Former UT players indicted on sexual assault charges

AUSTIN — A Travis County grand jury has indicted two former Texas wide receivers on sexual assault charges, the Austin American-Statesman reported Monday.

Montrel Meander and Kendall Sanders were dismissed from the Longhorns’ football team last summer after they were arrested in connection to a June 21 incident involving a female student at a UT residence hall. Both men face felony sexual assault charges, and Sanders also is charged with improper photography.

Meander, who would have been a sophomore this season, has a court date scheduled for Wednesday. Sanders, who would have been a junior, is due in court on Jan. 23.

-- takes a hard line against sexual abuse by members of the Texas Longhorns. He should be commended by all. I truly hope they have a winning season. I especially hope they smash Notre Dame, which has had an absolutely shameful record on the issue of football rape going all the way back to 1974 (if not earlier).
