Former Central Michigan University football player Brandon Greer will face trial on Nov. 16. 

Greer was arrested July 8 on charges of intent to commit sexual penetration, criminal sexual conduct, attempted unlawful imprisonment, lying to a police officer, eight counts of disturbing the peace and one count of assault and battery. The Illinois senior is accused of attempting to coerce multiple women into his car on several different occasions.

Greer is still listed as a student on CMU's website. The university is unable to share his status as a student as it would be a violation of the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act, said Assistant General Counsel Mary Roy. 

Central Michigan Life contacted Greer on his status, but has not received a response. 

Seven women have alleged to have been approached by Greer. Several told police Greer made sexual comments to them and referenced having a gun. On the day of his arraignment, Greer was dismissed from the CMU football team.

When he was arrested, Greer was charged with attempted kidnapping and attempt to commit criminal sexual conduct. Those charges were dismissed on July 31, but Greer was re-charged with three felonies when more women made reports to police.

Greer was housed at the Isabella County Jail from July 8 to Aug. 24. He bonded out of jail on a $450,000 cash-surety bond.
