TRANSFER QB Jett Duffey Denied Admission to CMU Over TitleIX Charge
Quarterback Jett Duffey has been denied admission to Central Michigan. According to Central Michigan Life, a female student at Texas Tech said Duffey sexually assaulted her while she was incapacitated. The 2019 case ended in “voluntary resolution,” and Duffey was not suspended from team activities. the accusation played a role in Central Michigan denying admission to Duffey.
While at Texas Tech, Duffey was found responsible by a Title IX panel for two counts of sexual assault in 2017 against an incapacitated woman, but a grand jury determined there was insufficient evidence to prosecute the case. The case was closed after the office “received proof that Jett complied with all terms of the voluntary resolution.” Duffey’s attorney, Chuck Lanehart, said Duffey never faced criminal charges nor was he arrested for any of the allegations.
“Jett is a talented football player, an excellent student, and he deserves a chance to continue his college playing career. He has consistently maintained his innocence of allegations of misconduct and has been cleared by Texas Tech of any Title IX allegations from 2019,” Lanehart said
This is the second time Duffey has been denied admission to another college. Duffey originally planned to transfer to Tulane but was denied academic admission. He remains in the NCAA transfer portal as a graduate transfer with one year of eligibility remaining.
