Baylor offensive lineman Rami Hammad -- arrested on felony stalking charges Monday -- was accused last fall of sexually assaulting a student and violating a university-issued no-contact order after confronting the woman, Outside the Lines has learned.Hammad is facing felony stalking charges after his former girlfriend reported several instances from March to July in which he tracked her down, harassed her and twice physically assaulted her, including once at Baylors athletic facilities on campus.Last fall, a different woman reported to Baylors Title IX office that she had been sexually assaulted by Hammad. After Hammad confronted the woman about why he was under investigation by the Title IX office, she requested a no-contact order from the university, according to documents reviewed by Outside the Lines. She received it, but three days later, Hammad allegedly confronted her again. She and two witnesses reported that confrontation to police, but she declined to press charges, believing the Title IX office would pursue the matter, she told Outside the Lines.She additionally told Outside the Lines she was shocked and disappointed that Hammad was allowed to play in Baylors game against Texas Tech a few days later and the remainder of the season. She said hearing of the felony charges from Monday was very disheartening.This is all Baylors fault, she said. Had they taken my case slightly more seriously and put some kind of warning on him, this wouldnt have happened. ... The mannerisms that she described are so similar. Its not just something I wanted to remember.When reached by phone Wednesday, Hammad, who was suspended from team activities Tuesday, referred questions to Waco defense attorney Phil Martinez; Martinez said he had yet to meet with Hammad and could not yet comment on either allegation.Baylor coach Jim Grobe addressed Hammads suspension at the opening of practice Thursday.?Hes gonna have to straighten things out and Ive told our team over and over and over: Guys, theres certain things you get involved involved in, were gonna turn it over to the right people, Grobe said. I feel like its in the right process right now and the right people, people that know how to deal with these things, are dealing with it. We step out of the way. I can handle a lot of things -- I can handle if you miss a class, you sleep through a class, were late to weight room or you miss a meeting, things like that -- but when were talking about bad misbehavior, guys, youre on your own. Were going to turn it over to the right people and get out of the way.Baylor has faced widespread criticism for its handling of reports of sexual assault and violence involving football players. In late May, after the universitys board of regents received a presentation from law firm Pepper Hamilton, whom it had hired to review the schools sexual assault response and Title IX practices, the regents announced the demotion of president Ken Starr to chancellor, the suspension with intent to terminate of football coach Art Briles and probation for athletic director Ian McCaw. Within weeks, McCaw resigned, Briles was fired and Starr stepped down from all leadership positions at Baylor but stayed on as a law professor. Two other athletic department officials were fired.Last month, at Big 12 media days, Grobe sparked outrage when he spoke about the universitys recent history: We dont have a culture of bad behavior at Baylor University. The problems that were dealing with at Baylor and have dealt with at Baylor, to this point, are problems that are probably at every university in the country.Grobe later said he was referring to the players on the current roster, not the former players accused of sexual assault and other acts of violence. At the time, Hammad was still on the roster.A Baylor spokeswoman said this week that Hammad was suspended from team activities when school officials learned of his arrest on Monday. She declined to answer any questions about him.?Our policy is, weve got a strict athletic department policy which I feel is really the way we have to be, Grobe said Thursday. When youre charged with a felony, you will not practice, you will not compete in any games until its cleared up. And then the university makes a decision on suspensions. So the athletic department decision right now is that no practice, no games until you get you get it cleared up. And then the university makes the decision as to whether or not you can stay on the campus.?The woman who reported the incidents last fall to Baylor told Outside the Lines that she met Hammad at a Baylor chapel last September. They agreed to hang out a few days later. When he picked her up, he said he had some laundry to do and drove over to his house. She said he took her into his apartment bedroom, where he forced her into a sexual act.She said she was stunned but let him take her home. She said she didnt report the incident to the police because she didnt think what happened would mean anything to a police officer because she did not perceive what happened to be rape, and she said she was worried about the repercussions of reporting a football player. It was only when an acquaintance told her she had had a similar encounter with Hammad that she, and that?acquaintance, decided