Baylor Hires Jim Grobe---Update---AD Resigns

[Marshal Dillon]

Interesting. A total change in personality & offensive philosophy.

Baylor has hired former Wake Forest coach Jim Grobe on an interim basis to replace Art Briles, sources told ESPN on Monday.

According to sources, the Bears also considered former San Francisco 49ers coach Mike Singletary, who is a former Baylor All-American, and current defensive coordinator Phil Bennett for the job before settling on Grobe, who last coached in college in 2013.

Grobe, a native of Huntington, West Virginia, coached at Ohio from 1995 to 2000 and Wake Forest from 2001 to 2013. He had a 77-82 record in 13 seasons with the Demon Deacons and his teams played in five bowl games. In 2006, Grobe guided Wake Forest to an 11-3 record and an unlikely ACC championship.

Briles, 60, had eight years left on a contract that paid him nearly $6 million per season, which made him the Big 12's highest-paid coach.

UPDATE OF BAYLOR MESS

AD resigns after Grobe hiring.

Baylor athletic director Ian McCaw stepped down Monday, not long after the school named former Wake Forest coach Jim Grobe as its interim football coach.

McCaw, in a statement released by Baylor early Monday night, said "after much reflection and prayer, I have decided that a change in athletics department leadership is in Baylor University's best interest in order to promote the unity, healing and restoration that must occur in order to move forward."

Did he pray and reflect after the raped/sexually assaulted women reported the incident to him? Has he given these women a second thought? I doubt it.

You know MD you might be right, I don't know for sure. One thing I will say is if this was a Baptist University the example they all set is why the world today will not turn and accept Christ. It breaks my heart to see this type of actions take place where our children should be most protected. RTR!

They are not affiliated with the Southern Baptist Association but they do have a seminar on campus per an article that I read last week. I was thinking the same as you.

Down goes Starr but he still draws a big salary as a teacher.

Baylor's Ken Starr is also stepping down as the school's chancellor.
Starr told ESPN that he was doing so as "a matter of conscience." He was the focus of an Outside the Lines episode Thursday afternoon where he announced his resignation as chancellor.

OK I heard or read it somewhere they had a Baptist works in there somewhere and I thought man what a bad example. Thanks for that bit of info cause it let's me know they aren't affiliated in anyway. RTR!

Baylor has so far denied new recruits the right to go elsewhere. This is ridiculous & will cause another huge wave of negative publicity. They are totally tone deaf. Amazing.

Should have known.     :face palm:

[Auburn's top quarterback target is back on the market.

Kellen Mond, a four-star recruit from the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla., announced his decommitment from Baylor on Wednesday.

Mond told Jeff Jones of News 4 San Antonio that Auburn is probably now his leader, with Texas A&M and Ohio State also in the mix (see video below). He visited Auburn in April.

Well Baylor should do the right thing and let these kids go elsewhere because if they came for the coach rather than the university, they won't be worth a flip on the field. RTR!

True.
Punish the ones involved, and release the others.
