A scandal surrounding widespread sexual assaults involving the Baylor University football team goes even deeper than initially thought, according to information uncovered by ESPN’s Outside the Lines (OTL) that was revealed Thursday.
Documents show that police officers in Waco, Texas, along with head football coach Art Briles and other university officials, were aware of at least some of the physical and sexual assault allegations made against numerous players but did not take disciplinary action or fully investigate all allegations and, in some instances, even covered up information.
The Fort Worth Star-Telegramreported on Thursday that the university is considering firing Briles.