to report him to Baylors Title IX office later that?month.I thought Title IX was like the schools version of the police, the woman told Outside the Lines.The acquaintance told Outside the Lines she didnt want to file a separate Title IX report but wanted her assault allegation noted to support the woman. The woman who filed the report said Hammad soon began texting and calling her during a class to find out if she had reported him to the school. Later that day, while walking back to her dorm, she said she heard a car horn honking and saw Hammad get out of his car and run toward her, asking her about a notice from the Title IX office.She said she and her?acquaintance?then filed for no-contact orders through Baylors Title IX office. The womans order, reviewed by Outside the Lines, was issued Sept. 30, 2015.On Oct. 2, 2015, the woman was sitting outside Baylors student union and talking on the phone when she looked up and saw Hammad in front of her, she told Outside the Lines. I knew he was very aware there was a no-contact order. He said, You know it was consensual. She said she didnt respond and tried to get up as Hammad started yelling at her.Two male students behind her noticed and stood up, at which point he walked away. She said she called Baylor police, who interviewed the two witnesses. An officer told her that she could press charges. I said: No, this is not what college is supposed to be. I dont want to press charges, she said. I just thought Title IX would take care of it.Outside the Lines began investigating the incident in April, requesting the Baylor police report from that incident. Baylor officials declined to release it, stating it was an education record protected under federal student privacy laws. The Texas Attorney Generals office upheld Baylors decision not to release the police report.The woman in the no-contact incident told Outside the Lines that one of the most disappointing aspects of Baylors handling of the allegations is that it appears Hammad was never disciplined. The day after the incident near Baylors student union, she and friends -- including the acquaintance who said Hammad had assaulted her, too -- went to AT&T Stadium in Arlington to watch Baylor play Texas Tech. She said they were shocked to see Hammad on the field.We felt we were being betrayed, she said. Its like they were rewarding him by playing him and starting him in the game. I texted the police officer ... and said: Why the hell is he starting? He broke a no-contact order. She said the officer apologized but couldnt give her an answer because she had no involvement in those decisions.Thats when it really hit us that Baylor wasnt doing anything at the time, the acquaintance said, noting that the no-contact order stated that violation could result in suspension or expulsion from the school.Hammad played in all 13 games that season.The woman said she ultimately stopped attending Baylor football games and became frustrated with the Title IX process. In late October, she declined to participate in the judicial affairs trial that had been called because of her reports, because she said it would have been too emotionally upsetting to be in close contact with Hammad. She said she was given the option to have her Title IX investigator speak on her behalf, and she agreed to that.The only communication the woman had with Baylor after the hearing came in a Nov. 12 email from Baylor Chief Judicial Officer Bethany McCraw, the woman told Outside the Lines. The email, reviewed by Outside the Lines, stated that the woman needed to start taking a certain exit from a science building to avoid coming in contact with Hammad. It also stated that if the woman needed to access any building on campus where she did not have a scheduled class, or outside of her scheduled class time, that she must email McCraw at least 24 hours ahead of time to get her approval.I never got a result from the trial, and now Im being told how to exit the building as if Im the one whos being charged? she said. I felt like I was being punished and treated like a criminal.She reached out to Title IX Coordinator Patty Crawford, who was out of the office that day, and then I emailed every single person who works for Ken Starr listed on his website, and I told them I was disgusted with Baylor.?She said no one responded to the email.She said she called the Title IX office a few days later and complained about the email from McCraw to the person who answered the phone -- whose name she did not recall -- and also asked about the trial. She said she was told, We cant disclose what happened at the trial to you.At that point, I was done, the woman said. I said: Youve ruined my first semester of college. ... Please dont contact me again. This has been the worst experience of my life.A Baylor spokeswoman said in an email Thursday that any determination of a Title IX procedure is communicated to both parties, and all parties have the right to appeal. Both parties in every case have equal rights and have access to the same investigative reports and case-related information, including the outcomes, rationale, and if applicable, sanction/s, appeal information, and appeal outcomes.Information from ESPNs Max Olson was used in this report.

