The attorney of Florida wide receiver Antonio Callaway released a statement to the Tampa Bay Times Friday in response to accusations of bias in the sexual assault case against his client.

We have read what the complainant’ s attorney has released to the press.

We consider his actions inappropriate and an attempt at intimidation.

Since the complainant’s attorney has chosen to go to the press in this matter, we assume that he will be releasing the hundreds of pages that made up the University of Florida’s investigation. We assume that he will be releasing the sworn affidavits in this case. We assume that he will be releasing the complainant’s text messages in the investigation. We assume that he will be releasing the complainant’s multitude of varying and conflicting stories.

We are not going to besmirch his client in the press. The totality of the investigation which is over one-thousand (1,000) pages will do that for us.

Our client has asked us not to release anything at this point. Because of the conduct of the complainant’s attorney, that may change in the future.

The University of Florida notified the complaint’s attorney, John Clune, Friday that a third party, Jacksonville attorney and Gators booster Jake Schickel, would preside over the hearing. Schickel has donated at least $6,800 to UF’s athletic department, which includes thousands for the football program, the Times reported based on the Gators Boosters’ 2014-15 athletic year-in-review document.

Clune told ESPN that his client will boycott the Title IX hearing and accused Schickel’s ties to the program as a conflict of interest given Callaway’s status on the team. The sophomore led the Gators with 678 yards and four touchdowns on 35 receptions in 2015.
