Thankfully that's not the only reason mentioned.

I mentioned twenty million and one reasons why Briles was likely scapegoated and Baylor over reacted. It's not surprising this day in age, Yale just canceled their men's soccer season because the male soccer players were rating female soccer players on their attractiveness on a 10 scale. A Harvard head of college and another professor stepped down due to student pressure because of their stance on Halloween Costumes. Similar student pressure got the President of Missouri University to step down because of imaginary racism.

There's clearly a hypersensitive atmosphere on college campuses today. I'd be more willing to throw Briles under the bus had Baylor not settled out of court 20 million for a wrongful termination. Covering up rape and gang rape is grounds for firing. Why'd they cave and settle for 20 million?

Do you really think there is some sort of equivalence between this overly sensitive pampered university bullshite and the systematic cover up of domestic violence, sexual assault, and rape allegations by a university/athletic department?

Baylor didn't pay Briles off because they had no grounds to fire him. Baylor paid him off because they wanted to protect their brand and not open themselves up to discovery and other law suits.

If Baylor fights Brile's law suit then both parties spend the next year in court talking about every sexual assualt/rape/domestic violence allegation at Baylor over the past 10 years and who knew about it about it and what action was taken.
