A former Nebraska women's basketball coach has acknowledged engaging in a five-month ***** ual affair with a player he supervised on the Nebraska team but said it was consensual and is now making an argument in court that he should be dismissed from that player's lawsuit against him, according to documents obtained by USA TODAY Sports.
The coach is former Cornhuskers ***** istant coach Chuck Love, who is being sued by the player, Ashley Scoggin, as part of a ***** le IX lawsuit in federal court. Scoggin sued Love and Nebraska in 2024, alleging she was groomed to have a ***** ual relationship with Love and then was kicked off the team after their relationship was uncovered in a ruse at a team hotel in February 2022.
In response, Love filed a motion for summary judgment July 31 that would drop him from the lawsuit if successful. This motion argues while he had a ***** ual relationship with Scoggin at Nebraska, it was consensual and doesn't violate the constitution.
"Plaintiff (Scoggin) and Love engaged in a consensual ***** ual relationship from September, 2021 – February, 2022," said the brief filed with the motion from Love's attorney, Denise Frost. "They told no one about it. Love did not make, imply or impose threats, retaliation or adverse consequences on Plaintiff in order to have ***** ual contact with her. Plaintiff never told Love 'no' to ***** ual contact or refused to engage with him."
Love's supporting brief said Scoggin initiated and engaged Love in ***** ually charged conversations and created provocative nude and semi-nude photos of herself and sent them to Love on Snapchat. Love's brief also said he and Scoggin had consensual ***** ual contact in various places, including the Speedway parking lot in Lincoln, in Love's office, in a Nebraska locker room, at Love's home and hotel rooms when the team traveled out of state. It noted Scoggin was 23 at the time and Love was 35.
