Chuck Love, Jr. and Ashley Scoggin (Courtesy of Nebraska Athletics)LINCOLN–(KFOR/AP/USA Today Apr. 29)–New information has surfaced in the allegations of a sexual relationship between former Nebraska women’s basketball assistant coach Chuck Love and former Husker guard Ashley Scoggin. USA Toda y is reporting that Scoggin’s attorney wrote in a March 17 filing that at a February 5 deposition, Love admitted for the first time he had a sexual relationship with Scoggin. She was dismissed from the team in 2022 and in 2024, filed a civil lawsuit against Love and University of Nebraska officials. The attorney also wrote that the NU Board of Regents, head coach Amy Williams and former Athletic Director Trev Alberts, all named as co-defendants, endorsed Love’s denial of the relationship. Scoggin described in her original complaint how Love took a special interest in her and that the relationship turned sexual and caused Scoggin to fear retaliation if she refused to engage in it. Williams and Alberts, now the athletic director at Texas AM, are accused of not setting rules, training or policies prohibiting staff members from having sexual relationships with athletes. Scoggin played two seasons for the Cornhuskers. She was dismissed from the team on the same day Love was suspended with pay in February 2022. Love resigned three months later. Scoggin, who is from Dallas, Oregon, transferred to UNLV. Scoggin was kicked off the Nebraska team a few days after teammates discovered her, fully clothed, in Love’s room during a road trip. Love initially denied Scoggin’s claims he sought sexual relationships with students, that he discussed inappropriate topics with her and that he invited her to go out for drinks. The regents, Williams and Alberts said in their joint response to the civil lawsuit that they didn’t have “sufficient information and belief to either admit or deny the allegations” of a sexual relationship between Scoggin and Love. The university, in its initial response to the lawsuit, said Scoggin’s removal from the team was warranted, in part, because of “dishonesty and distrust” between Scoggin and her teammates.   ...read more read less