Fans inside Notre Dame Stadium who were calling for defensive coordinator Brian VanGorders job on Saturday got their wish one day later, as Fighting Irish coach Brian Kelly fired the beleaguered defensive coordinator Sunday and promoted defensive analyst Greg Hudson to the post.Saying that Hudson and every other staff member was on a public interview for the rest of the season, Kelly has turned to a fresh set of eyes in hopes of fixing a defense that has allowed 149 points through a 1-3 start, the most points the program has ever given up in its first four games.What I was looking for in this particular instance -- each situation you evaluate it at face value -- and what I was looking for, I thought Greg was the perfect fit to bring that energy level up to where I want to see it, Kelly said during a conference call, shortly after the school announced the change. Guys play hard, but we lack some of the energy and enthusiasm and the fun, quite frankly, that you need to have when youre playing on defense.Notre Dame is 1-5 in its last six games dating back to last season, with its only win coming in Week 2 over Nevada. The Irish have allowed 206 points in those five losses.Notre Dame currently ranks 103rd nationally in total defense, 101st in scoring defense, 104th in yards per play, 96th in rushing defense and 87th in passing defense.Hudson had joined the Irish defensive staff in June and has coordinator experience at Purdue, East Carolina and Minnesota, in addition to serving as assistant head coach and linebackers coach at Florida State.Obviously, this is a difficult day for our coaching staff, but Im excited and honored about the opportunity that Coach Kelly has afforded me, Hudson said in a release earlier Sunday. Weve got to improve on defense, without a doubt, and Im confident that we will. We have great student-athletes and a tremendous defensive coaching staff. I cant wait to get started with our group.Kelly had staunchly defended VanGorder at every turn this season, even saying after Saturdays 38-35 loss to Duke that all 22 starting players jobs were up for grabs but that he was pleased with the coaching staff. He explained the change in public stance Sunday by saying that news conferences are not the appropriate time or place to evaluate his staff, an evaluation that he said took place Saturday night after the loss.Thats not the approppriate time to get into talking about your coaches and where do you feel they fit on that continuum of how well theyre doing, Kelly said.dddddddddddd. Im going to defend them in those public settings. As I got a chance to further evaluate our football team and our current situation I felt that it was in our best interest to make the move that I did.Kelly reiterated Sunday that the defensive vision and personnel will likely be tweaked in the coming weeks.You know, Ill spend a lot more time with the defense obviously, he said. But you know, terminology will stay effectively the same. Were not going to go and pull the rug underneath the kids at this point in the season.But youll see some certain tweaks that I feel like are necessary and some things that I know that as a group, that we will collectively come to an agreement in our best interests.He added that his role will be more as a supervisor to help the transition following?VanGorders dismissal.Kelly said he did not consider a staff change in the offseason after Notre Dame lost its final two games in which it surrendered a combined 82 points, but he said he did evaluate everything internally following this seasons 50-47 double-overtime loss at Texas in the opener.Tax records released to ESPN.com this past spring showed that VanGorder had been among the schools highest-paid employees in 2014, making $1,106,156 in his first year. Multiple sources told ESPN.com that VanGorder had signed a three-year deal when he joined Notre Dame. By comparison, previous Irish defensive coordinator Bob Diaco, now the third-year head coach at UConn, had made $672,824 in his final season with the school, according to tax records obtained by ESPN.com.VanGorders son, Montgomery, is a redshirt sophomore quarterback with the Irish, and Kelly said he addressed the coordinators dismissal with the signal-caller immediately.Asked if an in-season turnaround now must be coach-led or player-led, Kelly said: It starts with the coaches, its got to be coach-led, and theyve got to start the fire. Then those players that have that intrinsic motivation, that fire within, they will come along with us. Those that dont, were going to leave them along the side. But this is going to start with the coaches. Stitched Jerseys Cheap Jerseys NFL Jerseys China Jerseys NFL China Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale NFL Jerseys China Wholesale Jerseys From China ' ' '
