Nic Woodley resigns from MTSU football position after charge of indecent exposure involving juvenile

Middle Tennessee State football coach Rick Stockstill accepted the resignation of former Director of Player Development Nic Woodley late Monday and is no longer a part of the Blue Raider football program, MTSU Sports Information Director Mark Owens told The DNJ on Tuesday.

Woodley was charged Sunday with public indecency, indecent exposure involving a juvenile and resisting arrest by Murfreesboro Police on Sunday. He was released from the Rutherford County Adult Detention Center on a $3,000 bond. He has a hearing in Rutherford County General Sessions Court on Nov. 30.

A press release sent from the Murfreesboro Police Department on Monday afternoon said that police believe there may be other possible victims and that the investigation is ongoing.

According to the release, the preliminary investigation shows Woodley allegedly exposed himself to a teenager at Target on Old Fort Parkway on Saturday, Oct. 14. It said Woodley returned to Target on Sunday and was arrested after police responded to a suspicious person call. The investigation revealed Woodley frequented the store for the past five days.

The Rutherford County Sherriff's Department arrest warrant said the victim was a female.

Woodley has been trespassed from all Rutherford County Target stores.

"Detectives are urging anyone who believes themselves to be a possible victim of Woodley to contact MPD Criminal Investigations Division Detective Ben Sagrera at 629-201-5633 or Crime Stoppers of Rutherford County at 615-893-STOP (7867)," the MPD release stated.

Woodley was suspended by the university following the charges before his resignation late Monday.

"Our concerns are with the victims of this outrageous alleged behavior," MTSU athletic director Chris Massaro told The DNJ on Tuesday.

Woodley, a Nauvoo, Alabama native, was in his sixth season with the Blue Raiders and his second in the current role, according to a profile on goblueraiders.com. He spent three years as a defensive graduate assistant and one as a quality control assistant.
