No one will ever get the death penalty again...PSU came close...Baylor may be close... But will never happen again...

probably because the ncaa is run by a bunch of pussies who just can't seem to give any harsh judgments out these days...even when it's most deserving. which makes them look like a complete joke with no real power.

which makes me ask; what real power do they have, anyway? what if they handed punishment to an institution or program and the offender just said, "no thanks. we'll keep doing what we're doing." what real power do they have? they're not a military or police unit. they can't arrest anyone or bring charges against anyone.

i know there was talk not too long ago about the top schools leaving the ncaa behind and making their own rules committee to oversee their programs/institutions. i also read where someone said, "that will never happen. the ncaa wouldn't allow it." how could they "not" allow it? they hold no real power over the institutions themselves and can't force them to stay even if they wanted to.

Now one of their strength coaches got arrested for soliciting a prostitute. They learned their lesson, somewhat, he actually was arrested and fired.

Now one of their strength coaches got arrested for soliciting a prostitute. They learned their lesson, somewhat, he actually was arrested and fired.

A member of Baylor’s new coaching staff ran into some trouble over the weekend.

According to the Waco Tribune, Brandon Washington, a member of the Bears’ strength staff, was arrested early Saturday morning for attempting to solicit a prostitute. Police said Washington was arrested just after midnight in a sting operation at a local hotel. Washington, who followed new Baylor head coach to BU from Temple, faces a class B misdemeanor charge.

A bit ironic that you can get arrested for solicitation in Waco, but some will look the other way with regards to rape. Damn, dude got fired immediately.

Brandon Washington played at Central, recruited by Saban outta Tuscaloosa to play for LSU.

OTL: NCAA inquiry into Baylor scandal ongoing

NCAA enforcement staff has interviewed former Baylor administrators, Title IX investigators and some of the women who alleged football players sexually assaulted them, as it continues to investigate whether its rules were violated during the school's sexual assault scandal, sources familiar with the investigation told Outside the Lines on Friday.

Sources said NCAA investigators haven't yet focused on specific allegations of wrongdoing, instead casting a wide net to determine if any NCAA rules might have been violated. The NCAA is also asking whether Baylor players might have been provided improper recruiting inducements and other illegal benefits while playing for the Bears.

An NCAA spokesman declined to comment when reached by ESPN on Friday. A Baylor spokesman also declined comment; the NCAA discourages its member schools from commenting on ongoing investigations.

On the Shag, they have a thread for all the arrest mugshots for Austin, Dallas, SA and Houston. Someone on there parsed for the Waco prostitutes mugshots(last night after the news broke), it was not pretty, hell not even plain ol' ugly, full bore fugly.

Report: NCAA interviewed two former Baylor athletic staffers about school's Title IX violations

Recently, it was the Big 12 telling Baylor shape up or risk the consequences. The conference threatened to withhold revenue from the university until "the changes that were promised are actually made and that systems are in place to avoid future problems," Big 12 board chairman David Boren said.

Then, reports surfaced that NCAA enforcement staff would look into aspects of Baylor's Title IX compliance. Monday, Waco's Channel 10 KWTX station reported that the NCAA has interviewed two former Baylor staffers about the sexual assault allegations.

The KWTX report says the league interviewed former volleyball coach Jim Barnes and former assistant athletic director Tom Hill, whom Barnes reported to.


A volleyball player Barnes coached claimed she was "gang-raped by multiple football players" in 2013, KWTX reported. The coach left Waco to lead Tulane's program in 2014.

Hill was fired after the Pepper Hamilton investigation into Baylor's sexual assault scandal, an investigation in which numbers initially reported five football players accused of eight or more instances of sexual assault since 2009. By February, a court filing had bumped that to 31 football players allegedly committing at least 52 rapes from 2011-2014. Pepper Hamilton also found "institutional failures at every level," it said. A recent court filing elaborated.

"The football program was a black hole into which reports of misconduct such as drug use, physical assault, domestic violence, brandishing of guns, indecent exposure and academic fraud disappeared," the court filing reads.

The NCAA reportedly interviewed Hill in Dallas in January about both Baylor's volleyball and its football program.

KWTX retrieved an affidavit saying Barnes informed Hill of the alleged rape after it occurred but "did not provide details and did not expect him to act on the information" since he had already told then-Baylor athletic director Ian McCaw.

McCaw, who joined football coach Art Briles among those fired from the report, is now the athletic director at Liberty University.

Liberty continues to defend the hire, noting he was a "good man in a place where bad things were going on."

Per KWTX, Hill was "unable to comment when contacted," and the NCAA didn't respond to requests for comment Monday.
