University of Georgia's Colbie Young Arrested for Assault of Unborn Child "On Friday, January 30, Villanova University Police arrested and charged Villanova student D'Hani Cobbs with the sexual assault of another University student stemming from a December 2025 incident," the University said in the statement obtained by Us Weekly. "Once the University learned of the incident, campus police launched an investigation, notified the Delaware County District Attorney's Office, and removed the alleged assailant from campus." The statement continued, "Sexual violence of any kind is not tolerated on our campus, and we are committed to both supporting the victim and fostering a safe environment for all of our students. We are deeply troubled any time we receive reports of such misconduct, as our priority is, and always has been, to ensure we have a safe community for our students, faculty, and staff." Villanova Athletics' website previously stated that Cobbs was a wide receiver on the football team during the fall 2025 season, according to The Villanovan. However, his bio page has since been taken down from the website. His stats page stated that he returned one punt for the team during the past season. The university first became aware of the alleged sexual assault when the Villanova University's Department of Public Safety received a report about the incident back on December 7, 2025. The Public Safety Department sent an email to everyone on campus that same day, explaining that "the guest and the resident student were known to each other." The university added that any forms of assault would not be tolerated on the campus. "Sexual assault is a violation of University policy and the law," the email read, according to The Villanovan. "All forms of sexual misconduct, including sexual assault, sexual harassment, sexual exploitation, dating/domestic violence and stalking, are not tolerated at Villanova. Information on Villanova's prevention and response efforts can be found on this dedicated website."
