On Friday, Florida receiver Antonio Callaway will face a Title IX hearing over a sexual assault accusation, but the woman filing the complaint will boycott the hearing, according to a report by ESPN.
In a letter obtained by ESPN, the woman’s attorney, John Clune, wrote that the woman will not attend the hearing scheduled for Friday due to a possible conflict of interest, ESPN reported. Clune, the woman’s parents and five witnesses will also boycott the hearing, according to the letter, which was sent to UF deputy general counsel Amy Hass.
According to the ESPN report released on Friday, Florida appointed Jake Schickel — a former Florida track and field athlete and a current UF football athletics booster — as the hearing officer in Callaway’s case.
