I just find it laughable that these "dream coach" debates continue while we sit alone in second place in the SEC East on 11/1, fairly confident of finishing with a winning record in conference play for the first time in 39 freaking years, and possessed of the most productive freshman RB in the country. I don't care how we arrived at this place, some of you need to "check ya self". We are clearly going to be an even more threatening team in 2017. We don't need Art Briles and his baggage, so the point is moot.

I agree on no to Briles but this thread started after the 0-2 start to the season and someone bumped it after the new news on Briles this weekend.

So based on new info that has come to light about the Baylor situation, would you still "love to have him".??
What new info? The new report has the same vague info as before? What evidence is there that he covered up rape? What evidence is there that he knew about rapes and gang rapes and failed to report them to the police? Did the victims report to him and not the police, did he observe the rapes, did the players tell him, how did he find out?

I was the one to bump it. Those who were beating their breast for UK to hire Briles need to own it, and either explain why they still think it would be a good move, or man up and admit they were wrong.

Nothing will change your mind. Your agenda is crystal clear throughout this thread. How about former Baylor basketball coach Dave Bliss? You want him to get another college coaching job too?

Quote from the WSJ article.

"In at least one case, Baylor regents said, Mr. Briles knew about an alleged incident and didn’t alert police, the school’s judicial-affairs staff or the Title IX office in charge of coordinating the school’s response to sexual violence."

Actual evidence that Briles had some involvement will change my mind. What is my agenda? I have no connection to Briles or Baylor.

In which case did he know and how did he know? Again, did the victim call Art Briles instead of the police, did the perpetrator confess to Art Briles, did he walk in on the rape or was he there in some compacity? I feel like these are reasonable questions. I guess you can keep saying I have an agenda since you can't answer them.

So what will suffice as actual evidence for you?
Anything will help, not a vague excerpt from Baylors board of regents who is in CYA mode and has an actual agenda. How did he find out about these rapes first of all. Can you even answer that. If you say he didn't report them you should at least attempt to confirm that he actually knew.

I can thankfully say he ain't coming to UK. Hiring a coach who was the boss over a dumpster fire that allegedly included many women getting raped by the players under his watch is not a good idea.

Let's beat UGA! !

Anyone who ever considered art Briles coaching at UK should be ashamed of themselves....winning a GAME is never more important than RAPE and covering RAPE
