In a complaint filed to the Michigan State Title IX office in December, Tracy claims that Tucker made sexual comments toward her and masturbated for several minutes during a phone call on April 28, 2022, per USA Today. Tracy, who was sexually assaulted by four men — two Oregon State University football players, a junior college player and a high school recruit — 25 years ago, sat frozen during the call, per the complaint.
“Ms. Tracy’s distortion of our mutually consensual and intimate relationship into allegations of sexual exploitation has really affected me,” Tucker wrote in a March 22 letter to the investigator. “I am not proud of my judgment and I am having difficulty forgiving myself for getting into this situation, but I did not engage in misconduct by any definition.”
Tucker said they had acknowledged their mutual desire for a romance but agreed it would be “too messy” because of his marriage and the physical distance between them. Once, Tucker called Tracy via FaceTime. He was in bed, shirtless. He talked about his unhappy marriage, describing himself as “more or less single.” Then, during a Nov. 9, 2021, call, she said he asked her, “If I wasn’t a football coach and if I wasn’t married, would you date me?”
