Not going to read the entire report, but if "covering up rapes" means trying to keep their players out of campus kangaroo courts where young men have had their lives ruined and their names drag through the mud I say kudos to Briles and the athletic director for having the guts to sidestep that crap.

It should be 100% illegal for universities to adjudicate sexual assault.

:ohno: :ohno: :ohno: :ohno: :ohno: :ohno:

Start with page 10.

And just so you know, at least one has already been convicted of rape that Briles and his staff tried to coverup.


Hope you don't have any women in your life.

I love this quote...
The football program also operates an internal system of discipline, separate from
University processes, which is fundamentally inconsistent with the mindset required for effective
Title IX implementation, and has resulted in a lack of parity vis-à-vis the broader student
population. This informal system of discipline involves multiple coaches and administrators,
relies heavily upon individual judgment in lieu of clear standards for discipline, and has resulted
in conduct being ignored or players being dismissed from the team based on an informal and
subjective process.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha :lol:

Yes, because the federal government's guidelines for dealing with sexual assaults are sooooo clear and straightforward and involves well-trained and always impartial individuals.

This is very sad.

Yes I know there was a conviction.

At the same time I do think there is a thing going on where the idea is to automatically believe any woman who claims she was sexually assaulted or raped. It's an unbalanced situation whereby, instead of being innocent until proven guilty, a guy accused of such things has to prove he's innocent and it's very tough to do. There's a definite "believe the woman" bias.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

And even the university's president was reassigned as a result...

But what makes this sadder is that... how corrupted our youth's moral foundations are. :ohno:
