Wow, I had to double check to make sure that wasn't an Onion article.

It sort of is. Except, the joke's on us.

From 2011 to 2014 the school did not have a Title IX coordinator who could have trained the football staff on how to properly handle the sexual assault complaints.

Durrrrrr These are adult males we're talking about here, right? With I.Q.s somewhere above the Forrest Gump range?

What in the unholy fucking hell did they need to have clarified for them about what to do when members of your team rape people?

I'm taking this a different way. I feel like the football staff needs to educate the new Title IX coordinator on the scale of how good a football player you are vs how much punishment is the minimum to keep them on the field. These Title IX coordinators are running around acting like every punishment should be 1) actually enforced, 2) strict for good players, and 3) actually enforced.

My initial reaction as well. If these guys don't already know that "cover it up" is not the appropriate response to a player being accused of rape, a Title IX coordinator telling them "don't cover up rapes" isn't going to do much good.

If money talks, Art Briles stays. And his sex-predator factory gets to power up again in 2017, female Baylor students and women of the greater Waco area be warned. We found out Monday morning that the coach responsible for the marauding rapists and let go last month was only mostly fired. ...Victims be damned, again, just as they still are at Penn State, where school officials care more about whitewashing the evil actions of a dead, venerated coach more than confronting the truth. From Happy Valley to the banks of the Brazos River, the absurd world of college football keeps sinking to new, sick depths.

At least there's some good news in there.

But also fuck Baylor for this even being a thing.

Also, over under on when that shows up on BWI for a "cheap shot" at Joesus?

Of course, how many times have we been told the nut cases at PedState are just a small, vocal minority? A lot of days it doesn't look that way.

Old alumni with deep pockets got used to winning football games. It'd be a damn shame to have to go back to losing because a couple girls got assaulted. Boys will be boys, you know. :hoke:

They enjoyed it so much, they went out and built a shiny new football stadium....all the while ignoring the fact that historical speed bump programs have a serious tendency to regress to the mean after a short while. Oregon seems to be the one program with a history of mediocrity bucking the trend and sticking around for more than a few years. Baylor is just the latest example of a program that will luck into a coach/system that allows them to make a name for themselves nationally until said coach/system either moves on to bigger/better things or gets himself fired.

And Oregon is only an aberration because of the hundreds of millions of clams that uncle Phil has pumped into the ad.

When the old white rich guys were kids women had no rights and of course boys will be boys. What happened to the good old days when a girl needed 3 male witnesses to press charges?

These are adult football coaches we're talking about, with I.Q.s somewhere around the Forrest Gump range.
