Here is a good summary of what all has happened and lead to this. Wow, we thought we had problems.

I don't know who is the constant over there, but this is systemic at its core. The entire group should be criminally charged.

Since 1995, they've had 5 presidents, with two of those being interim.

Bliss and the AD were fired in 2003, but the President stuck around for another 2 years.

But I'm with you. It looks like problems at Baylor have been endemic.

Asked to resign or fired?

And remember Dave Bliss? This ain't Baylor's first rodeo.

Asked him to resign before he was fired. But yes you are correct, the Baylor Regents were not going to let this go on much longer after what happened with Dave Bliss and the MBB program.

Baylor has fired football coach Art Briles, a person with direct knowledge of the matter told USA TODAY Sports.

"Ken Starr will no longer serve in the role of President of Baylor University effective May 31. David Garland, former dean and professor at Baylor's George W. Truett Theological Seminary, will serve as Interim President of Baylor University while the University initiates a search for its next President. Garland previously served as Baylor's interim President from August 2008 to May 2010. Starr remains the Louise L. Morrison Chair of Constitutional Law in Baylor's Law School and has agreed in principle to serve as Chancellor on terms that are still being discussed.

Effective immediately, Head Football Coach Art Briles has been suspended indefinitely with intent to terminate according to contractual procedures."

Based on this comment, I think more coaches will be gone. I would want no part of Briles or anyone who took part of this on our Cajun's staff. This is waaaay worst than what Saunders did. This is almost Penn State level bad.

Anyone who participated in thwarting any investigation into the females' claims should certainly be charged.

Where is the AD in all of this?

He should have been fired too. They should all be fired. He was "sanctioned and placed on probation"

Its amazing considering Baylor is a Baptist school..
