Baylor situation gets worse

Quote
Attorneys in a sexual assault lawsuit against Baylor University say they’ve obtained records that suggest a former Baylor interim president told an administrator to delete emails related to the suit.
The allegation was in a motion, filed Wednesday, and is the latest development in a federal civil rights lawsuit in which several women have accused the Waco-based university of repeatedly mishandling, ignoring or stifling claims of sexual and physical abuse of students.

The attorneys for the 10 women claim in the motion that they’ve obtained an email that shows that then-interim President David Garland wrote to a “high-level Baylor athletics official” and told him, “I would erase the emails.”

Emailing someone to tell them they should delete emails for shady legal reasons is amazing.

"These are the issues everywhere. This isn't a Baylor thing. This is an 'our world' thing.

Quote
A reporter referenced two of Rhule's staff who were fired near the start of his tenure, one was a coach arrested in connection with a prostitution sting and another was a staff member who reportedly sent inappropriate text messages to a teenager, and asked, "Are you worried at all about the culture of the program?"

"No, not at all," Rhule said without hesitation.

Compared to this:

Quote
Philadelphia law firm Pepper Hamilton -- which was hired by the school's board of regents to investigate whether the school properly handled allegations of sexual assault by students, including football players -- was critical of the culture within the football program and Briles' discipline of players. Pepper Hamilton's findings described Baylor's football players as being "above the rules" with "no culture of accountability for misconduct."

And to think there are people here who say the Big 12 and the NCAA shouldn't find any obscure, vague, unintentional rule to kill the entire Baylor athletic department.

Burn. It. Down.

Cesspool of a bunch of religious crazies that have no business being in the BigXII.

Exactly. This department has allowed the raping and murder (literally) of its student athletes and has continued receive no real punishment for any of it. All they do is deny deny, try to cover their tracks, and move on.

A Baylor staffer asked me, “I don’t know why we’re still (talking about) this; it was two years ago.”

Nothing to see here, move along, move along. Just typical Baylor stuff going on.

Are there any grumblings, legitimate ones, that the conference might actually seek to excommunicate these zealots? Hell, even Colorado State looks better than these guys at the moment. Although, I'd probably just add Cincinnati to give WVU a play pal.

Just read deadspin's coverage of this.  Why the Big 12 allows this university to coexist in the fraternity is beyond me.  The entire institution is beyond redemption.  I know some were worried about the effects of punishing the entire institution would have on non-involved student athletes, but that can easily be remedied by making Baylor pay for their education elsewhere and allowing immediate transfers when their athletic department is banned from all competition.

Yea, I think it's well due time to kick them out. Just find the best available to replace them and do it.

Absolutely just as much (IMO much more) upside than Baylor ever had.

Just read that prweek link...geesh. Student activities employee/lackey on campus provided intel on rape survivors' political actions to BU administrators. Administrators call their multi-million dollar for hire communication consulting firm to see what the next step in damage control will be.  :facepalm:

There has to at least be a conversation at the conference level on other options, right?

I still need someone to explain to me how Baylor weaseled their way into this conference.

I also need an explanation for why they should be allowed to stay, because I agree that Houston would be a much better school to be associated with than Baylor.

These are easy

1. The Governor of Texas at the time of the conference negotiating/forming, Ann Richards, was a Baylor grad and used her clout for leverage. At the time you could kind of see Baylor. SMU, TCU, and Houston had issues with probation and those schools repeatedly cheating killed the SWC. Rice, although in Houston, was already too far gone to be in a major conference, and likewise UTEP was simply not an option. Baylor, ironically enough, was relatively clean and they weren't yet the horrific sad sack program that they were the first 15 years they were in the conference. The Big 8 really didn't have a choice, and like I said, at the time they were the best option out of only poor choices.

Good grief Baylor has been awful for over a century.

Quote
n the 1890s, William Cowper Brann published the highly successful Iconoclast newspaper in Waco. One of his targets was Baylor University. Brann revealed that Baylor officials had been importing South American children recruited by missionaries and making house-servants out of them. Brann was shot in the back by Tom Davis, a Baylor supporter. Brann then wheeled, drew his pistol, and killed Davis. Brann was helped home by his friends, and died there of his wounds.
