The latest lawsuit against Baylor alleges that due to the school’s laissez-faire policy on punishing football student-athletes for sexual assaults, at least 31 football players were involved in over 50 acts of rape from 2011 to 2015, and goes further to address recruiting improprieties involving the school’s hostess program.

This Title IX inquiry uncovered flaws in the senior leadership’s actions and Baylor’s student conduct process, and even staff members acting to hinder or discourage reporting acts of sexual assault or dating violence. With apparent involvement from athletics staff members to cover for football players, Baylor could be facing rather significant penalties from the NCAA.
