Am I the only one that thinks most of this is BS?
The unloading of all of the crap just to show volume of "evidence". For example, the whole Ahmad Dixon deal was nothing. The victim retracted. Story over. Yet OTL mentions it. Like a litany. In 2 weeks this is over. I don't think anyone, be it Starr or Briles participated in a cover up. If anyone on this planet knows how cover ups kill, it's Justice Starr.

Baylor: Proud new branch campus of Ped State University. Unbowed and Unashamed.

(PedState was an easy transition from Penn. Baylor has certainly earned the same honor.
Can't think of an appropriate "B" word. But RaperU comes to mind.)

All hail the glorious return of THujone. How would we endure the madness without him?

Funniest damn thing, but when I think of Art Briles, this is EXACTLY how I see him.

Pretty sure this is also exactly what JC has to say about the situation.

Not surprising that both Phil Taylor and Shawn Oakman "transferred" from Penn State to Baylor. An easy transition from one culture of corruption to another.

Briles, Baylor heap shame on themselves

.../snip/...

While the school was determining what to do with the results of a long-awaited and unfortunately much-needed investigation into the athletic department's (mis)handling of rape and assault allegations, ESPN added questions that need to be answered.

The network's "Outside the Lines" program documented more previously unreported incidents involving alleged assaults on women committed by football players, including an alleged victim who says she wasn't interviewed by the law firm Pepper Hamilton, which Baylor hired to investigate itself.

Don't look for Baylor to do the right thing and release the report. Its findings won't be flattering to the Baylor athletic department.

According to various media reports, the number of women who have reported to police or school officials that they were raped or otherwise assaulted by Baylor football players since Briles became the head coach in 2008, is in the double digits.

That such allegations can be charted like fumbles and interceptions is in and of itself astonishing.

But there are multiple claims Briles and Baylor president Ken Starr knew of accusations but did not take appropriate measures to discipline the players - some received no reported team or school punishment - or protect other students from potential danger.

That is inexcusable.

Briles is not responsible for the criminal behavior of his players.

It is law enforcement's job to enforce the law.

But the coach is responsible for how the university treats his players - when and for what those players are disciplined, and which players deserve to represent the school on scholarships - on the football field.

Baylor's athletic department is being accused of establishing an atmosphere in which students believed football players could get away with attacking female students.

How sad and disgusting, particularly for a university that proudly waves a religious banner that is supposed to separate it from so many other heathen institutions.

This is not the price a school must pay to win football games.

And ignorance is no excuse when a football program faces this many horrific accusations.

After reading through the blog posts Muck posted, this stood out to me:
Pepper Hamilton, a law firm that actually has a history of siding with Universities (Google "Occidental College") was paid by Baylor to conduct an independent investigation of the Title IX office and see if our complaints were founded.

And that is what the PR dept is hiding behind right now with no further comments.
