X = blah blah blah
Fify. In June 2019, the Briles versus regent board and former rogue regents is over. Time to enjoy Charlie Brewer and company make a strong run in 2019.Timbear said:
X = nobody buys Briles bull outside the bubble and could care less what his Waco based t shirt fan base cares. He is 3A coach ran by one guy.
You know as well as I do that they wouldn't boot or ban anyone for coming up with creative strategies to protect the institution. The decision had already been made to blow up the football program and scapegoat Coach Briles to try and protect the institution. What's an extra NCAA violation to save a few million? A few extra losses?PartyBear said:
If he is correct and a Regent did suggest the BOR commit an NCAA violation for purposes of framing Briles for it, that Regent better have been booted and banned from the university.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your Christian university.
Like the earlier column, a very fair and thoughtful interview.boognish_bear said:
10 minute interview of Mac
This is an excellent synopsis of much of today's print/online media. Well said.bunation said:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Briles, that you were one of the many marks whom/which I choose to write self-serving fabrications. Why? ...just because; as a member of the media elite, which is no longer held to any standard of integrity/principles, I can. We now tell you what your opinions are;"

What I think is hilarious is how many of the 365 Bubble Club thought Engel was the antichrist for a couple of years. Now that Engel is changing his tune he is all of the sudden a great sportswriter????
The damage was done. His repair job is a band aid on a gaping ax wound.
You last line is pretty much fact, and Engal was almost saying just as much in his column. They all failed at their jobs miserably.Thee University said:Thee University said:

Worth repeating to all you willing to forgive Engel and welcome him onto Dave Campbell levels of sportswriting.
There are ZERO decent sportswriters today!
