It is just sad to see the complete misrepresentation and misunderstanding of what happened at BU and how if any CAB was involved be repeated in the media...it is a complicated issue most of us no matter which side you are on realize that.
As far as college football media goes he is the face of the BU scandal...it is all about him recruiting rapist, protecting rapist and allowing them to prey on the women of BU...
This is why I am so disappointed with BU administration and the BOR and some of our fans we all know he was not what he is being portrayed as, yet we just are to scared to come to his defense for fear of being branded by social media as a rape enabler just like CAB.
Think about this...not fired for cause and paid over 15 million as a buy out, not charged with any crime, not specifically named in the FOF, no other sanctions adjudged against him to date and yet made an absolute pariah by social media...
If you really think about it is scary.
He had two players convicted of sexual assault. You can blame who you want for that. It is a reality. It is serious.
If you take the money and sign the NDA, then you set your path. That is not a path of Tshirt sales and watching games in person. Run silent, run deep (that is a submarine reference in case you were wondering). Briles should fire and never speak to again whoever put him on ESPN so soon and with that message, that prep. Play golf. Fish every day. Travel. Three things that would of had him coaching at an American university today.
Two convictions. That is reality. We knew that two years ago. We know that today.
That is the Hypocrisy we knew about both convictions as did the world it was public record and we did nothing about it then it was only after an investigation into how BU deals with the victims that suddenly we look back and say well even if he not responsible for title IX and did not specifically cover up SA's then he still should have been fired for the two convictions...well if true why did we wait?
The first valid question that I have read in your posts. Why did we wait?
So what is your answer? Is it fair after the fact to come back and offer up the actual convictions of Tevin and Sam themselves and say this is why he had to be let you go? Why did they wait? Clearly. no matter how bad you may think it is these incidents did not move the powers that be to make a change at the time they occurred. So why would you use them now to say the actions to terminate CAB were based on those convictions?
As bad as I hate to even acknowledge X or that he even posts on this forum he gets it...all about the social media storm...Twitter blows up with folks talking about a bad look hacks from different media outlets start running with opinions instead of facts and then some body worries that their reputation is getting hurt so they cave...which just creates more fodder for later...CAB can't work in Cleveland...CAB cant work in Canada Cab can't work anywhere despite no real info concerning his specific wrong doing just rank speculation. I mean this should be chilling to all...
Except you know what other than the shills and shrill voices screaming on twitter most people could care less and if someone would just say we have done our vetting and we are ok moving forward it dies down...you win games attendance and donations stay up and everybody is happy. Every coach on his staff has gotten other opportunities to coach in college ball...but not CAB. Heck every coach coached at BU after the fact...
The inconsistency in treatment and extreme hate for CAB is just disgusting especially from a lot of folks who cheered him wildly and enjoyed all the success right through it all.
I just think it is gutless for someone at BU to stand up and say we had to make a change for optics but their was showing that CAB did anything wrong in regard to the victims of the SA's. ( oh wait they did that in a letter) but when the letter was attacked and blown off as legal ease they did nothing to say look we paid the guy his buy out if he had done anything so wrong as to justify termination with cause we would have done so.
It would have saved us a ton of money and it would have not insulted the victims to pay the guy most responsible for their pain!
It stinks and is unfair...
