He made his millions, he should retire.
Its more than football. I doubt many want to send their daughter to a school with that man employed.
We had a HORRIBLE hire WBB coach who took advantage of players. He had to be caught two times before he was fired. Glass houses...
We should hire him as OC and Petrino as head coach.
My Daughter goes to Tech....NO THANK YOU!
I was just laughing at all these self-righteous posts while simultaneously thinking about the fact that LA Tech was one of the country's worst abusers with the Tyler Summit case. Hopefully people don't look at LA Tech with the same unfair bias that some of these uninformed idiots do towards Baylor. At least the people that committed the abuse at Baylor were STUDENTS, and not paid LEADERS. In Tech's case, we actually had a faculty member (coach) commit the abuse. So its really foolish to see a post bragging "my daughter goes to Tech".....
What Tyler did was not excusable. It was horrible and a blemish on Tech that will last a while. What Briles did was MUCH worse. 50 rapes covered up vs. a 20+ year old coach having an affair with a player is not comparable. Saying that, we don't get through that by hiring a massive rape cover up artist. I wouldn't want to ever hire Summit for anything and I CERTAINLY wouldn't want to hire Briles. Briles needs to retire and go home with his money.
Neither Wonder Boy Summit nor Art Briles should ever hold a coaching position again. Period. End of story.
Next!
I didn’t really follow the Baylor situation that closely. How many rape convictions came out of that situation? And if Briles covered it up would that not have been obstruction, or he an accessory? How did he escape the legal system?
