Those evil text messages. What a better way to find out information than to look on company phones!
Have you seen "those evil text messages" or have you seen the sniplets that the boi published?

Showing homemade porn to others is still a crime if not all the participants consented to it's being shown to others. If someone starred in a sex tape unbeknownst to them, that is even more more serious. Either way this is something that has to be dealt with and the crime of sexual assault is not the only thing that gives rise to Title IX issues.
Stupid damn kids! Thank God back in the early eighties there were no cell phones and nobody knew what this internet thing was.

It's amazing how many of you are missing the point. These kinds of things are going to happen at every school. But what Briles did wrong is he let sexual assault allegations that he was made aware of never leave his office (or people within his staff). And tangently, Briles May have taken higher risk chances on guys. So unless Rhule tried to hide these allegations and unless Rhule brought in guys with questionable character, the situations aren't the same. Plain and simple.
"In particular, at this time we are unaware of any situation where you personally had contact with anyone who directly reported to you being the victim of sexual assault or that you directly discouraged the victim of an alleged sexual assault from reporting to law enforcement or University officials. Nor are we aware of any situation where you played a student athlete who had been found responsible for sexual assault.


Not sure this is totally correct. Or maybe be BU is just trying to have it both ways here.
But you missed his main error. He said "tangently" when what he obviously meant, anyone with a BU education would know, the word is "tangentially". Let's get back to the essentials here.

We all know the answer. The question itself is just doubling down on conspiracy.

It is the moving target that is the butt hurt conspiracy theorist.

We demand to know - they are told (FofF)
We demand details - they are given details (WSJ)
We demand more details - they are given more details (Shillinglaw)

Now it's we demand you prove those details are real. It will never stop, it will only move.

Unless there is a massive JFK like information dump in the future we are never going to see all the original docs. So it comes down to can the regents back up what they released. Cannon, Briles, Shillinglaw, and even BLR all behave as if the information they provided can. And the guys in the black T-shirts can stomp their feet as say can not.

And tangently, Briles May have taken higher risk chances on guys. So unless Rhule tried to hide these allegations and unless Rhule brought in guys with questionable character, the situations aren't the same. Plain and simple.
1. There certainly are questions as to how Briles handled complaints from accusers who chose to report the alleged crime to the football coach rather than to the university, the university police department, local PD, a doctor, a SANE nurse, etc.

2. I don't know how things are now at Baylor, but when I was at Baylor, the head football coach was not held responsible for the actions of students who were not on the football team. At Baylor, most of the accused WERE NOT football players. So, the issue wasn't really how Briles handled alleged sexual assault cases as it was how Baylor University handled Title IX cases and then responded to media sensationalism.

3. Art Briles targeted the same recruits as every other football coach. Heck, by 2016, he didn't require bad players on the football team. He was getting almost all of the recruits he was targeting in the first place. And, how do you know who the bad apples are? A criminal record? Remember that juvenile records are sealed. Briles never recruited a recruit with an adult record in his 8 years at Baylor. Are you implying that the head football coach has a duty to interview a potential recruit's family, friends, teachers and other witnesses in determining what kind of kid he is? Does Baylor University? Or is an allegation that Briles went after "bad dudes" really a racist dog whistle for going after minority recruits from poorer neighborhoods?

Let's be brutally honest, here, Art Briles was going after the same athletes as Gary Patterson, Mack Brown, Mike Leach, etc.

None of those other guys were recruiting Cordell Dorsey at the end. I know that for a fact.

It appears that these girls aren't accusing anyone of assault. It was being turned into actresses to which they object.
Even that is rumor until there are charges. So, I guess we wait.

I don't get the video desire. I get that it is easy to do. Is it to brag/share or to have your own special porn? I show you what I did and you show me what you did and I probably never will?
I just figured that after all the "it's on us" training that these students have been through (and athletes even more so), that if there was an assault, it wouldn't have taken 2 days to report it. And since it is on video, it wouldn't take 3 months to decide responsibility.

By saying "None of those other guys were recruiting Cordell Dorsey at the end", are you inferring that Briles was but that Cordell chose ACU over Baylor?

You know I love you, but to post a D!ck pic, all you had to was to stick your Johnson in a donut, take a polaroid, then then place the picture at the bottom of the carton before dropping it off at Memorial.

Geesh, that has been going on long before I ever stepped foot on campus.

Thread by one of the usual suspects trying to hurt Rhule. A couple of attempts on the free board were deleted. I think it was discussed on the premium board free what I read from premium posters.

Can't we just kick the two players off the team and out of school and then pay them huge payouts prior to their impending lawsuits against Baylor? Geez it ain't rocket science people.

We recruited Dorsey until he was charged with indecency with a child charges. Pretty sure we started his recruiting again when grand jury no-billed him. He was definitely a risk from a PR perspective because the girl was like 11 years old.

