Baylor OL Hammad arrested on stalking charge

Baylor offensive lineman Rami Hammad is facing felony stalking charges after his former girlfriend reported several instances in which he tracked her down, harassed her and twice physically assaulted her -- including once at Baylor's athletic facilities on campus.

On July 7, the former girlfriend noticed Hammad waiting for her after class and she asked for help from the professor, who took the woman into her office, and Hammad "began continually knocking on the door," according to the arrest affidavit.

The professor first tried to call Hammad's coaches, but when no one in the athletic department was available, she placed a call to Baylor police.
