This thread makes it sound like 'many' had some idea that Boren could be a sexual predator. No word yet on what 'many' knew when or if they reported it appropriately.

The Boren closet has officially been opened.

Is the Stoops closet next?

So, if there is reasonable suggestion that this happened while he was at OU, what are the chances that the Big 12 fines OU and withholds 25% of their funds? 0%?

About freaking time. But true, Big U presidents mostly get a pass on these kind of shenanigans.

This is strange is this done as a vendetta by the new President? Very stupid if so. This will back fire on the whole school like the Pepper Hamilton investigation did.

OU is having some kind of mini-civil war among their leadership....just like Baylor has had.

Not sure what the cause of it is......but one faction is pro Boren and the other is for the new President.

The new president even fired some of Borens boyfriends (oh sorry I mean assistant deans) just this past fall.

[The Boren family has a strong interest in public policy and three generations of public service. His father, Lyle Boren, served in the U.S. House of Representatives (OK-04) from 1937 to 1947. His son, Dan Boren, served in the U.S. House of Representatives (OK-02) from 2005 to 2013.]

Whole family is dug in like ticks into our Federal government.

UT would be all for this, then announce leaving the Big 12 the next day.

The allegation goes back to 1978. How bad is our conference that he was a decision maker? What did Bowlsby know and when did he know it?

Some fun old quotes from Boren in light of this development....

https://www.tulsaworld.com/sportsextra/ousportsextra/baylor-scandal-strikes-a-chord-with-ou-president-david-boren/article_5fc06f6c-deef-544c-9a9f-9ac32b0456d1.html

In last week's meeting with the Tulsa World editorial board, Boren provided more context. The Baylor situation strikes a nerve with Boren, he said, because despite OU's own issues, it has worked hard to ensure such institutional failure could never happen in Norman.

"That was horrifying to hear about, because what we do is so contrary to that kind of model," Boren said.

Boren later clarified his comments via a statement that read in part, "We all need to understand that we are fighting a culture that all too often puts the blame on victims of sexual violence instead of on the perpetrator. We must all work together to bring the right kind of cultural change to our campus."

I wonder if we could buy it. It also looks like Abner McCall.

Joking aside. It sounds like the new president of OU is really screwing up the place. He sounds like he is going to make even Sloan great as a comparison. Imagine if Sloan has started an investigation into Reynolds shortly after taking over and intentionally set off a civil war at the school. I doubt he lasts long there.

he led the charge to fine us. M'fer needs to burn.

Bowlsby should be sweating. that is, if he's not in a cheap hotel with Boren.

Mwahahahahahaha! Justice is served!!!!

How does it taste, Boren???

Bowlsby IS in a cheap hotel (well, probably motel) with Boren. Footing the bill with Baylor's withheld revenue.

Please don't hijack the thread.

And if I remember correctly, X has been calling this behavior out on Boren for a long time.

Boren is an opportunist.
Whether it be a young male aide who is a homosexual and looks up to Boren to help his career, a bumbling idiot football coach like Art Briles who clearly didn't have any idea what he was doing post firing, or a school that struggling trying cool things off while the coach blew himself into a lifetime ban, Boren knew how to hit the weaknesses for his own gain.

Nonetheless, Boren took on the new man at OU. The new man isn't into group rallies and running around promoting diversity. The new man is into fixing OU's financial mess, even at the expense of precious Boren's legacy.

The Big 12 looks terrible. They were used like an ass tool.

So, to Recap (if this correct):

Mixon punches a women he doesn't know at all in the face, breaking several bones in her body - caught on video. The dialogue is along the line, he asked for BJ from her b/c its his birthday, she says no, she sucker-punches her and leaves. He would later play the race card, like that means anything.

Boren, their AD, and Stoops view the Mixon tape, whereas the public could not. They think he should stay.

Punishment? He got redshirted. Never left campus. They called it "a year long suspension". The press, being the wh@res they are, back this. Think the punishment fits the crime.

Mixon returns - they win 2 conference titles.

Video comes out - Mixon goes Pro, Stoops retires which we assume due to his health.

2 years later, Mixon is starting RB for the Bengals. Stoops returns to coaching with the XFL. Decades of Boren's dirty laundry comes to light.

Is that right?

Sounds like the new President doesnt really know he is opening the school up to alot of sexual harrassment claims being made and alot of litigation. Did he study university management under our BOR? He really is so petty that he will blow up the school because Boren contradicted him publicly regarding OU's financial situation? Because I bet that is what is going to end up happening as a result of this move, he is about to blow up the school.

Nothing to celebrate here. If any bit true, just disgusting. And the conference isn't helped by having OU's current administration on a bender to pay back the prior administration. Someone in state government in Oklahoma really needs to rein in that maniac that is currently the president of OU. Very bad for the institution.

If the prior president was doing what he was accused of doing, the taxpayers of Oklahoma deserve to know the truth. It's a state school, it's state politics, its R's vs. D's, it's tax money, it's power. There is no rein that in.

Don't forget the ballad of Frank Shannon. During this same time frame he was found guilty of sexual assault by OU....and then they let him back on the team. Well played Boren.
