Heard was hurt and didn't play in the Orange/White game. But Buechele easily outclassed Tyrone Swoopes, and didn't look like a freshman early enrollee. He just might end up starting against Notre Dame.

Not all that surprised by this to be honest. The ban seemed like a massive overreaction in the first place, really hurting the student-athlete more than anyone else, helping primarily those who seemed to be a little fearful of increased competition. Once the possibility that Congress might get involved was brought up, this was probably inevitable.

In a weird twist, he lived in the apartment that my SIL lived in last year.

BYU held their FanFest today near my house, so I decided to head on over.
I haven't talked to Kalani for years and I waited in line to see him. His dad saw me and was willing to take me upfront to him and I told him it's ok, just wanted to surprise him. I lived in NY almost the entire time he coached at Utah so I haven't seen him in over 10 years, needless to say, he was shocked to see me. It was great talking to him and pretty funny to get chastised by the head coach of my favorite program for not coming and seeing him earlier. Best part was the open invite to come down to the offices so he can introduce me to Ty Detmer and the other coaches and the team.

President contracts don't have buyouts, payoffs to negotiate.

The only way Briles was going anywhere was if he was caught sexually assaulting one of the girls himself. That program is scared to death of going back to what they were before he arrived. |

You usually don't have to pay a buyout in a for cause termination. It's just whether you have the guts to defend the for cause in court.

right, but it is always prudent to give your counsel fair opportunity to review the contract and advise if you have sufficient evidence "for cause" and if not to quietly negotiate an exit. |

The investigation must have turned up some crazy stuff because the firm they hired to do the investigation doesn't have a reputation for digging deep to get to the truth. They're hired to help spin and mitigate damage.

You'd think after the whole basketball fiasco that Baylor's athletic department would not want to get burned again.

It's a tough time to be a university dealing with stuff like this. You can't do too little, but you also can't do too much. More recently, I think the pendulum has swung in the direction of more media and legal commentator criticism towards universities who are too aggressive in addressing sexual misconduct of students against other students. I read a ton of stuff now about how universities should stay out of it completely and "leave it to the police".

We can't stay out of it even if we want to. I would want nothing more than to hand over any type of sexual related stuff over to the police and say have at it, however, title IX/ the federal government forces us to do things or risk funding. So, here I am investigating sexual assaults, sexual harassments, rapes, stalkings, relationship violence and anything else that falls under the title IX umbrella. Staying out of it isn't even an option anymore. Once it gets reported, we are on notice. Last edited by muns : 05-26-2016 at 11:22 AM. |

Those officers, at least at Baylor, are the same as any other Texas police officers and are a part of the criminal justice system. I'm just talking about the difference between university (non-police) investigations and discipline v. the criminal justice system. Quote:
And I think that's a good thing, and that this growing opinion to the contrary is backwards-thinking. It brings us back to a time where victims are ignored and have to just deal with it and see their rapists every day or drop out of college. Because criminal charges aren't always possible, it's a high standard, and it's ultimately up to the non-challengeable opinion of one prosecutor, or one officer. But, it's a whole thing right now, bolstered by some high-profile lawsuits. I hang out at /r/law a lot, and this is one of the more contentious issues there at the moment. And this is the rallying cry from progressive commentators like at Slate. Which makes it kind of scary - if there's both liberal and conservative voices that want campuses to ignore and defer this stuff, then it has real traction. This is the kind of stuff that's cited there. College rape: Campus sexual assault is a serious problem. But the efforts to protect women are infringing on the civil rights of men. The police, not universities, should be handling rape accusations | The John William Pope Center for Higher Education Policy For Students Accused Of Campus Rape, Legal Victories Win Back Rights : NPR Several students win recent lawsuits against colleges that punished them for sexual assault Police, not colleges, should investigate sex assaults on campus (David M. Rubin) | syracuse.com But maybe the Baylor thing transcends all this and they were actively thwarting police investigations. And ya, there's Title IX, but this is more policy-driven, emotion-based reactions, that I guess include calls for changing the law or interpreting it differently.

Just from reading the broad strokes on it that I have seen...it's very damning for Briles and his staff.
If any of them coach again, it will be to soon.

I don't see Briles landing another D1 head coaching job. The best he can probably do is sit out a couple of years and get a non P5 OC job.
Any AD that even throws his name in for consideration should be fired. |
