DENVER - Colorado's attorney general decided against criminal charges
Tuesday in nine alleged sexual assaults involving Colorado football players,
blaming evidence concerns and the reluctance of women to go forward with the
cases.
Attorney General Ken Salazar, tapped as a special prosecutor by Gov. Bill
Owens at the height of the recruiting scandal in February, said a "thorough
review" by his task force resulted in a unanimous decision against charges.
The decision was "based upon evidentiary considerations and-or the expressed
wishes of some victims not to be subjected to the criminal justice process,"
Salazar said.
Salazar, who did not immediately return a call seeking comment, said the
probe would remain open. The task force will also continue its investigation
concerning other potential criminal matters involving the Colorado football
team and its recruiting program.
The university and a Board of Regents panel are also investigating
allegations that sex and alcohol were used to entice recruits to the Boulder
campus. At least eight women had accused football players or recruits of
rape since 1997, though no criminal charges were filed.
There was no immediate explanation for the ninth case referred to by
Salazar.
Three of the women have sued the school in federal court, saying its failure
to rein in the athletes contributed to their rapes in 2001. They claim the
rapes constituted a hostile environment for women in violation of federal
laws guaranteeing equal access to education. They are seeking unspecified
damages and sweeping changes at the school.
Football coach Gary Barnett has been suspended with pay for comments he made
about at least one of the women.

Paul Davis' column that wasn't printed in the O-A News

The more things change. Scratch that. Things don't change.

We have winning sports programs in Alabama. Alabama has won more 
national titles than any team in the nation. Its football program is on 
NCAA probation, it has had four coaches in five years. The Tide can't 
play in the Sugar Bowl or compete for another national title even if it 
had athletes good enough to win it all. So much for cheating.

Auburn is again looking down the barrel of the gun with its sports 
programs, too. The NCAA is wondering if Auburn promised $50,000 and a 
new car to a hot basketball prospect. AU pays less for players than 
Alabama. Remember the Alabama recruit by the name of Albert Means who 
was said to be on the auction block for $200,000. He was just a fat 
lineman. Wonder what a
top-rated quarterback or a seven-foot center would cost?

Now Auburn's basketball program is under investigation. All the canned 
statements have been made, press releases Nos. 3-6:
_
"The University can't comment on an on-going investigation. We are 
cooperating fully with the NCAA investigation. I have full confidence in 
those coaches who have been mentioned"

And from AU basketball coach Cliff Ellis: "I am very disappointed that 
the NCAA chose to charge the school."

I love sports. I hate cheats. I have 10 AU season tickets. I have 
covered sports at both Alabama and Auburn. Both cheat, both have been 
caught, both have suffered major sanctions, both have fired coaches.

Neither has ever learned from their mistakes.

Terry Bowden, the former Auburn football coach who was the darling here 
for just a few seasons, participated in the cover-up of cheating while 
he was here. He told me so. He also told others, many others, and he let 
some of us tape those confessions. I have a copy of the tape.

On a rainy afternoon at his Loachapoka farm, he admitted his role to a 
succession of visitors, including newspaper editors, former AU President 
Bill Muse, and several faculty members.

Bowden said he would tell the whole story, in the proper forum or under 
court order, but that seems to have changed now that the Auburn 
University Foundation has paid off the mortgage on his $800,000ish 
Auburn mansion. He might even deny his comments to his visitors that 
rainy afternoon, but we have them on tape.

Pay-for-play is not new and not unique to Alabama or Auburn. Among major 
programs, you simply have the caught and the uncaught.

The thing that blew me away about Bowden's comments was his willingness 
to name the major contributors to his payroll for athletes. He rattled 
off the names of at least four of Auburn's current trustees. Says he'll 
swear to it.

"I broke the rules," Bowden said. "I told (the assistant coach) to pay 
it off to the players we already had and it will never happen again."

The NCAA doesn't bring charges lightly because it knows of the fight 
ahead each time it does. Some in Alabama are already talking about laws 
to curb the NCAA's power over college sports programs. Good luck!

When you tamper with college football, you can get in a whole heap of 
trouble. Nice people simply don't want to talk about the dark side of 
athletics. Player buying has even been uncovered in high school programs.

Men who been given jobs and homes to move across state so that a high 
school could get its hands on a great running back.
"I was hiding a dirty secret," the former Auburn coach said. He said he 
learned of the major NCAA infractions within days of being named 
Auburn's head coach, but kept quiet while trying to clean up the program 
from within.

"I broke the rules," Bowden said. " I was hiding a dirty secret."

A dirty little secret, Bowden said, which involved AU trustees.
That's disgusting. You always see the names of some Big Daddy Big Bucks 
in Memphis, or some car dealer in Georgia described as "rogue boosters" 
who put up the money. At Auburn, some of those "rogue boosters" 
apparently are trustees, according to Bowden.

The names of trustees in Bowden's ledger book detailing payments to 
players and the names of trustees and others who supplied the money, 
have also caught the eye of investigators from the Southern Association 
of Colleges and Universities. That body is looking to see if the 
trustees "micro-manage" the university. If not the university, most 
certainly its department of
athletics. The trustees at this late date are probably safe from the 
NCAA as far as the Bowden allegations are concerned.

"I will go under oath," Bowden said, "and say that (a trustee) looked me 
in the eyes and said, 'I didn't want (an assistant coach) to collect 
more money than we needed to pay the players.' I was hiding a dirty 
secret. We were paying (a star running back). It took about two years to 
get it all cleaned up.

Former UT player admits to assault of dorm maid

The Associated Press
5/28/03 6:31 PM
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A former University of Tennessee baseball 
player will avoid jail after pleading guilty to assaulting a dormitory maid.

Jonathan "Jay" Sadlowe, 20, pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault in 
Knox County Criminal Court on May 23 and received judicial diversion, 
meaning he can have the conviction erased after a probationary term.

Sadlowe was indicted in February for allegedly forcing "sexual contact" 
with a housekeeper in May 2002. He denied any wrongdoing at the time.

The housekeeper was cleaning the bathroom in Sadlowe's dorm room when he 
walked into the bathroom nude and said lewd comments to her before 
touching her with his genitals, she testified in a hearing last summer.

Sadlowe's attorney, Donald A. Bosch, said his client maintains he did 
not sexually assault the maid and only struck her with the bathroom door 
when he opened it.

Sadlowe, a pitcher, left Tennessee after the allegations arose and 
transferred to the University of Alabama. He had to sit out the 2003 
because of the transfer.
