Didn't take long. Bleacher Report is reporting Baylor has reached a settlement agreement with Briles but conditions are unknown at the moment.
I would guess zero. I don't think the NCAA is going to touch this at all because of the backlash over Penn State, both when the punishments were announced and again when they were reversed. The will continue to say that this is a "criminal matter and should be handled by law enforcement."I wonder how many wins will be vacated by the NCAA. I would imagine several.
Unless the NCAA decides the players received a benefit by the coaches interfering with the criminal cases, the NCAA isn't touching this. There weren't any bylaws broken.Horrible situation which will be forever associated with BU.
In hind site I guess the Baptist were correct in not allowing dancing all those years if this is indeed what it leads to. (sorry..)

I think that we will learn Ken Starr played a bigger role in minimizing the victim's complaints. After all, he bamboozled some of the Dem's best attack dogs in the 1990s. Ken Starr would almost instinctively know what to do to protect himself in this situation, and losing his job is almost a "so what" to Starr at this stage of his life.Art doesn't seem happy. Link
If the NCAA finds out that some of the Baylor players received extra textbooks then lookout.........I would guess zero.

Actually, I think both Ken Starr and James Carville are NUTS!I think that we will learn Ken Starr played a bigger role in minimizing the victim's complaints.

As James Carville colorfully told us back then: "Ken Stah is crazy!!"
THEN the investigation will get serious.If the NCAA finds out that some of the Baylor players received extra textbooks then lookout.........
I would agree. But, at least Carville is funny. :wink:Actually, I think both Ken Starr and James Carville are NUTS!

What a brave lady. I am glad she has found a way to channel her pain into something that may help to prevent the same kind of heartache for others. Good for Mike Riley for inviting her to meet with and talk to his team.
I watched a TV show yesterday which was kind of hard to stomach. It centered around a gay man almost beaten to death, and a former skinhead both of which worked in outreach. The messed up thing was the as they later found out, the skinhead was the one that almost beat the gay man to death. That's a hard thing to reconcile, how one man could literally scar someone else for life, and yet face no actual punishment. This is what the Riley situation reminds me of. Is it brave and noble to stand up and take accountability for your horrible actions? I suppose it is, but in these cases there also was no true accountability for them either. The victims are the ones that have to be bigger than they were, to rise above, they're the ones who have to bear the burden.What a brave lady.

I agree. It's commendable for Riley to attempt atonement but it's even more commendable that, in the absence of any prosecutable form of justice, the victim was willing to make peace face to face with someone she used to find revolting and despicable.Is it brave and noble to stand up and take accountability for your horrible actions?
