you know, this doesn't even really bother me that much to be honest. It's a negotiated settlement between two parties that had a contract. If Baylor was 100% in the clear they wouldn't have paid him a dime.

I read this as more of a self indictment by Baylor that they were more complicit in this than they want publicly acknowledged. To the tune of about $15MM complicit it would appear which, again reading tea leaves here, seems like he maybe had a little on them but not a lot.

Not commenting on my personal wish to see Briles turked by a syphilitic bear or to see Baylor burnt to the ground. Just that I don't see this as an indictment of the legal system so much as 2 scumbag parties doing business.

To me the fact he was owed $40M and settled for less than $15M shortly after meeting with Pepper Hamilton basically was a "we'll give you something to go away but here's what we have on you, now take this and walk away and keep your mouth shut" settlement. If Baylor didn't have anything on him or was in the wrong, that number would have been a LOT higher.

So they take their legal advice from Cardinal Bernard Law?

Wish the little fucking weasel had been dumb enough to go to the mattresses over it. Would have loved to have seen his name and reputation completely plunger fucked in the press.

And all the dirt on both sides come out in a public arena. Find it very hard to believe Briles was the only coach that knew anything. And Starr was the only guy in the University proper that knew anything.

Just listened to an interview with the new Baylor head coach Jim Grobe on Mike and Mike. my impression, which could be 100% wrong, is that not much will change at Baylor. His answers were the perfect definition of "coach speak", which is understandable I guess, but bleah.......
