The NCAA is conducting an “ongoing, pending investigation” into Baylor University in the wake of a sexual assault scandal that led to the firing of football coach Art Briles and the departure of the school president, the school’s lawyers confirmed in a federal court filing. Baylor officials acknowledged the investigation while asking a judge to protect the school’s communications with the NCAA from attorneys for several women who have sued the nation’s largest Baptist university. Baylor contends the school must maintain the confidentiality of the NCAA’s investigation process, though the school could turn over some information to plaintiffs’ attorneys who make specific requests. Baylor has been engulfed by the scandal for more than a year as more than a dozen women have filed lawsuits alleging the school mishandled or ignored their rape claims against football players and other students for years. The school is also facing several federal civil rights investigations and a state criminal investigation. [...] symptoms related to an enlarged heart caused Fairley to miss offseason practices and minicamp while he saw specialists to determine whether playing football would be an undue health risk. Saints coach Sean Payton has said at least one specialist recommended that Fairley — a former Auburn player and 2011 first-round draft pick by Detroit — give up football. Former Green Bay Packers running back Ahman Green has been charged with felony child abuse after his 15-year-old daughter told Ledgeview, Wis., police that he punched her in the face during a dispute about getting her to do the dishes.
