So far, details have been scarce and the nature of the alleged sex crimes unspecified, other than that the investigation stems from an incident that took place June 26th of this year in a dormitory.
The Tennessean reports:
Metro police have revealed few details about the case.

No arrests have been made and it remains unclear how the four players are connected to the ongoing sex crimes investigation.
Head coach James Franklin issued the following statement when news of the investigation first became public: “For student athletes at Vanderbilt, it is a privilege, not a right, to be a part of the program. My coaching staff and I make sure every member of our team understands that. We insist on high standards of personal responsibility and integrity, and there are consequences when those standards are not met.”
