You ought to be able to find several.
The circumstances are pretty well established and chronicled.

This stuff happens at Baylor all the time. We should be happy that at least no one was murdered this time (basketball player murder & cover up by coach).


Baylor is so small and out of the mainstream that their track record of murder, rape, etc remained localized.

Now that the football team has had a slight rise in prominence they have become a national story.

Baylor will fade soon and they will be an asterisk in the sports scene.



Surely no one would hire one of their many former head coaches to a Defensive Coordinator position, would they?

WCA, It's crazy how insulated these guys were from what were such enormous goings on within our conference at the time, huh?

In hindsight, Baylor University really did walk away--without looking back--from this stuff.

Insert :wow: emoji.

Well this is almost nothing. From the OP I thought we were going to read about major recruiting violations.


Yes this is a tragic situation, but I doubt Baylor or Briles will go down at all from this. This isn't even close to a Sandusky level scandal.

You really ought to get out more.

Baylor is a pimple on the butt of college athletics. They are small and meaningless most of the time. Occasionally they get lucky and win a few and the world is enamored. Then there is a tragic event and they fade back into the woodwork for a while.

They have a long history of violent events dating back to killing an Aggie in Waco in the 1920's.

There's nothing that turns my skin more than the casting of stones.
John 8:7 is my reason for being.
So you're wrong about that.
I don't cast stones; but I do feel sinful, corporal anger--and eventual forgiveness--towards those among us who frick up in very un-Christian-like ways.

We beat them by 4 TD's last time we played. Have a zero GAF factor about them.

Everyone who follows Texas football knows what Briles is. It is just in the national news now.
Baylor President Ken Starr is a POS but he is a survivor and will probably fire Briles.

Briles cheated when he was head coach at Stephenville, and he's never stopped. Dude is a great coach, but he's always been a cheating little shite.

A small handful of us Tejians "in the know" know that t.u. was able to secure its first 3 national championships forcing coeds to have sex with officials. And that this all started with the LaGrange ("Best little whorehouse in Texas") thing, as well. [The administration would "bust" a t.u. coed working there and then "trade" their silence for her "trading with" a referee].

And then there's what we all know re The Dallas Morning News in the 1980's and the death of SMU and the Southwest Conference.

But I'm yet ready to believe that THEY would undermine The Justice System in this way in order to regain and/or protect whatever it is that we think they could ever so plausibly regain...

EDIT:

I like totally made up like only 100% of this.

Am I missing something or did a player who was suspended indefinitely and never played a down for Baylor, is going to jail and will no longer be on the team?

Where's the controversy? Where's the cover up?

From what I can tell this is more a story of the media not asking questions or reporting on this story until recently. It's not like the entire thing was a secret, court cases are open record, as are arrest records.

The guy had a violent history? Don't half the player in the SEC have a violent history?

Does America no longer believe in due process? Shouldn't the rights of the accused and victim both be upheld? What is the difference if he is dismissed from the team before or after the verdict? The outcome is the same.

If anything, people should be outraged at this judge's decision, 180 days in jail for rape? That's ridiculous, the real investigation should be the competency of this judge. The jury recommended 8 years.
