Wisconsin wide receiver Danny Davis was suspended for the first two games of the season on Wednesday, two days after his roommate was charged with felony sexual assault following an incident last April involving two women at his apartment.
University of Wisconsin officials are attempting to gather more information regarding the alleged actions of wide receivers Quintez Cephus and Danny Davis.
Lawyers for UW-Madison wide receiver Quintez Cephus wrote in court filings Tuesday they believe prosecutors have evidence showing two women who said Cephus sexually assaulted them in April were not impaired by alcohol as the women have told police.
In the next few years, some of the most prominent University of Wisconsin sports facilities could be getting face-lifts, with a wide spectrum of reasons.
University of Wisconsin wide receiver Quintez Cephus was charged with two counts of sexual assault Monday. Per reports, police claim the 20-year-old junior, who was set to be the Badgers’ top receiver this season, assaulted two women on the same night at his apartment.
UW-Madison responded to criminal charges that were filed Monday against Badgers football player Quintez Cephus, saying they view allegations of sexual assault “with deep concern.”
UW also released a statement that said while they are unable to comment on a specific case due to Chapter 17 of the UW System Administrative Code, the Title IX Program in the Office of Compliance has the authority to conduct a “formal impartial investigation into the allegations.”
Junior receiver Quintez Cephus, who announced he is taking an indefinite leave of absence from the Badgers football team Saturday, has now been formally suspended from the team for a violation of the Student-Athlete Discipline Policy, according to a Monday afternoon statement from UW Athletic Director Barry Alvarez.
University of Wisconsin wide receiver Quintez Cephus was charged Monday with second- and third-degree sexual assault of two intoxicated women who said he sexually assaulted both of them, and said that Cephus and his roommate, teammate Danny Davis, laughed and took photos of the women, according to a criminal complaint.
Across the board it would appear the No. 9 Badgers have more accomplished players than spots in the lineup. That’s particularly true in the front court, where he could utilize any combination of players with justification.
Cephus, who missed the final five games of the 2017 season after suffering a broken leg, announced on Twitter he has been informed he faces charges in Dane County in the wake of an incident that occurred in April.
The junior was set to make a highly-anticipated return to the field after he hurt his right leg in November in the game at Indiana.
In a Tweet, Cephus said he was informed Friday afternoon that the Dane County District Attorney was bringing forth unspecified charges against him for an incident that occurred in April 2018.
The Wisconsin football team will be without last year’s top receiving target for the indefinite future, following today’s announcement by junior Quintez Cephus that he is leaving the team due to potential “unspecified charges” to come from the Dane County District Attorney’s office.
