NCAA says Baylor’s failed handling of sexual assault allegations against athletes did not violate NCAA rules

WACO, Texas (AP) — The NCAA infractions committee says its investigation into the Baylor sexual assault scandal would result in four years probation and other sanctions. But the committee says the “unacceptable” behavior at the heart of the case did not violate NCAA rules. The NCAA ruling came more than five years after the sexual assault scandal broke at the world’s largest Baptist university. The NCAA says Baylor admitted to moral and ethical failings in its handling of sexual violence on campus but argued that did not break NCAA rules. The infractions committee says it reluctantly agreed.
