Art Briles is no longer Baylor's head coach.
 
The school fired Briles Thursday as it prepared to reportedly release the findings of an independent investigation into the way the school has handled accusations of sexual assaults.

While disappointing, it's not surprising. You can't run a program that has had those kinds of issues for very long.

I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!

There was no other option.

Probably a week or more late in doing so. They only delayed the inevitable.

Whoa. I just read where Baylor admits to "directly discouraging some complainants from reporting and retaliated against one for reporting sexual assault."

 

That's gotta be "death penalty" area, right?

As close to it as the NCAA is willing to do in 2016.

 

And Briles is done.

No kidding. With stuff like "Sexual Assault" and "cover-up" attached to your name, I don't know who will hire him. At least, not until the fervor dies down some.

Considering all the coaches who have returned after various scandals in college athletics, I doubt he's done. He'll end up at a 1-AA school or somewhere like that in 2017, completely rebuild that program in a few seasons, and work his way back up to a school in a power five conference.

If Penn State didn't get the death penalty, no school ever will again.

What Penn State got was supposed to be worse than the death penalty.

Nah, his age coupled with these things will be a huge a huge deterrent.

It's the players that should be punished.... not the coaches that have nothing to so with the actual assault. Let one woman beater go and half your recruiting class becomes worried about their future as well. Fire a coach and all is good...

I ain't no monkey... I'm an ape.

So the coaches who did nothing to enforce repercussions for sexual assaults so players could play should face no blame?

Baylor regents are considering suspending Briles for one year now and will vote on it. Wow.

From what I understand Briles lawyered up. Media is speculating Baylor doesn't have the means to fire him and would likely lose in a legal battle.

It's also a monetary decision. They'd still owe him $40 million, plus then paying a new coach.

Money > Morals, apparently.

So that is more important than distancing themselves from someone who turned a blind eye to his players assaulting women? Got it.

Well, at least to the good folks who run the Baylor Athletic program it is.
