Ex-Baylor Volleyball Player Allegedly Gang Raped By Football Players

Published | Updated

More vile allegations involving the Baylor football team ... this time a former Baylor women's volleyball player claims she was gang raped by a group of football players in 2012.

The woman, who identifies herself as Jane Doe,

-- claiming she was "brutally gang raped by at least four and, according to some reports, as many as eight, Baylor football players." The woman notes Art Briles was the head coach at the time.

In her suit, the woman claims she was at a party when she was "drugged" by football players -- picked up and carried into one of the football players' truck.

She remembers being taken to a bedroom where she was "lying on her back, unable to move and staring at glow-in-the-dark stars on the ceiling as the football players took turns raping her."

The woman claims she remembers hearing the players yell, "Grab her phone! Delete my numbers and texts" ... in an apparent effort to get rid of damning evidence.

In her suit, she claims at least one of the players took nude photos of her during the gang rape.

There's more ... after she reported the incident to the Baylor counseling center, she claims the Baylor football team sought retribution. She claims several players broke into her apartment and ransacked her room, stealing money and other belongings.

The woman claims she reported the burglary to the Waco PD but no charges were pressed.

She claims the football players continued to threaten and harass her until she left the school in 2013.

The woman is seeking unspecified damages.

Baylor has issued a statement saying, "The alleged incident outlined in the court filing occurred more than 5 years ago, and Baylor University has been in conversations with the victim’s legal counsel for many months in an attempt to reach an amicable resolution."

"As this case proceeds, Baylor maintains its ability to present facts -- as available to the University -- in response to the allegations contained in the legal filing."'

"The University’s response in no way changes Baylor’s position that any assault involving members of our campus community is reprehensible and inexcusable."

"Baylor remains committed to eliminating all forms of sexual and gender-based harassment and discrimination within our campus community."

Gisele Tom Brady Has Concussions All The Time 'We Don't Talk About'

Published | Updated

Tom Brady suffered a football-related concussion last year that nobody knew about -- and he secretly gets concussions all the time -- so says his wife, Gisele.

The supermodel appeared on "CBS This Morning" on Wednesday and expressed frustration with Tom's health ... particularly the brain injuries he suffers on the field.

"Football ... like he had a concussion last year," Gisele said.

"I mean he has concussions pretty much every [year] ... I mean, we don't talk about. But he does have concussions."

This could be a big deal ... considering Brady was not listed on the NFL injury list for a concussion once in 2016. It begs the question ... was the injury covered up to keep him on the field?

In the NFL, if a player is diagnosed with a concussion during a game, he is NOT allowed to return to the field for the remainder of that game. He may return the following week at the discretion of his doctor.

"I don’t really think it’s a healthy thing for your body to go through like, through that kind of aggression like, all the time–that cannot be healthy for you, right?"

"I mean I’m planning on having him be healthy and do a lot of fun things when we’re like 100, I hope."

SKY'S THE LIMIT

Could Lonzo Ball be a Boston Celtic??

It's possible ... because Celtics co-owner Wyc Grousbeck tells TMZ Sports the team is definitely considering drafting the former UCLA stud with the #1 overall pick.

Grousbeck was leaving the NBA Draft lottery in NYC Thursday night when he told us he's fired up about securing the top spot -- "It seems like Celtic pride is going crazy right now!"

Wyc says the team hasn't made its mind up on who will be #1 -- but says they're looking about the 6 "really good guys" in the draft ... and bad news, LaVar -- that list includes Lonzo.

Of couse, LaVar has made it crystal clear he wants his son in the Purple and Gold ... but Wyc says Boston ain't exactly a bad place to end up either!

"We're a place that people would wanna come and play," Grousbeck says ... "We're doing well and room for improvement."

Bonus -- Wyc says he'll have a very special VIP in the owner's box with him Wednesday night ... a huge Boston fan who's pretty tight with Conor McGregor.

