WACO, Texas -- A woman who said she was raped by two Oregon State football players and two other men in 1998 shared her story with the Baylor football team Monday.Brenda Tracys talk with the Bears came two months after a 13-page report said Baylor failed to properly handle accusations of sexual assault, including some against former football players.After hearing about Baylors case, Tracy had called for the NCAA to shut down the football program.Tracy told ESPN Central Texas radio that Baylor football and basketball players were engaged and paying attention, and that she told them that they have an opportunity to exact real change and be an example to follow. She was invited to campus by Baylor acting head football coach Jim Grobe, who replaced Art Briles within days after the report from the Pepper Hamilton law firm.One thing I try to do is make this real for people. Look at me, Im a human being, I could be your neighbor, I could be your mother, I could be the person behind you at the grocery store, she said. But I spent all these years wanting to kill myself and hating myself because someone else took my body and I did not give it to them.Tracy said what she tries to do is put a face and a person and a human experience to rape.A month ago, Tracy shared her story with Nebraskas team. The Cornhuskers are coached by Mike Riley, who was Oregon States coach in 1998.The Associated Press generally doesnt identify sexual assault victims, but Tracy has spoken publicly about her experience. She has met with NCAA officials and said she will be speaking to other college teams, with expectations that she will be contacted by more.According to her Twitter profile, she is a Single mother, Registered Nurse, DV/SA Survivor turned Activist, Speaker, & Civilian Lobbyist. I believe one person can change the world...In a post on her Twitter account ((at)brendatracy24) after the talk, which was closed to the public, Tracy described Grobe as a good man with a good heart while thanking Baylor for hosting her. She also thanked Baylor players who had tweeted her afterward, responding that she appreciated them and telling them to remember the pledge they made to each other.Grobe told the AP before Tracys visit that he had spoken with Riley, who told him it was a hard thing to hear but educational.Weve got a great group of guys here, not good guys, great guys, great kids that would never be involved in these kinds of situations, but I think educating the good kids is just as important as educating the edgy guys, Grobe said earlier this month.The number one thing that I hope is that it brings home that these are real issues. It does pertain to you because you are your brothers keeper. ... Its your responsibility to make sure that not only are you behaving well, but that your teammates are behaving well, and we can take care of each other.Tracy said she talked to good men and called them out, asking them what can they do and how can we change this together.

On June 12, just as the sun sets on the magnificent historical city of Sao Paulo the inventors, innovators and purveyors of “joga bonitowill” open their campaign. The opponent, Croatia and all its football might and will. As opposites do attract we are set for a corker of an opener. Mal Meninga has added further spice to the Kangaroos Four Nations clash with England by saying hes no friend of rival coach Wayne Bennett, who he believes has spent the past year undermining his authority in the role.Meninga landed the first blow of the campaign shortly after landing in the UK this week, suggesting that Bennett - who has coached Australia in two previous stints but has taken control of England for the Four Nations - wants the job back.Bennett went head to head with Meninga, who he coached at club level, for the job when it became available last year - but was overlooked as officials opted for a full-time mentor.The veteran downplayed suggestions he was chasing Meningas job following Englands comfortable warm-up victory against France last weekend in his first game in charge, but Meninga has since lit the fuse once more.Writing in a newspaper column for Saturdays Courier-Mail, the Canberra, Queensland and Australia legend insists that for Bennett to once again grab a green-and-gold clipboard hed have to walk away from his head coaching role at the Brisbane Broncos.Meninga, who says the pair dont talk, argues Bennett has a lack of understanding about what the role actually entails born out of the frustration at being passed over for the job, insisting it extends beyond what happens on the field with the Kangaroos.dddddddddddd.Would I be able to do all of those things and coach an NRL club at the same time?No, and nor would Wayne or any other coach in the NRL.Meninga - who coached Queensland to an unprecedented eight-straight State of Origin series wins - believes Bennett doesnt rate me as a coach and is working against him at Australian Rugby League Headquarters, either to chip away at confidence in the current setup or put the Kangaroos of their game.Maybe it is just a tactical ploy, hoping if he gets under my skin then I will take my focus off the job at hand. Its not working, Meninga continues.When Wayne says he doesnt want my job, or that we are friends who will embrace after a game, it is just not true.Im a man of my own convictions. Im not looking for approval from Wayne, nor am I trying to impress him.I know there is a perception that he and I are friends. Were not enemies, but were not friends either.Theres no bad blood -- theres just no blood at all. There is no relationship there. We dont talk. ' ' '
