More Bad News About Baylor & Art Briles

[ricky023]

Wow MD this is going to get really dirty before it's over. This might even be worse than the Penn State scandal, do you think? RTR!

The only thing worse than 30 years of child molesting is murder. Rape is a VERY close 2nd, maybe dead even.

The difference in my mind is that Sandusky was one guy and they concealed it to avoid damaging the university's reputation, which is awful, and Penn State deserved the penalties they got if not more.

At Baylor though, the coaches and admin created an atmosphere of sexual abuse in order to attract players.  They were basically using a rape culture to recruit talented players.

The program ought to be shut down for at least a few years if not permanently. But the NCAA doesn't have the balls to do it, and the Big XII will prioritize having enough teams over doing the right thing.

I think it depends on what they actually end up proving. Plus, wouldn't it be great if this proud Christian college shut the football program down itself, like SMU did? Also, it would be nice if these women won lawsuits in the range of $200-$300 mil total to really send a loud message.


 

  there is nothing about this place that is Christian MD. These are thugs playing football and hoodlums being brought in to win games. These are not Christian coaches or leaders of young people.
I would ask that these people not be compared to myself, or other Christian people. Thanks. RTR!

I didn't see a link to this ESPN article.  Not sure there is any new 'hard' info in it.

I was speaking somewhat sarcastically. They really need to clean house and take care of business.

Yes sir I certainly agree with you on that. RTR!

The hits just keep on coming for Baylor. Unfortunately he has Alabama ties as a former S&C coach.

Baylor fires assistant football coach arrested in prostitution sting

Baylor acknowledged it fired an assistant strength and conditioning coach Monday after he was arrested over the weekend for attempting to solicit a prostitute, according to the Waco Tribune.

The coach, Brandon Washington, came with first-year Baylor coach Matt Rhule from Temple University. He was charged with a Class B misdemeanor, which carries a maximum six months in jail and $2,000 fine in Texas. He was arrested at a hotel as part of a prostitution sting.

Washington was a former player at LSU on its 2003 national championship team and previously worked on the strength and conditioning staff at Alabama and Nicholls State.

Boy, I am glad it didn't happen while he was here on our staff. I sure hate this because our young kids are seeing things like this and it had to bring mixed up ideas about football. What is our world coming to? RTR!
