Oh look more terrible Baylor news

http://espn.go.com/espn/otl/story/_/...otball-players

Briles should be **** canned for all this but probably won't be. Seems like he always points his finger to someone else. When is he going to be held accountable for this mess?

when they start losing games

So as I understand it, Baylor administration managed to make Florida State look proactive in terms of standing up for sexual assault victims of the football team (telling one victim they couldn't investigate and "There's really nothing we can do without a court conviction. He said she said, you know?") while still being slightly better than BYU's official approach for all women (being raped is a violation of the honor code!).

$300 milly on a stadium for Baylor seems a touch high...

Baylor had their two years of relevance; time to go back into the shadows again

LOL Mi$$ just self-imposed a double digit scholarship reduction penalty for their recent host of NCAA violations. Will see if the NCAA wants to take it a step further:

Would say it was more like 5. Time kinda flies. Hard to believe how long Baylor and Stanford have been good.

One would think

In the last 15 years, UGA has finished the season ranked higher than it started 7 times and lower 8. But yeah, 6 of the last 8 have finished lower.

Verne out, Nessler in.

Could not be more ecstatic. Was sure they'd **** it up and turn Verne's departure into a "careful what you wish for" thing. Instead they snag the one true GOAT.

Verne will take a year long victory lap, then step down from cfb while remaining on golf and college squeaky shoes.

I do have affection for Verne, but this is great.

Only recently has that been the case and since Georgia has beaten Auburn 8/10 years Im not sure we are helping them as much as you think.

love me some harbaugh

Coach Harbaugh ‏@CoachJim4UM 55m55 minutes ago
"Amazing" to me- Alabama broke NCAA rules & now their HC is lecturing us on the possibility of rules being broken at camps. Truly "amazing."

Saban brings up a valid point about compliance with these new camps and just wants a commissioner to oversee college football instead of the p5 running things, each with their own interests...he doesn't want us to turn into AAU basketball

Harbaugh responds with ad hominem (really at the school, not person) and UM fans eat it up
