Probably.Did Hurley actually yell eff you to Cofer before he said shut up?
Jeez. I couldn’t tell you what I just read, bruh, and that is o.k.So this "new" guy showed up on the TC yesterday with some insanely "inside" information.

No way that poster is 20 years old. I just went through the OC update thread and if their info is correct, they have to be a coaches child or a computer hacker to have that much info about EVERYTHING in our program. Pretty hard to believe they are 20. Sure reminds me of FSUFOREVERANDEVERSo this "new" guy showed up on the TC yesterday with some insanely "inside" information.

Show this to your kids in middle or.high school who think what they post dosen't matter. Thankfully my daughter is on the school and county council for student government and her posts are always scrutinized. She wasn't even allowed to post a picture with a plastic cup. Made my stalking life easier!Got to think there is a market for someone who does nothing but goes in scrubs peoples twitter accounts.
I'm so glad there was no internet when I was that age.Show this to your kids in middle or.high school who think what they post dosen't matter.

So for those of us who didn't follow the nth level details from Baylor, how much involvement did Kendal have? Or how much intentional ignorance was there?
Is this guilt by association, guilt by family ties, immoral behavior or immoral adjacent?
For the sake of this thread, let this be the last thing said about this.There was so much going it would be impossible for Kendall not to have known what was going on. Without looking it up for exact numbers it was basically 50something women raped by 30something football players over about a four year period. So it makes our past of 1-3 alleged rapes a year look quaint.
Considering 5-20% of college women are raped depending on definition and study, the FSU football allegations are actually well below what 85 standard college guys would get into while Baylor is well in excess (because if 30something came forward you know the real number is double to quadruple that).
And it was more than just the actual rapes, there was an open rape culture encouraged in the players. Everything from asking recruits if they “like white women” and then having open Gang rape parties where players were pulling trains (2 with more than 10 players on a passed out woman) and bragging about it on social media.
I know there’s a quote from Kendall where he obviously knew about the rape culture. I’ll do a quick look for it.
But yeah, there’s no way Kendall Briles was unaware of what was going on in Baylor. It was too huge not to be aware and therefore a willing accomplice.

Thanks for the recap though, it was needed. I remember the scandals, but I could barely pay attention to other schools when we were fake news during that time.Ok, then I’ll leave it at.....the Baylor situation was not a couple of isolated incidents but a part of their culture and it was so prevalent there is no way Kendall can pretend to be out of the loop. And I am not remotely happy we are even considering allowing him to be here. Some things are more important than football.
You have no idea how happy I am about that. Especially when I was in a heavy metal Korn-rip-off band in my late teens early 20s. Fortunately there is almost no evidence left.

Yeah it was a joke. We were front page for years because of one player and one accuser and then you have probably hundreds in four years at Baylor. It’s not even on the same plane.
Yeah, your summary is some of what I remember, I guess I was more asking what ever came back on him. As indicated above, so much going on, how could he be oblivious. And part of why I don't know much is due to the never ending JW news overshadowing ALL other news. That was the era for a player to get in trouble and hide just outside the JW spotlight.
STOP IT!
Tribe. Stop dude.
I can't stop that. I can stop it here.That was very tame compared to the allegations, I wasn’t even remotely trying to incite something. And if we hire him you’d better get used to reading a LOT about what went down.
I think you got that backwards.looks like Tennessee turned down Briles
I think you got that backwards.
You saw what happened in Knoxville with Schiano last year.Blecch, looks like Tennessee turned down Briles and signed OSU’s OC instead. Sucks when SEC teams have more character as it looks like Briles is now a done deal to FSU.
As far as Kendall, other than being fired I don’t think there were any repercussions.
Kendall wasn't fired, he was retained on staff after all of the stuff went down. Then a year later went to FAU. Then to Houston.
When does a Christmas story start playing? I am kinda jonesing for a Charlie Brown Christmas as well.Time to change the subject before someone slams the ban hammer....
So, its going to get into the 40s here tonight. What do you Northerners got for lows?

If not for the lost decade, we'd be ahead for years to come!
