oh no i get that stench. in the current regulatory framework and with the current PR status of these issues, you have to fire Briles. but it seems like people are throwing out a lot of shite that isn't true in the objective. that's why i keep asking those questions

if a football coach pushed an alleged victim to making NO reports, then that's terrible and all the fury of hell should come down on them. but i don't know if there is any such information. i keep asking for it because i'm honestly curious

Specifically states that they pushed to not report and had improper contact and otherwise screwed with investigations.

start at page 10 for direct findings related to the football program

You really can't see why football staff meeting with potential victims and then not reporting it is devistating and fire-worthy

"Police should have investigated, Briles didn't know anything".

Poor guy, just caught in the wrong place at the wrong time with the University admin being incompetent in the way they handled claims against players within his program. He certainly didn't have any influence over the situation at all, they're just using him as a scapegoat.

They also took that Boise transfer who was essentially booted for Rape (it was a Jameis situation in Boise supposedly-- only the school and the LEOs didn't play ball and try to bury a credible but not provable allegation).


Then, tried to put the blame on Chris Pedersen by indicating that he failed to tell them why he was let go and that he was adamant about placing SU with Baylor.





Which, was laughable. I mean I'm not going to say Peterson is definitely a great guy-- after it turned out JoePa was basically doing the whole Cardinal covering for priests bit, who knows about anyone-- but his reputation is pretty sterling.

It's been awhile since I've discussed this but if I remember correctly..

Briles said he talk to Chris Petersen about Sam U before he transferred to Baylor. Briles claims Chris Peterson didn't mention anything about Sam U violence towards women. Briles produces this transfer request form in which the Boise athletic department stated that they had no knowledge of Sam U being in trouble with the law.

Media asked Chris Petersen if he disclosed it to Briles. Petersen says he disclosed everything he needed to disclosed (which didn't really answer the question).

Turns out Sam U had the police called on him for allegedly hitting his GF at the time. Police did not file a report as the GF did not cooperate. Since there was no legal implications it was never on file in the athletic department. Since it wasn't on file in the athletic department it was communicated to Baylor on the transfer request form Baylor sent to Boise asking them to disclose any legal issues the play may be involved in.

exactly why universities should not be involved. this is EXACTLY what i'm talking about

imagine a world where this wasn't considered to be under Title 9. these actors would look 100x worse

then it would be clear interference with a criminal investigation and a legit crime

And I'll quote for good measure:

quote:

Baylor failed to take appropriate action to respond to reports of sexual assault and
dating violence reportedly committed by football players. The choices made by football staff
and athletics leadership, in some instances, posed a risk to campus safety and the integrity of the
University. In certain instances, including reports of a sexual assault by multiple football
players, athletics and football personnel affirmatively chose not to report sexual violence and
dating violence to an appropriate administrator outside of athletics.


In those instances, football
coaches or staff
met directly with a complainant and/or a parent of a complainant and did not
report the misconduct.

shite. This is going to cost the school--rightly-- a lot more than Briles brought in-- that might be enough to trigger Federal Loan dollars being curtailed, at the very least the liability is insane.

were any players who were convicted of a crime (while a BU student) allowed to play for baylor?
Like you, i'm most ignorant on the Baylor situation.

But if the sticking point is a cover up of multiple assaults that Briles may have been aware of, isn't asking of any were convicted not really a fair rationale to go by? The whole point of a cover up is to avoid a charge/conviction.

I think the larger issue is did football staff take it upon themselves to not report, then how many victims rolled with the "well they're not going to do anything anyway" and walked away from it.

Part of it too though is stuff like this, where they gave the impression of a University investigation to victims but did not do so:

some cases, internal steps gave the illusion of responsiveness to complainants but failed to
provide a meaningful institutional response under Title IX.

i changed it to indicted a page or 2 later. a much lower standard

ah bu you see that seems to be the distinction

they "covered up" issues relating to university investigations for Title 9 purposes. that is pretty clear

but i don't know if they "covered up" the criminal investigations of any (i'm waiting for that info)

again, when you leave it up to universities to do this, then you should expect either end of the spectrum. this is a private body not even subject to FOIA requests. another reason why this should be handled by public policing agencies.
