Baylor hired some Temple scrub. Big victory for the cats.

Are you a bot designed to say nothing but stupid crap?

You would be amazed at the amount of crap I don't say.

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

Better than I expected, only because I didn't think any respectable coach would entertain the idea. Obviously this guy was way down their list and is a pretty mediocre hire under any other circumstance. This guy has zero Texas connections so he's going to need a couple recruiters with an eye for rapists to get Baylor headed back in the right direction

Lol this is a better hire than we will make when Bill eventually retires.

Jason King is not a fan of the hire...

very nice hire by Baylor. 

[Skipper44]

I think going with a guy whose DC and position coach was Jerry Sandusky was a great move for Baylor in their current situation.

match made in hell - the don't ask/don't tell press conferences in Waco will continue

[star seed 7]

Never heard of him

[DOD Take 2]

I can't believe but I agree with Jason King on something. This is a really strange hire and I think a bad fit. I'm expecting a Charlie Strong-esque tenure. He'll win a few games he shouldn't, lose some he seemingly shouldn't, miss a couple bowls and move on.

No it isn't, and I'm not underwhelmed by Rhule. That type of candidate is exactly what we will hire.

Who constitutes a good fit?

[Mixed-Nutz]

I think it is a massive scheme shift. Not really sure. But would require more rebuilding that is probably not really needed with that roster.

It's that but they fanned with the biggest names they tried for that run a similar scheme. I suppose they could have hired Helfrich but Rhule probably has a higher ceiling.

Is Baylor gonna get slapped with any  NCAA sanctions? Does the temple guy have any Texas connections?

That's the biggest key. 

Really solid hire as far as coaches go, but he may be a little challenged, regionally.

Texas HS coaches loved Briles, and they funneled good kids to him for that reason.  I wonder if they'll push back against Ruhle because he's not "one of them" like Art was.

yeah, ignoring Briles, uh, unwavering dedication to winning, the it seemed important that he was the first coach at Baylor since Teaff that is a Texan or as Art so folksy put it during the 2014 CFP debate "When I die, they're not going to bury me in Maryland," he said. "They're going to bury me in Texas."

Maybe they looked at Drew's success as a total outsider to the the state but finding 3 or 4 kids a year in basketball is a lot easier than the 30ish he needs the next few years and Drew also didn't follow the most successful coach in program history.

He'll be fine. Mack was fine, sweaty Gary is fine, Sumlin with his swag copter is fine.

NCAA sanctions for what?

Title 9 violations?

That's not a NCAA issue, it's a university issue. If the NCAA is going to start enforcing title IX issues that's going to be a lot of issues for a lot of program and the NCAA would need to expand their enforcement staff about tenfold.
