AN EXCERPT:

Briles and his administrative enablers were willing to ignore that risk because Ukwuachu was good at football, just like Alabama's Nick Saban rationalized Jonathan Taylor's domestic violence issues at Georgia (he's since been dismissed).

They aren't the first and they won't be the last, but it's time for people who care about college football to stop absolving the Coach Almighty from their responsibility in making campuses safe for women.

Baylor doesn't have weight of an Alabama or FSU to shield their programs from too heavy an NCAA hand in these matters. To steal a line from Goldilocks, Baylor "is just right" for the NCAA to make an example of.
