You do know that Baylor fired him without cause? If he would have really fricked up do you not think that they would have fired him with cause. If that would have happened, I could see no one giving him a chance.

What part of it is it you don't understand that there are court documents linking Briles to cover up of rapes by Baylor players?

He took guys with violent criminal behavior onto his team after being warned by other Coaches.

There will be no "clearing" Briles.

Maybe Baylor didn't want to dig into it. One thing for sure. Art Briles is dirtier than a baboon shart

The only reason they fired him the way they did was to try to limit any liability that they themselves would then be subjected to. And it's still going to blow up in their face.

You'd have to be some kind of dumbass to think it was because Briles himself was clean in all of this. His fingerprints are all over all of it. Any school trashy enough to hire him will deal with these revelations for years as these (multiple) cases play out. He's an absolute piece of shite who did everything they say he did.

Don't disagree with you there, but we have a fricked up legal system here in the good ole USA. Sankey nor anyone else could keep LSU or Auburn or anyone else from hiring Briles without culpability on his part being proven and that would have happened if Baylor would have fired him with cause. They probably didn't handle it that way so if it does come out he wasn't involved (I believe he was) they would be looking at getting sued by all the victims and Briles.

There are rumors floating around AU that there is pressure on Malzahn to fire Lashlee (he does need to go) after this season and bring in either Art Briles as OC or his son as OC and hire him as an offensive consultant.

If this happens I will be pissed!!!!

FWIW I'm way more willing to over look Petrinos side fricking than a coach like Art if he wasn't witch hunt by the media.


Do you even legal liability bro?

Petrinu having his side piece elevated above more qualified folks for a state job is a major legal no no. Not only could Jessica sue, but so could anybody who did not get the job she had if they were in the applicant pool.

As for Briles it is way more than a media witch hunt. Have you even read some of the reports by the survivors? Coverups by college presidents and local police at such an extreme level under the banner of christian ideology. If it was my daughter, that place would have been burned to the ground and the earth salted afterwards.

Briles is a POS. Yes, he's a good coach but LSU can do better.

Many of you guys aren't paying attention. This whole Briiles thing has been mishandled by Baylor from the start, Even Judge Starr is out giving interviews these days speaking in behalf of Briles.

Don't be surprised if more comes out of here in Waco and if Briles is shown to be a scapegoat.

Deep down, no one wants Briles to the SEC because they know he'll have LSU lighting up defensive secondary's in 1-2 years and he'll immediately change the status quo of the SEC.

Well, PSU just honored Paterno, so I think schools have short memories of really bad things happening under their coaches watchful eye.

Winner or loser - that is just a huge liability and would be a legal albatross around the whole league. Which is why Sankey might step in. Pretty sure somewhere in the conference rules they have an "out" via a morals clause or some behavior detrimental to the league.

Baylor settled with him for $20-30mil rather than say his firing was "for cause"

There is no doubt Briles was a scapegoat. He'd still be a PR nightmare and we'll never know how involved in any of it he was. I can't see LSU taking a flyer on him.

Once the lawsuits really get going it will snowball and you really need to read some of the past history, suggest you start here I was raped at Baylor and look at the Title IX report from the Feds where the person in charges said Baylor was reporting ZERO rapes which was an automatic red flag as no school had such a spotless claim.

Which is of course on the head football coach.



Clearly Briles fricked up bad but Baylor used him as the scapegoat for something wrong with their entire institution because a football player was involved.

I do think many people wouldn't look past Arts sins.


Hiring Art Briles in any capacity would end me following LSU. He is that disgusting of a human being. I would rather they hire Joey Freshwater, and by that I don't mean LK, but his actual bar/tinder alias than Art Briles.
