OT - New Baylor Lawsuit.

[UConn66]

The Big 12 Conference Board of Directors voted unanimously to withhold one-quarter (25 percent) of future revenue distribution payments to Baylor University, pending the outcome of third-party verification review of required changes to Baylor's athletics procedures and to institutional governance of its intercollegiate athletics programs, among other matters.

Another way to read it is "The Big Twelve allows Baylor TO KEEP 75 percent of future distributions." I guess that's fair, they only raped 50 or so women! What creeps.

They'll probably do a Ford Pinto-like cost benefit analysis to determine if it costs more to fix their problems than the 25% of rev share they'd lose. "So it costs us $10 million per year in rev share losses, BUT we'll keep winning which brings in $12 million in marketing/alum/ticket/tv etc. revenues? Status quo wins!"

Baylor suspends another football player accused of violence toward a woman

It must be worse than I thought if the state of Texas is going to investigate a football team in the state of Texas.

Also what the hell is going on with the UNC investigation?

Not much, although there was this recently:

Dallas Morning News: New Baylor lawsuit alleges 52 rapes by football players in 4 years, 'show 'em a good time' culture

This hurts the entire Big 12 and Texas schools in general. Texans really love their football and their recruits too.

Please! UNC is now disputing the listing one (of God knows how many) courses in question. That should add another five years to the time a report, if any, is made public. Thou shalt not malign the pillar of academics in the ACC, North Carolina. The NCAA are Cowards of the first degree.

Read the December 21st Raleigh News and Observer article on the UNC scandal. It will make you ill.

It really got worse yesterday. How does the NCAA dance around this now?

Lawsuit alleges Baylor football players gang-raped another female student, called it 'bonding ritual'

NCAA only cares about UConn's APR...

I went to an Auburn game about 15 years ago and the program included a group photo and individual shots of each member of their recruiting escorts (word properly chosen) program. It didn't take much imagination to envision their role in the process. I'm surprised they didn't include a roster with height, weight, bra size and favorite position.

I wonder if these recruiting escorts were on "team" scholarships ?

1. This is all disgraceful and makes most other scandals pale by comparison. Sandusky was as bad but he was a lone actor, protected buy the school no doubt but not part of the culture.
2. The NCAA won't act unless absolutely forced to do so. They were criticized for there actions in Penn State and ultimately backed off many of them. They used the academic issue not athletics in UNC and will likely fall back on something like that here. Expect to read or hear "This is a criminal matter not an athletic one," from the likes of the NCAA president.
3. If Baylor had common decency it would shut the program down itself. Won't happen.

This is bad enough there is going to end up being a movie about it.

There is a tv series, "Blue Moumtin State" or just type in porno and college...and I'm sure you'll find plenty of movies, not that I recommend it (think viruses) ...but if you go ahead and proceed it is at your own risk but certainly don't watch it with family or at work!
