AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Texas' top law enforcement agency has opened a preliminary investigation into Baylor University and how it handled reports of sexual and physical assault over several years.

The Texas Rangers confirmed Wednesday they are working with the McLennan County prosecutor's office to "determine if further action is warranted."

A Baylor spokeswoman said the school would cooperate with any investigatio

The suit, filed under the name Jane Doe, alleges that the victim was gang raped by as many as eight Baylor football players after attending a party in February 2012, [URL='https://www.dallasnews.com/news/baylor/2017/05/17/former-baylor-student-gang-raped-baylor-football-players-claims-title-ix-lawsuit']via Tom Steele of the Dallas Morning News. The student became intoxicated and did not recall everything about the encounter, but she remembered hearing someone yell “Grab her phone! Delete any numbers and texts.”

She also recalled being taunted, told that she “wanted it,” and that someone had taken pictures during the assault.

The lawsuit further alleges that these gang-rapes were premeditated, involved drugging victims, and were considered “bonding” experiences by football players, who also engaged in dog-fighting at the parties...

What lessons has Baylor learned?
Nearly every weekend, Baylor football players receive a text message from Bears coach Matt Rhule, who reminds them to be respectful toward women and how he expects his team to act off the field.

The players typically receive the text messages Thursday or Friday starting around 7 p.m. Then another one follows at 9 p.m., 11 p.m., 1 a.m. and 3 a.m.

"That's not because we're at Baylor," Rhule said. "That's because I'm dealing with 18- to 23-year-old kids, and I feel a responsibility just like I would feel for my son."

Make no mistake: The text messages might mean more at Baylor.

Baylor says NCAA investigation is ‘ongoing, pending’
In a legal filing last week, Baylor lawyers told a federal judge the NCAA probe is ”an ongoing, pending investigation.” Attorneys for several women suing the school have demanded Baylor turn over its communications with the NCAA. A Baylor spokeswoman declined further comment.

ESPN reported in May that the NCAA had conducted interviews with Baylor officials, former employees and alleged victims but that the school hadn’t been given a formal notice of investigation. NCAA officials did not immediately respond to a request for comment Monday.