Here's the deal: I am trying to be entertained by this pissing match.

It's not intellectually satisfying unless I am confident that you know what the **** you're talking about; right?

So, my issue isn't with you; it's with futile exercises in ignorance. There are arguments being made on partial information, facts out of context, mere assumption, and popular perspectives that have either been proven untrue - or that have no corroboration at all.

Just for illustration, let me show you how these things are perceived wrongfully: All of the issues revolve around the way to deal with sexual assault cases under Title IX. Almost every compliance department in the country had issues with Title IX compliance because the law was vague and unenforceable under law.

Second, I'll bet when most of you think about "sexual assault", you think about a man forcing a woman to the ground and having his way with her; right? What if I told you that touching the leg of your drunk date is considered "sexual assault" by today's standards? Would that change the way you look at things?

Finally, I have been told by both a Baylor donor and a UT donor that the fact that all these allegations came up after Art Briles turned down an opportunity to interview with Texas is no mere coincidence. So, that's also conjecture, but if you take it with all the other conjecture out there, you understand why, again, this argument is a futile exercise in ignorance. And, that's why your "denial" meme is not clever and doesn't really apply here.

And that's just another reason this thread truly sucks.

What crime has Cordell Dorsey ever been convicted of? What reason did the other programs back off? Every successful program takes a chance on a kid now and then. I am just not Baptist enough to judge anyone and everyone who has been arrested to be "bad dudes." And, maybe Art Briles or someone in his staff was just trying to give someone an opportunity to redeem themselves. (And how Christian is that?)

The concept of redemption appears notably absent from the Baylor context. We must remember her Christian mission. And all.

I'll say this. If he was no-billed by a Grand Jury, chances are he didn't do anything. Apparently, there was no mustard on that ham sandwich.

1. There certainly are questions as to how Briles handled complaints from accusers who chose to report the alleged crime to the football coach rather than to the university, the university police department, local PD, a doctor, a SANE nurse, etc.

2. I don't know how things are now at Baylor, but when I was at Baylor, the head football coach was not held responsible for the actions of students who were not on the football team. At Baylor, most of the accused WERE NOT football players. So, the issue wasn't really how Briles handled alleged sexual assault cases as it was how Baylor University handled Title IX cases and then responded to media sensationalism.

3. Art Briles targeted the same recruits as every other football coach. Heck, by 2016, he didn't require bad players on the football team. He was getting almost all of the recruits he was targeting in the first place. And, how do you know who the bad apples are? A criminal record? Remember that juvenile records are sealed. Briles never recruited a recruit with an adult record in his 8 years at Baylor. Are you implying that the head football coach has a duty to interview a potential recruit's family, friends, teachers and other witnesses in determining what kind of kid he is? Does Baylor University? Or is an allegation that Briles went after "bad dudes" really a racist dog whistle for going after minority recruits from poorer neighborhoods?

Let's be brutally honest, here, Art Briles was going after the same athletes as Gary Patterson, Mack Brown, Mike Leach, etc.

None of those other guys were recruiting Cordell Dorsey at the end. I know that for a fact.
What crime has Cordell Dorsey ever been convicted of? What reason did the other programs back off? Every successful program takes a chance on a kid now and then. I am just not Baptist enough to judge anyone and everyone who has been arrested to be "bad dudes." And, maybe Art Briles or someone in his staff was just trying to give someone an opportunity to redeem themselves. (And how Christian is that?)
I'll say this. If he was no-billed by a Grand Jury, chances are he didn't do anything. Apparently, there was no mustard on that ham sandwich.
If I recall correctly, and it wasn't reported in a whole lot of detail in the media, he wasn't in town at the time of some of what he was accused of doing so it couldn't have taken place as had been claimed. Of course, that doesn't mean he wasn't guilty of something else, but it is rather difficult to be in two places at the same time.

Just heard this from the Rope gossip investigator - Two members of the Baylor football program are being investigated for sexual assault in an incident that occurred in November at an off-campus location, according unnamed sources. Unnamed sources state that two unnamed members of the Baylor football team, both of whom redshirted in 2017, are among a group of four people being investigated for a sexual assault that allegedly occurred the night of Nov. 11, 2017. The alleged victims are reportedly members of the school's equestrian team. Special Veterinarian Rape Kits along with a team of Veterinarians were flown in from Texas A&M to examine the horses in question.

"Baylor University takes any allegation of sexual assault seriously, even if the accused players were just horsing around and playing ride em cowboy," Lori Fogleman, assistant vice president for media communications at the school told the Rope gossip investigator. "The university is unwavering in our commitment to follow our well-documented Title IX policy and procedures in regards to reporting and responding to incidents of sexual equine assault. Additionally, the university is required to protect the confidentiality of all parties involved to ensure a fair and equitable process and that proper equitation is used at all times. After all, horses lives matter."
