What reason does that kid have to lie? Is there any motive?
And even if he is lying, all those assaults still happened on his watch.
1. He has to be lying somewhere. His first story was that no assault took place and that he didn't even know the girl had been raped. He said he was just giving her a ride home. He was either lying to the Grand Jury and in his interview regarding what he told the Grand Jury or he's lying now.
1a. As for motive, if he was legitimately assaulted/ battered or hell even if he can convince a jury regardless of truth then he has a civil case against Curt Maggitt who just happens to be going pro this year (some thought he wouldn't make it due to injury but he got a combine invite) and he'd also have a case against Jones and UT. Pretty obvious motive especially since Bowles will very likely not play pro football.
1b. Because this is civil court we're talking about Bowles can also claim he was forced out despite the fact that everyone knew he was transferring well before the night in question.
2. That is demonstrably false. The lawsuit reaches back MANY years/decades and includes non-football players.

I probably missed it somewhere in all these stories, but do we actually know what Bowles told the grand jury? We know what he said in the interview afterward, and it certainly does not match the sworn affidavit. But if the former is a lie, it doesn't make him guilty of perjury, whereas lying in the latter would.

So there aren't multiple sexual assault cases that are alleged to have occurred during his tenure as coach? I really doubt the entire coaching staff of the university would be coming to his defense if that weren't the case.
Nice deflection, though.
