OT: Art Briles is a Scumbag

Seems that Art has no problem using a rape victim to leverage some more money out of Baylor... promising to show up to a deposition and offer an apology and support for her, and then not showing up after he reached a settlement with Baylor the next day.

Highlight: "[Briles] used the threat of helping Jasmin in her lawsuit against Baylor as leverage to negotiate his wrongful termination claim against Baylor," Zalkin said. "He doesn't care about victims. He never cared about victims. He's using victims. He used them to help build up his football program, and now he's using Jasmin to leverage more money out of Baylor."

Isn't there a group of boosters

that want him back?  They proposed that he serves a one-year "penalty" and then comes back to coach.  

I think the S. E. Massengill company must have their HQ on campus...

@East German Judge

You will never confuse me for a fan of Cheaty McSweatervest, but as far as I can recall, his vice was paying players, and acting like he was a pious man while doing so.

 

 

I dont recall the Bucks in trouble for rapes being covered up. So while I agree that Tres is a douche, it would seem Briles took it to the proverbial "next level".

I've seen other people

I've seen other people suggest he jump to the NFL. What NFL team would want him, even without his rape scandal? His offense at Baylor is pretty far off of what NFL teams run, and seems to take a far amount of flack as the exact kind of offense that leaves its players woefully unprepared to play at the pro level.

Not to mention, as bad as they are at actually dealing with it, the NFL definitely has a PR problem of its own that it's trying to manage regarding violence against women. Briles' involvement in the Baylor rape scandal absolutely is baggage the NFL doesn't want to deal with.

Not for head coach, but I think he's destined for a position coaching job. He could move up to a coordinator job eventually and show he can run a more NFL friendly scheme.

Baylor Fans Have Hit a New Low

When you think Baylor fans cannot sink any lower, they prove you wrong once again...

Look at this winner on Baylor Fan's site on this topic:

That's it. No one else owes her anything IMO.

 

And they are talking about a girl who got dragged away by the football player and raped.

Football fans are the worst...

At This Point...

At this point, I am pretty sure that Art Briles and really the entirety of Baylor's athletic department has blown away the field for the Fickle Finger Of Fate award, so here you go, Coach Briles and company, for your unwavering ability to be tone deaf, defiant, even smugly vindictive and calculatingly cold in the face of the suffering you have caused to others.

go to any of those schools down south. They have a different way of "looking" at women they seem to quik to want to blame the women for wearing clothes that are perceived to be promiscuous. I can't help but ask should we be telling  women to dress in Burkas?

89%. 3 years down the line

89%. 3 years down the line at an SEC school dying to be the next Auburn (team with meh history who's willing to take a huge risk for wins and $$).

Well, Auburn seems to fit

Well, Auburn seems to fit that profile. That is, if Malzahn doesn't start winning more games in conference again.

He'll show up at a mid-major next season. His program was trash but I think he is escaping any charges, right? Someone will pick him up. 100%

no way. this guy is branded right now and any institution would face way too much back lash if they hired him. maybe in 3 or 4 years after this has cooled and the next big scandal is all over the news, but not anytime soon.

I still find this whole sordid story hard to fathom and very disappointing. Briles should be motivated by shame to do the right things where he can. This ugly shit seems to add insult to injury from where I'm sitting.

Believe half of what you see...

Whilst I agree Briles may be scum, there is nothing in this that is surprising. No doubt his settlement with Baylor has a gag order. And that is likely to have been mandated by Baylor.

There is nothing offered by the writer (or the attorney) to show that Briles "used" his promise solely/primarily as a threat against Baylor. He may well have planned to do just what was stated.

I sure don't view a plaintiff's attorney as a reliable source.

And no, I'm not defending Briles. Just tired of the hack media that places a priority on grabbing headlines. And I find it sad that so many of us are wiling to believe whatever is written - as long as it's what we want to hear.

PS - I already quit drinking. Now I'm going to bed!

Why not another job? Bobby Petrino ring a bell. If Penn state could win again under Joe Pa they would have him dug up tonight . Scumbags and we never hear most of what goes on.

Is this news? I mean, he's a large reason why Baylor was as terrible a place as it was for sexual assault victims.

Speaking of scumbags,

Pat Haden doesn't want us to forget to include him on the list.  

While not quite on the same level of overall "scumbagginess" as Briles, Haden apparently has ( for over 15 years) been dipping into a foundation that was set up in the late 40's to benefit deserving low-income students with academic scholarships.  

Proving himself just as greedy as any other scumbag, Haden collected $1.2 million in fees from the Mayr Foundation while his sister-in-law  'earned' over $750,000 and his daughter raked in $470,000 between 1999 and 2014, the last year that the LA Times was able to put together complete documentation (although the flow of $$$ didn't stop until Haden, feeling the heat of the investigation, very recently stepped down as chairman).

Not only have the 3 of them claimed a total of over $2.4 million for doing little actual work  for those 15 years,  but Haden also funneled $1.76 million to USC over that same time period, most of which went to the USC Athletic Department.  The $$$ flowing to USC dwarfs what any other educational institution received over those 15 years----USC received nearly 4 times as much as the next highest recipient.

Come to Roost

My grandpa used to say of acts by deplorable men like this- "The chickens will come home to roost." What concerns me even more is that he used to be a high school coach. Who knows what he's gotten away with to this point.

PS: Selling an authentic Desmond Howard jersey on eBay. Bidding is at $30 right now (!). Don't snooze on it.

Its stuff like this that can ruin college football

I know these kind of things can cost college football or sports in general millions from fans that are on the fence and people thinking about following along. I know personally that all this crap from Joe Pa to this Pat Haden thing (I had never heard of till this morning) leaves a bad taste in my mouth and causes me to wonder when I am defending my love for college football over pro football or Nascar and others.
