Like I said, it's a part of the culture there. Hard to reconcile that culture with this:This is a school that had a basketball player kill another basketball player. And then it came out that the dead player was paid by the head coach, Dave Bliss, to go there. And Bliss was caught on tape coming up with a plan to cover up the payments by starting a rumor that the dead player was a drug dealer. Major sanctions, half season death penalty for the program, bunch of scholarships, etc.
They took that so seriously that they hired Scott Drew as his replacement.
Imagine if this were Arkansas? It's hard to put myself in that spot.Sucks for Baylor fans too. I don't think I could root for a program that had done all that unless they just cleaned house.
I hear you. My post was dripping in sarcasm, stemming from this thread:I will disagree with a very level headed, very respected poster in my view in @mikedamone. Just because we have had some big issues in the past doesn't make covering it up okay. The cover up is always worse than what was covered up.
Why cover this up? Why was it allowed? Who asked, who agreed, and why?
This just isn't acceptable and its not acceptable any where by any one. Baylor should take the step and make an issue of finding out who did this and why and get rid of them. Ive said it before but they need a Jeff Long moment to clean out the trash can.
Hey folks, I get that its a school aligned with religious ideals but that portion is not a topic for this board (discuss freely on the Grim Bottom).
When religion is discussed here, people go potato and the thread turns into garbage.
Don't make me the "lame mod".
You know I was just being a sarcastic smartass, right? It just comes naturally.

Right. I don't blame the Baylor fans for not bailing, but the "nothing to see here" attitude is pretty mind-blowing.At the very least I'd be actively demanding some transparency. Beyond that I'd hope a large number of Arkansas fans would make enough of a stink that there would be a lot of people losing jobs.
I'd be hesitant to throw stones. This happens everywhere. We've had DWI's, counterfeiting, and failed drug tests here, you know.
I believe that Ken Starr the former special prosecutor of Bill Clinton is the President of Baylor. He looks pretty hypocritical now. Now about the police in Waco. They cover up these incidents but last May arrested what 170 people at Twin Peaks, many of whom did nothing, whose crime was being there. Many were in jail for an extended time as the bail was a million dollars.
You have already done that for yourself, imo of course.

Sarcasm? Cause I don't remember any of this being swept under the rug, or flat ass covered up by the athletic department.I'd be hesitant to throw stones. This happens everywhere. We've had DWI's, counterfeiting, and failed drug tests here, you know.
Wow. Yes, hard to read.
I've not heard anyone suggest winning at "all costs".Wow. Yes, hard to read.
I know there are some who want us to win at all cost, but this?
Not really that hard, we would rally the fans and donors to push cleaning house from the top down. Once done the fan support would be tremendous. A few years later the programs would be strong again while having a much improved image of not only our university programs but the overall quality of moral standing within our state.Imagine if this were Arkansas? It's hard to put myself in that spot.
