the Baylor Board of Regents votes tomorrow on to change his status to a 1 year suspension instead of being fired.
 
And let's not forget that football is a major religion down there.
They invented the Hail Mary pass. True story.

Its supposedly a very small minority that wants him back. Highly doubt it's likely they vote for this.

Still, the fact it's up for vote is ridiculous.
Exactly they should be ashamed of themselves for even considering this. Even if the vote is no reinstatement, they should be ridiculed and crucified for this action.

I'm shocked that Kenneth Starr hasn't released the names of the victims in order to protect his buddy. Maybe he has turned over a new leaf after all.
 
A suspension, instead of a termination, says 'you made some mistakes, but we don't find them so bad that we don't want to associate with you anymore'.

I'd be shocked if he is ever allowed back, and quite frankly, I would find it pretty disgusting that they would find any 'grey area' when it comes to turning a blind eye to sexual assault on campus.
 
If Art remains gone, there's a school I heard about that hired as their President a person who was supposed to have been involved in a cover-up protecting a star player while he was President of another school and a HC that was known to contact victims raped by players on his team.
That school also hired an AD who was fired from a PAC 12 School and one of the reasons she left was the football program had the worst graduation rate among the 72 major-conference universities and the men's basketball program had the worst graduation rate among Pac-12 schools.

Art would fit right , so that school dropping the underachieving ( but great recruiter) HC it has now and replacing him with a coach like Briles would keep its morally corrupt hiring practices intact and be bringing in someone that might be a better game-day coach while not missing a beat in the recruiting front.Also helps that the new HC has experience covering up for his players actions [winking]

Phelan.

It's Flutie-to-Phelan for the win. I don't remember his first name.
It was Gerard Phelan. To be truthful,I knew it was Phelan but I had to Google his first name.Rutgers made that catch happen by giving up our Miami game ,for some reason, so that they could play BC.
 
It is BayLOL and it would not surprise me one bit...
 
If Joe were alive when O'Brien was canned, you can bet they would have tried to get him back.

Any place that preaches morality over all there is a sex scandal lurking, I have not once seen an exception.

Don't forget that this same president said the notion that the University was paying off rape victims for decades was a fiction created by hostile media.
Oops.
Harrisburg Patriot News June 10, 2016
Judge to unseal records on Jerry Sandusky abuse claims from '70s, '80s in Penn State insurance case
 
From the Patriot News:
"Besides the 1976 case, Glazer's May 4 order cited separate cases in 1987 and 1988 in which unnamed assistant coaches witnessed or otherwise learned about inappropriate contact between Sandusky and unidentified children, and a 1988 case that was supposedly referred to Penn State's athletic director at the time."

Yet Joe didn't know?
 
Whoever at Baylor promoted the return of Briles should be dismissed from the Board of Regents. They are unfit to have any leadership responsibility and make a mockery of their role and understanding of priorities at a so-called "academic institution" and institute of "higher learning".
