Maybe Jackie thought he was a member of Phi Kappa Psi, but in reality he wasn't?
This doesn't tell us much.
I know chapters that have taken "underground pledges" when those pledges couldn't actually participate because of grades, first-semester freshman status, etc.
All I'm saying is that it's fascinating to me how everyone was so quick to say how awful this fraternity chapter is, and now in a matter of hours and a few news stories later, they're saying how the chapter is completely innocent and Jackie is a liar.
And wasn't there another alleged victim who came forward this week about being raped at the same fraternity house decades ago?
ETA: Question… did Phi Kappa Psi make a public statement prior to Rolling Stone retracting their statements/article?

Yes, there is another victim from UVA and she has spoken out. She's not alleged, she's a victim, her rapist was eventually caught and confessed. But yes, it was decades ago, so not seeing how that is relevant as evidence that Jackie's allegation must be true.
I think Phi Psi made some kind of statement but it wasn't much, why?
