“According to a report from PR Week, Baylor officials placed a mole within several support groups for sexual assault survivors as a way to control their messaging and keep the university from looking bad.

Baylor currently faces a Title IX lawsuit from 10 anonymous former students for their alleged serial mishandling of sexual assault cases over the past decade, and Baylor football players have been accused of committing 52 rapes over four years. Per PR Week, the school attempted to curtail the voices of sexual assault survivors by embedding an insider (identified as Matt Burchett, director of student activities at Baylor) into survivor groups and getting them to soften their stances.”

Baylor should disband scholarship athletics.

Baylor should get the Death Penalty in all their athletic programs

Have FUN Jalen Hurd!

 

[Roustabout]

Baylor must be aspiring to be a Catholic university.

That is beyond disgusting!

holy crap if this can be proved.

That’s going to end up being a really big ping pong stadium.

....But was it Illegal to do so?

....But was it Illegal to do so?

My first question also. It’s disgusting and despicable behavior. But I’m not sure if it legally actionable.

 

[crazyguy]

I don’t believe it matters if it’s technically illegal, it adds to the title IX implication of institutional bias.

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

If found true Baylor should be expelled from the Big 12 and NCAA D1

this. Baylor was already under a microscope, and now it comes out that they may have been shading some of the comments coming out against them? They just continuously destroy any image they may have had. they haven't put the shovel down and continue to go deeper and deeper.

They need to reach out to whoever was representing Meyer

you mean the OSU heavy investigating group?

Truth and well said. Legality is waaayyy beside the point here. This speaks directly to an institutionally organized bias. The leadership at Baylor during this has been utterly despicable.

....But was it Illegal to do so?

Probably not, but I doubt it will help them in that title 9 lawsuit.

I don't think the death penalty is fair to the millions of fans that had nothing to do with this. Fire all the guilty parties. In the end hitting Baylor where it hurts is the main thing to do. Make them donate all athletic profits (with a set minimum amount) to a rape related charity for 3 years with a fourth year of probation where any slip ups lead to another year of lost profits and another year on probation.

This is the kindof thing that makes me strongly consider stopping watching CFB. Between this and all the OSU nonsense. These programs are mostly run by total scumbags it seems like. They will do what ever and recruit whomever they have to in order to win I stopped caring about the NFL years ago, so it wouldnt be a stretch for me.

The Love of Money. Basically just corporations run off the backs of apprentices, some who get pittance on the impact they make. So much tradition involved that it's tough but I, too, quit NFL due $$$ overruling everything else.
I understand how the world works and this isn't going to change sans something huge so I just choose to not partake.

Still love watching the VOLS play, though. GBO!!!