Ex-Sacramento Kings Owner: I Never Woulda Traded DeMarcus Cousins!

Published | Updated

The Sacramento Kings made a tremendous mistake getting rid of DeMarcus Cousins and it's gonna take 'em a long time to recover ... so says the team's former owner Gavin Maloof.

Maloof -- who co-owned the Kings with his brothers until 2013 -- was in L.A. with his GF, Katherine, when we asked if he would have pulled the trigger to ship Boogie to New Orleans if he was still in charge.

"No. No way ... No way ... No way."

Maloof said time will tell if the team made the right call -- but points out they "didn't get much in return" for Cousins and predicts, "It's gonna take 'em a long time to rebuild."

There's more ... Maloof has moved on to owning another pro sports team -- the Las Vegas Golden Knights, the new NHL expansion team.

He's pumped about sharing the town with the Raiders but explains why moving an NBA team to Sin City would be a mistake.

Marlon Wayans Ex-WWE Star Is Afraid of Black Dong

SHE'S MISSING OUT

Marlon Wayans believes he's gotten to the root of why ex-WWE star Cameron doesn't date black men -- and let's just say size matters.

As we previously reported, Cameron -- real name Ariane Andrew -- says she's not racist, she's just more attracted to white men. She says it's simply a personal preference.

But Marlon says it's deeper than that ... pointing out that Cameron experiences a lot of physical pain as a wrestler -- "she don't want it in her vagina, too!"

Stereotypes -- they're great when they're about big penises.

Bob Marley's Grandson Signs NFL Contract ... I'm Smokin' QBs Now!

Published | Updated

Get up, stand up ... and salute Bob Marley's grandson -- who just signed a free agent contract with the Washington Redskins.

The team announced Nico Marley -- an undrafted free agent LB out of Tulane -- has officially inked a deal with them after he impressed coaches at the team's rookie mini-camp.

What's REALLY impressive ... Nico is pretty undersized as far as NFL linebackers go ... he's only 5'8". (For the record, Bob was only 5'7")

Of course, this doesn't mean Nico will be with the team on opening day -- he still has to earn a roster spot ... but still, it's a great start.

Athletes seem to run in the family ... Nico's dad, Rohan Marley, played college football for Miami back in the day (with The Rock and Ray Lewis!) before a stint in the Canadian Football League.

Nico tweeted about the signing -- "My family and I are extremely grateful to the Washington Redskins organization ... for giving me this opportunity to prove myself in mini-camp."

"All I've ever needed was a chance to prove myself. Been hearing I'm 'too small' my whole life and that won't ever stop me."

Congrats!

HE'S ALL TALK

Kevin Lee punches like a straight-up bitch ... so says Michael Chiesa, the fighter who got socked in the face by Lee at last week's big UFC media event in Dallas.

The punch punctuated ANOTHER crazy UFC media event that also included Jon Jones admitting he blew a ton of coke before fighting Daniel Cormier back in 2015.

We spoke with Chiesa about the brawl and the 7th ranked UFC lightweight said he's more confident than ever he'll crush Lee in June because the guy ... well ... "He hits like a bitch."

"That dude ran up on me and landed a flush right hand, and I ate that thing like it was breakfast."

Of course, Lee feels differently and vows to "beat the f*ck" out of Chiesa when they face off on June 25th.

This should be fun.

Russell Westbrook I'M A DAD ... Kid Gets Baller Name

Published | Updated

Russell Westbrook had a pretty exciting Tuesday -- his wife, Nina, gave birth to their son!!!

The NBA star also revealed his kid's name -- Noah Russell Westbrook.

Interesting choice considering Russell is technically Russell Westbrook III -- and while he chose not to make his son Russell Westbrook IV ... he went with a very similar choice.

It's Russell and Nina's first kid. They were married in 2015 after being college sweethearts at UCLA, where they both played basketball.

So... see Noah at Pauley Pavilion in 2035???

