EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) — A Michigan State University football player has filed a lawsuit alleging the school was wrong to suspend him from the team indefinitely while investigating sexual assault allegations against him from January.

The federal lawsuit filed Friday identifies the sophomore only as John Doe. It alleges Michigan State has been unresponsive to his demands for reinstatement while the school’s investigation and grievance process under federal Title IX rules are completed, the Lansing State Journal reported.

The suit alleges that the university breached its contractual obligations to the player, who is on a full scholarship, and that it discriminated against him because of his gender.
