Under allegations of rape cover up? Who was that?


Of course not. But they have been PR nightmares in their own right. Bama has hired guys that are broken toys and little is said.

Auburn isn't a afraid of hiring a Briles. Good for them. LSU will end up with Ensminger and will be forever mediocre 8 win team. I'm not complacent with that myself, but the Miles pumpers and O pumpers are, along with the LSU admin.

I was at the 2007 national championship against Ohio state. And by God when you taste victory, and you are the best team in the country if bodes well for the state of Louisiana - sure hope we can get there again

Not a good analogy for Briles. That would make him Paterno.


No, I agree. Not a good look but, not exactly parallel. The public perception is that Briles is guilt because he didn't do enough just as was Paterno. But did Briles try and cover these incidents up or did he not get out in front of this in the media to cover his own arse?

He has publicly said that he should have done more. It's not like ran in the complete opposite direction of what was happening and looked the other way. He is guilty of recruiting and allowing poor character kids onto the Waco campus with the purpose of playing college football.

I don't disagree with you, but don't you think it would be smart for LSU to steer clear of that name until all these investigations have ceased?

Again, i dont believe either Briles will be at LSU next year, but if you were running a football team/university/athletic program you would pull the trigger? If we were in 2017, going in to '18, and having this convo it would be completely different. More facts/revelations coming, but at this point i think there are just too many question marks surrounding briles for it to happen.

I asked this in a previous response, but never got an answer:

I am still not sure, but do you know if the NCAA could still investigate him personally? I know they said they won't sanction Baylor like they did penn state, but i dont think their investigation is actually closed. I could be wrong about that, though.


Do you know if new info came to light how it could/would effect his employment at any school he was with. Not to mention that school would be tarnished by association. Again, i don't want to debate guilt or innocence. Just thinking about this from a liability stand point. At this point, is he completely safe from further investigation/lawsuits/charges?

Just reporting what I overheard. Ok, perhaps not a 'selling point' -- wrong wording -- but he heard it mentioned. I also have the convo regarding Stidham on FB. Ill screen shot it and post it later



Kendall maybe, but even then I highly doubt it. It'd be a really weird situation if the Briles'-tied Stidham is being sold on Lashlee while another QB without Briles ties is being sold on Briles.
