Overview
- Court papers filed March 17 say Chuck Love acknowledged in a February 5, 2026 deposition that he had a sexual relationship with former guard Ashley Scoggin after denying it in 2024.
- Ashley Scoggin sued in February 2024, alleging Love groomed her and that Nebraska violated Title IX and her due-process rights, and she is seeking a jury trial and damages.
- She expanded the suit in February 2026 to add sport administrator Keith Zimmer and Title IX coordinator Meagan Counley, alleging they mishandled the case once staff learned of the hotel incident.
- The dispute traces to a 2022 road trip when teammates obtained a key, entered Love’s hotel room, and found Scoggin inside, after which Nebraska suspended Love with pay and removed Scoggin from the roster.
- Nebraska denies wrongdoing and says distrust and dishonesty on the team justified her removal, while the case continues in federal court with discovery underway and no trial date set.
