Also I'd bet a pretty large sum that Baylor was paying the eff out of their cruits/players

Thing is he's been doing all of this winning with average at best classes, not the Ol' Miss route.

No 5 stars few 4 stars. He's an excellent "coach em' upper" just morally bankrupt.

Despite these underwhelming rankings we've only ranked ahead of Baylor twice in this time frame, 2008 and 2015. Of course at least two of our top 5 recruits from that class are already gone; Banks and English, and their best player in that class will be their starting quarterback for the next three years.

I think the list of toleratable crimes are those your wild and adventurous college and high school gets into. Basically alcohol and practical joke related, and fair-ish fights.  Anything else is probably not okay absent extenuating circumstances.

He had some super rapey transfers

[KCFDcat]

Jim Grobe?

[Big Sam]

He had some super rapey transfers

You are correct, sir!

Those super rapey transfers don't count in the recruiting class rankings, but can make a huge impact (in more ways than one).

[GregKSU1027]

Jim Grobe?

Don'tcha mean Jim Grope? 

[TownieCat]

This will not end well for Bennett and the rest of the staff if they're bringing in a guy like Grobe.

I think that may be the point

[MakeItRain]

They've announced that the staff, including Phil and Kendall, are staying. Is Grobe going to let Kendall keep their offense?

That would be pretty shitty

[ednksu]

peace will reign in the land of bible aggie as their tuck circle is complete

"I've heard him say this 1,000 times in recruiting: 'Bring me an average player who's a great kid over a great player who's a bad kid,'" said Elrod. "That was huge to him."

Millions of shirt stays are assuredly headed to Baylor as nothing will get the same tight tuck as linking your socks and polo.

Briles time as a high school coach in Stephenville is dogged by rumors of a steroid program (which is ridiculous for HS kids, they don't need exogenous test).

Also, the Tech guys have been claiming that Stidham showed up in a brand new truck when he enrolled at Baylor.

Had a roommate who stuck roids in one of our long snappers asses all the time. Also, a LB he knew too.

Also, Beasley with the hummer and momma not working with a house. 

[SkinnyBenny]

yeah. dngaf about baylor players showing up in new trucks.

Beasley's mom was absolutely working

[TCUHornedFrog]

I don't either.

I was friends with several football players at TCU during my time there.  You can't stop players from getting paid.  You can take steps that make it difficult, but it is impossible to shut down.  Boosters show up to events with envelopes with cash and are very good at sliding them into pockets discreetly (one of my best friends was a starting LB, he received more than a couple).  The veteran boosters know how to get the envelope to a player and make it to where the player would have to cause a scene to refuse it.

Steroids if taken under a proper program aren't nearly as bad for you as they are made out to be. 

The steroid testing program for the NCAA is pretty laughable as well.  It's very easy for players to avoid detection.

A steroid program for high schoolers is rough ridin' detestable though.  Those kids are test factories.  They don't need steroids.

Hey, I heard some insidery rumored tidbits about Phil's time as a head coach at SMU.

During a coaching staff meeting, things became heated and one assistant coach pulled a gun on another staff member. He soon left the staff "to pursue other opportunities."

Phil's coaching staff screamed so many profanities during practice that it became an issue and was in violation of some obscenity clause or something. The outdoor practice field was near an elementary school. The school district staff asked multiple times for them to stop, but they didn't. So finally the SMU legal team worked out a deal with the school district that all practices during elementary school time would take place in the indoor practice facility, otherwise the school district was going to take it to court with video and sound recordings.

Phil landed a qb recruit the old-fashioned way. He hired the recruit's mom to "clean his house." This meant that once a week she showed up and took an envelope of cash from his home.

Don't know if these are true, but there ya go.

[KITNfury]

Phil would have to be a complete dumbass (maybe he is?) to be directly involved w/ paying a player or his family. You have to insulate yourself from that stuff.

It would be like Tony Montana selling coke on a corner.
