tribune that he was on the cruise but said he didn't see any sexual activity.

On Monday, Vikings owner Zygi Wilf announced that he had hired a former FBI agent as the team's new Director of Security after meeting with NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue.

Former agent Dag Sohlberg has been the team's liaison with NFL Security for five years, but was not a full-time employee.

Wilf requested a face-to-face meeting with Tagliabue as the Vikings deal with allegations of player drunkenness and sexual misconduct on a charter cruise on Lake Minnetonka on Oct. 6.

The men met Sunday morning at a private airfield near Chicago before the team's 28-3 road loss to the Bears. Tagliabue flew back to New York after the meeting.

"The commissioner emphasized to me that I inherited an organization that was inadequately structured and staffed," Wilf said, "and that we must correct that to ensure the highest standards of team operations, including discipline, accountability, strong oversight and internal communications."

The security director will probably be the first of several additions to the front office. Wilf said he as also looking for a "senior executive with deep NFL and outside experience."

Wilf said the commissioner's coming from New York to Chicago just for the meeting was an indication of the NFL's commitment to the Vikings.

"It goes to show you how important the NFL sees this matter and sees how important it is that this organization be directed in the proper manner for the future, and I really appreciated his advice," Wilf said.
