A Baylor University graduate who says she was raped by football players in 2013 sued the university Friday. Her lawsuit includes an allegation that 31 Baylor football players committed at least 52 acts of rape, including five gang rapes, between 2011 and 2014 — an estimate that far exceeds the number previously provided by school officials. Those figures could not be independently verified Friday, and Baylor officials declined to comment on their accuracy. The woman, identified in the suit by the pseudonym Elizabeth Doe, reports being gang raped by then-Baylor football players Tre'Von Armstead and Shamycheal Chatman after a party on April 18, 2013.

Nowadays, people expect colleges to babysit their students and to pay huge damages when the students’ immoral lifestyles get them into trouble. The unanswered question: Why didn’t plaintiff Doe press charges with the police? If she was really an innocent little lamb, she should have gone to city hall immediately afterwards and screamed about the crime until the cops did something.
I can clear this up for everyone.
The black players were set up and busy attending prayer meetings.
The white players are rich and did all the rapes.
I learned this from watching Law and Order: SVU.
[Baylor’s football program was a perennial loser for 5 decades, but miraculously became an NCAA Titan overnight. Hmmm, and nobody ever gave a moment to pause and ask, “how did that happen?”]
As Monty Python says, that’s certainly “a poser”.
Concur re school vs cops.
This part: ..tell police she had "consensual sex with one white male" to protect the athletes..
is both infuriating! and indicitave of the extent to which the waters have been muddied over the past few decades !
Sure, that’s why they spend money on newspaper ads supporting the program and the administration, and plotting to bring back the discredited coach.
For some, watching football is a leisure activity because football is entertaining.
For others, watching football is a religious act, because football is an idol to be worshipped and protected at any cost.
You lost me at “silver-back gorilla”. You could’ve done without that descriptor.

Baylor has a lot of alums. Some will do anything to see their team play in the big game.
I have never watched SVU but something about the title just struck me that it would be extremely PC.
I could just see single women living with their cat, watching that show and dreaming of being protected by the TV characters.
I remember many coeds throwing themselves at the football players. Rapes must be punished ... but in many instances it was the females that initiated the contacts
Lots of nuffin being did.
Agree. The college town near UCSB, Isle Vista, has numerous encounters of exchanging affection every day. Thus, “almost rape” probably happens daily.
But dancing is against the rules.
Tre’von Armistad: Black, 6’-6’’ 280 lb.
Shamycheal Chatman: Black, 6’-2” 214 lb.
These women accept no boundaries and accept no responsibility. If you want to keep your arms, don’t pet the wild animals. Fine, we’ll put down the feral youths, but beyond that, society owes you nothing.
Yep! And working out the evidence is not made any easier by the fact that just about everyone concerned was blotto with alcohol.
The easiest advice to young women, in order to avoid sexual assault, is to stay sober. Someone wrote an article to that effect, I think on Slate Magazine, and they were attacked fiercely, and accused of crimping women's freedom.
That was ugly, false, hateful, and very very racist. I truly pray that you’re not that dark on the inside.
The dumb bastards video everything now, and then post it the internet.
“For others, watching football is a religious act, because football is an idol to be worshipped and protected at any cost.”
I concur, and I have never understood the fanaticism. I like to watch a good game as much as the next guy, but some people get carried away.
Good advice. Here's another one, "don't leave your drink unattended."
