Former Auburn tight end Landon Rice, who has been accused of rape by a female Auburn student, repeatedly apologized to the woman via text message, according to documents released by the accuser's attorney.

The attorney, Jeff Herman, released a series of texts between Rice and his accuser in which Rice repeatedly apologized and said he "knew it was wrong."

Rice was accused in a July 27 complaint of first-degree rape. The incident allegedly occurred in an on-campus residence on April 12. Rice's attorney has called the allegations against him false.
