Report: Vanderbilt Football Player Allowed Teammates To Rape His Girlfriend

(CBS) Allegations have emerged in the investigation into the Vanderbilt football team that led to the dismissal of four players.

Former Volunteers quarterback Erik Ainge, who now hosts a daily sports talk radio show in Tennessee, disclosed what he termed "very reliable information" on the investigation, saying that one Vanderbilt football player allowed three of his teammates to rape his girlfriend after a night of drinking.

"They were out," Ainge said, "they were drinking, they went back, the boyfriend, a Vandy football player, had sex with his girlfriend, then allowed his three drunk teammates with him to also have sex with his girlfriend, and she obviously did not want that to be the case."

Names of the accused players have not been released.
