I am not saying what happened, but exploring the possibilities of what facts may come to light given what is already established.
But it seems plausible that Brown asserted a right/privilege to impose his sexual impulses on the accuser, which he then defended after the fact with a blend of 'you didn't stop me' and 'I'm sorry, I'll make it up to you with xxx, yyy, zzz.'
More like a Harvey Weinstein scenario where he isolates her as a sex target by maneuvering his power and resources as an enticement [of sorts] then performs his sexual gratification before an opportunity for refusal or consent arises.
These are not easy transgressions to litigate, and a lot of tangential matters become nearly dispositive when the particulars are so murky.

Yes, chances are he handled the relationship in a way that he could get in trouble with the league if she is credible.
Not sure how a court case would go. But, airing it out would be a mess.
