Two Baylor players have already faced sexual assault trials in the past couple of years. The first was Tevin Elliott, who was convicted in 2014 and was the impetus for a Title IX lawsuit filed against Baylor a few weeks ago. The second case was of Sam Ukwuachu, who was convicted of a sexual assault charge in the summer of 2015.
Oakman could have gone anywhere between the 3-5 round in the NFL Draft before these allegations arose. He went undrafted.
Oakman maintains he had consensual sex with the woman, per the report.
He was freed on $25,000 bond.
