With all of the evidence now available, to say that Briles brought this down on our head is just stupid stubborn.
No only stupid, no one associated with Baylor of PH ever said that. This is some of the most ridiculous crap that gets repeated over and over by the Briles apologist.
You are right again. But just look at some of our very own posters most who support your arguments who think that to this day. I wonder how many people ever really took the time to read the documents as opposed to just believing the media's interpretations or worse yet internet poster's opinions !
Which is my concern Baylor, the BOR,has allowed the its all CAB and footballs fault narrative to run unabated.
I agree with that E. Briles was paid handsomely to away without making waves - he didn't live up to his end of that bargain. It is just foolish to think giving the middle finger to someone is a good way to get them to rescue you from the press.
ok...clearly you and I disagree over most of the issues...for better or worse you are identified as a BOR troll and me as a CAB lover...
I think we both come to a lot of agreement over the facts themselves and even some (few) conclusions on underlying issues.
But we still are miles apart on the big ones...
How can you possibly believe that the money paid to CAB was nothing more than his prearranged and negotiated buy out? The BOR chose to exercise it and he had not choice whether to accept it or not it was in his contract? There were also I am sure NDA's that limited what both parties could say about each other.
CAB may be a lot of things but stupid and lacking for good lawyers to advise him he is and was not. If he attacked the BOR or BU he would risk losing the $15,000,000.00. No one does that no matter how mad or principled they are because the contract would have been breached. He had no recourse. Certainly if the BOR had started down the road of termination with cause there could have been an out of CRT settlement but that never happened.
I know we could go round and round on the exoneration letter BU later sent...why was that sent but for someone finally trying to assist CAB...if he had given them the middle finger why would they have given him the letter? Of course interestingly it was not to be made public. I don't see how you say CAB did anything to cause the media firestorm to continue?