Report: Josh Gordon 'Desperate for Cash'

Published | Updated

Cleveland Browns WR Josh Gordon is reportedly in dire financial straights and desperately hunting for a new agent who will float him some cash until he gets reinstated ... if that ever happens.

The insanely talented wideout hasn't played a snap in the NFL since 2014 -- and even then his season was cut short due to a substance abuse policy violation.

He was hoping to get reinstated last week -- but the NFL rejected his application and he won't get to apply again until September.

Meantime, he's running low on that NFL dough, so says Bleacher Report's Jason Cole who described Gordon's money issues as a "desperate financial situation."

Cole also notes that Gordon was fired by his agent, Joby Branion, and is hoping to sign with a new agent (one with a bankroll) in the hopes of getting a cash advance.

Shocking, considering Gordon is believed to have made $4.2 million since being signed by the Browns in 2012.

We've made attempts to reach Gordon -- so far, no word back.

Tee Martin's 13-Year-Old Son QB Won't Commit to Lane Kiffin ... Yet

Published | Updated

Tee Martin tells TMZ Sports he's "extremely proud" that his 13-year-old son already got a football scholarship offer from FAU coach Lane Kiffin ... but the QB prodigy ain't ready to commit yet.

We spoke with Tee who says he's convinced his son, Kaden Martin, is way better than he ever was ... and that's saying a lot considering Tee led Tennessee to a BCS title in 1998.

Tee points out that he worked under Lane at USC and that's how Kaden got on LK's radar -- but he was still "shocked" when Kiffin reached out with the offer.

When asked if Kaden was ready to sign, Tee told us it's very important for Kaden to "go through the recruiting process" and look at his options after he gets to high school.

But Tee says that doesn't mean FAU is out.

FYI, Kaden is 5'11" and 175 lbs -- and Tee says, "He's way better than me at that age in ALL sports."

Bottom line -- Lane's offer may be the first ... but it probably won't be the last.

DRIVE-BY SHOOTING

A cyclist riding in New Orleans got hit by a stray bullet from a shooting nearby ... and the whole thing was caught on video.

Christopher Weiss was cruising along with his cycling club in NOLA, when all of a sudden he shrieked in pain and had to pull over. As it turns out ... he'd been shot.

One of his fellow riders caught the entire encounter on their mounted bike camera, as another attended to his wound. It's pretty crazy -- you can see the exact moment he was hit ... even though you don't hear gunfire.

Luckily for Chris, it was only a minor flesh wound, and he's expected to make a full recovery.

Conor McGregor Shot Down Guy Ritchie For 'King Arthur' Role

Published | Updated

Guy Ritchie tried -- and failed -- to cast Conor McGregor in his new 'King Arthur' flick ... all because the UFC star said he didn't want to distract himself from fighting.

Ritchie admitted going after McGregor to The Irish Sun -- saying he thinks McGregor's got what it takes to be the next Jason Statham ... who starred in Guy's smash hits, "Snatch" and "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels."

"Like Jason Statham, he’s an athlete, completely on his game all the time. Look where he’s at now. And you can see that similarity in Conor, he could clean up in Hollywood."

“We even went after him for a part in the movie but he wasn’t having any of it. Was training for a fight at the time, couldn’t take his attention away from that."

The fight was UFC 194 ... when Conor knocked out Jose Aldo in 13 seconds.

Conor has been getting movie offers for years -- but previously told us he'll only take a role if the money's right.

CAN'T STOP WON'T STOP

Bad news for every other female tennis player on the planet -- Serena Williams says she will be BACK to destroy all of you ... right after she gives birth!

Some have speculated the 35-year-old will hang it up after the baby is born -- since there's only 1 other player who's older than her in the Top 75 (it happens to be her sister, Venus).

But when we saw Serena in NYC, she shot down the retirement talk.

We also asked if she's having any pregnancy cravings -- and of course, it's healthy.
