Of course they are already suggesting his comments could be the death sentence for his chances of making the Cowboys' roster.

Not sure the writer of the story has been keeping up with... well... the story.

This is the problem the writer of the story is so wrong on his facts it is unbelievable. Trying to explain the nuances of fact though is a losing battle cause the media doesn't want the narrative challenged. K.D. obviously not the most articulate person just did not say what is obvious he meant to say very well. Sort of like CAB. It's a shame.

Good for KD. I always felt like KD was kind of on the cocky side and not quite a team player, but I tip my hat to him for standing up for his coach.

I am sure the BOR water carriers will be here shortly spouting CABer and their other perceived insulting nicknames. What exactly is a CABer? If it is anyone that feels like Coach Art Briles got SCREWED by Baylor, I guess I am in the CABer camp. As the evidence and details slowly trickle out, it looks more and more like he and his coaching staff were scapegoated by some very dishonest and self-serving people.

Is it too late for him to enroll September 1 and play his senior year?

No way. This team has so much talent at receiver that KD would probably be relegated to the Scout Team.

I figured he might want to pickup a diploma. Rico and him can strike up a band.

Gotta get those clicks though, am I right? Any old news we could possibly dredge up to get some attention!

It's been years, sick of hearing about this *****

No knock on KD, but I love the headline.

Imagine there are people in the media who create fake news!! Who knew? Besides anyone who has ever heard of/paid attention to Dan Rather, CNN, espn, Rolling Stone, NY Times, etc. It might be easier to compile a list of media outlets/journalists that still have some integrity!

Even the report in the link above misconstrues what Cannon said. He clearly said he though the news reports were wrong, not the victims making accusations. How is that "insulting to the victims"? And where was this "overwhelming evidence"? I've never seen it reported anywhere. Cannon's biggest mistake was probably talking to the toad from FWST in the first place.

I am so ready for football. It will be easier to ignore the insanity coming out of Washington and the newsrooms reporting on it all.

Did he play high like Josh Gordon?
Future former NFL camp body gets very little pub while All Pro (when he is off coke and weed) could get front page headlines.

There's a moving story here if he doesn't match the company line. Let's hope he has enough money to finish school after he gives rap and hip hop a chance. He is too short for the NBA.
He ll need street cred to be a hip hop star. Former jocks trying music are a dime a dozen. I m not sold on the mean streets of Mount Plesant or whatever tall tree town in the sticks to produce hip hop stars.

It's pretty cheap for some posters on here to continually trash former Baylor players. It's clear that these posters never want players from the Briles years to succeed because it might reflect positively on Art.

Like Cannon was going to comment negatively after Briles' crew made them their boy. He did not have the character to run his drills at 49er mini camp. Why should the football world or the world care what some college dropout turned camp body thinks?

Sickening isn't it. These guys are not Baylor fans and probably not alumni. They are simply BOR shrills.

I root for the name on the front of the jersey. If you believe these guys get national championship treatment for life after winning it all, you are clueless.
He can pay for the rest of his education. He is going to need his 49er signing bonus.

So true, the posters on the pay board will tell you to move on it was Art's fault but are the first ones to jump on former players for telling their side of the story, shameful.

Agree and about 90%+ of the time it's easy to spot them.

I despise Mac Engel, as much as anyone, but this article has no connection whatsoever to him or the Ft. Worth Star Telegram...from what I can tell.

Just FYI

Sorry, that is bad on my part. I read the article and saw where he was quoted by Mac to say that he didn't think everything they said about Baylor/Briles was true. I should have gone to the top of the page to see the writer of the article.


My mistake.

That or he would only be used on plays where we run or throw the ball 5 yards down field..... wait that is every play we run 1st- 3rd quarter......

He would be walking back to the huddle after an incompletion, talking to the quarterback and pointing where he wanted it thrown while the opposing defensive backs would be getting in their two cents with smiles on their faces.

Source was Mac with 247 doing an article to get clicks.

Not sure why KD would be asked as he wasn't on campus during the times investigated, if I remember right. KD hasn't been in trouble to my knowledge and was a good kid when we interviewed him. He's a man now and trying to earn a living. I hope he makes it, despite the odds against him. Nobody on the Cowboys have his top end speed, nobody.

He can also come back to complete his degree on Baylor's dime since he left early for the draft, if I remember right.

Reminds me of all you sniveling apologists still clinging to the soiled and tattered robe all while rejoicing in Rhule's 1-11 start.

I'm assuming this is a joke? KD was a legit heisman watch list guy before everything got blown to hell.

KD had a good freshman campaign and never improved beyond it.

Who would that be? I don't know anyone rejoicing in Rhules start. I wish he could be half of what Briles was. I truly do. It is what it is and I can't change it so I want him to win. He just doesn't seem to grasp his situation. I wish he was smart enough to build on what he had in house and not ask a sports car to pull a plow. I want him to win. I want Baylor to win.

Do you? I think you prefer to preach and be sanctimonious. I think you like to cover for your BOR buddies. I think that is what makes you tick. You will probably feed us a bs line that it's only integrity that matters like no one else who wants to win cares about integrity or some line of bs like that.
