I'm sure I'll get 40 down votes and everyone calling me a dipshit or something and I know it would never happen but how would you feel about us getting someone like briles or someone similar. Yeah he's the scum of the earth Yada Yada Yada bit the guy wins. Would you take a sleeze ball who would get you 10+ wins at least once every 3 years in the sec even if he recruited thugs and lowlifes? Honestly, I might because he's not my preacher he's a football coach his job is to win games and as long as the thugs don't commit crimes while their on the hill and stay eligible idgaf. I wanna see a championship football team in fayettville.

Bad enough that I would have (willingly) dealt with Petrino's tom foolery. All of that would have been forgotten with time and W's on Saturday.

sorry about that didn't catch it. You know he didn't actually rape anyone and I don't think he actually covered up rape he just made a mistake accepting a a guy who already had a sexual assault charge thinking he'd changed

That dude was told about several players who had allegations ranging from domestic violence, to rape, to aggravated assault, etc. and did nothing to discipline them. I wouldn't attend a Hog football game for the rest of my life if that man ever got a job here, because that's not careless or inconsiderate; that's a man who cares more about W-L's than basic moral integrity, such as not wanting to see other people get raped.

That being said, if I was our AD, I wouldn't have fired Petrino if he just crashed his bike. Unfortunately, he put his mistress on the payroll, and that's corruption, not just an affair.

What, like rape people? As long as the thugs don't commit crimes? That's kind of what fricking makes them thugs.

And I want to see a man born in 1955 with his priorities a little more straight. Wish in one hand, shite in the other.

No one asserted that Art Briles was the rapist. And please dissect that last statement. No one commits full-on sexual assault, gets away without harsh punishment, and just "changes". That goes against everything we've learned about human psychology in our time on Earth.

I'm willing to accept that maybe Briles didn't know quite everything that was going on at his program. But he was the man charged with bringing football success to Baylor, and he did so with rave, unprecedented results. Once he did so, he was faced with the burden of raised expectations and continued success. He didn't narrowly miss the playoffs a couple years in a row without turning his back and plugging his ears to some problems within the program. You can't do that when downright sinister shite is going on.

Baylor was closer to a national championship than we ever were with Petrino, and needed Briles magnitudes more than we needed Petrino if they wanted to have any kind of relevance. And he still got fired. Ruminate on that for a moment.

Yeah I don't want anyone commuting crimes at the University but I'm ok with taking questionable charter guys to get the results I want.

I'd give My left nut to have Bobby back. And I've never been one of those guys until now. I'm tired of this shitshow this is year 4 and we look like fricking shite. We deserve better

I just don't understand why you think that we can fill the roster up with guys who have a history of causing problems and expect them to not cause any problems.

Alabama has a strict policy on many things. Sure. a little weed will get you a 2nd chance, but lordy mercy.. RAPE?

Florida State isn't winning anything currently and they have kicked several off. What? No they don't...you equate "Crab Legs" with rape?

Georgia... Has been as stiff as a unripe cucumber on small, petty crimes under Richt... Smart is too new to know...

Florida.. Yep, and Myer left after the fiasco of a murdering tight end.



Dude, I have kids... Girls, and if we perpetuate a culture of acceptance of anyone using/abusing/assaulting women. We are scum of the earth.

I want to win badly, but I value humanity above championships.

Where did I say rape was ok? Nowhere. All I'm saying is we need to say the hell with being squeeky clean and start focusing on winning. I do not condone rape or anything similar to it that happened at baylor but I do think we could use a coach who doesn't mind overlooking a few minor character flaws. The fact that we never offered byers is proof beilama probably won't cut it. When you've got talent like tgat in a state like ours that usually doesn't have much talent you don't let it waltz to Tuscaloosa.

There is literally nothing Jeff Long or any other AD could say to justify hiring Art Briles
