[CajunJack55]

Football is more important than religion

Asked to resign or fired?

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

Hope nobody died this time...

The president was asked to resign and did so, you didn't think Briles wouldn't go next?

Louisville? I want to say they have employed or employ coaches that are no stranger to scandal. Maybe Briles can be Bobby Petrino's OC.

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

Baptist are the best at hiding things.

So, how many here would take Art Briles as head coach of the Ragin' Cajun football team? (And give your reasons)

I would like to hear or read what Briles has to say, because I haven't yet. However, after listening to Lotief and Robe over the years and maturing a bit myself, I think it is imperative that we hire coaches that understand and apply mentorship in the way that Tony and Mike do.

It is equally imperative that we not fire coaches solely based on wins and losses.

Couldn't have said it any better myself. When you see things like this, and of this magnitude, it makes you go back to basics and realize athletics isn't that important. I just can't imagine that a group of school officials are making decisions that are saying women getting raped is less important than allowing a football player to stay on the team? What has our society become where someone is physically forced to do something against their will and it's ok.

These institutions have sold their soul to the devil, they're proving that money is more important than educating and changing peoples lives for the better. That's what they're supposed to be doing....not worshipping some kid who is good at running thru grass and crossing a spray painted line that a groundskeeper put down.

After watching the video of Tony Robichaux that was posted a few days ago speaking to other coaches it has really changed my view of athletics. It's like a light bulb really went off and the truth, that I always knew was there, suddenly came to the forefront at lightning speed and shined extremely bright. These coaches are really in a position to teach boys how to become men and it is evident that most are not doing that. I really hope our administration see's these problems elsewhere and evaluates our entire staff to make sure we are not allowing any of this crap to happen on our campus. I'll take a .500 season every year instead of big time winning success with a team strife with criminals.
