The story broke just a few days ago regarding Gareon Conley, former Ohio State standout, raping a woman in a hotel room.

The timing of this accusation was unusually odd, as the draft was only several days away.

The woman claimed she was raped by Conley, and then went to the hospital to be treated with a rape kit. Further evidence is nowhere to be seen.

TMZ Sports stated that video evidence saw Conley and the accuser having a good time at a bar, about 25 minutes before they departed for a hotel room.

TMZ Sports says, “The video is critical because it appears to contradict what the accuser told police—that she first met Conley in an elevator at the Westin hotel around 2:45 a.m.”

Teams are now starting to consider Conely “draftable” again and believe his side of the story.

If the allegations are false, it would be a major ploy to derail the Ohio State products career.
