So, who will be the next HFB Coach at MU?

I always say give a head coach 3 to 5 years to give him time to get his players in and his system. About the only reason I see why to get rid of the coach sooner is that he causes himself to get fired.
 
Pinkel showed the formula for being hiring a coach at mizzou. I think you have to take a shot with a young up and coming coach that has actually run his own program before.

Jeff Fisher's schedule looks pretty open... lol... Just kidding...

He is on the Hot seat now, no doubt, but he should get another year, but give him til the end of this year....

What have you seen from him that says he deserves another year?
 
Dave Aranda
Joe Moorehead
Rick Stockstill
Gotta write a big check and get bigger. Hire a real actual SEC coach. Briles...Miles...then go do some serious hunting if those two turn you down. Can't take a chance with another assistant unproven again. Aranda and Moorhead are really similar to Odom. Not much proven time as a coordinator at a P5 school. And if you're going to hire Stockstill, might as well take a swing at Miles first.
 
What about Mullet man, he can coach. Could he be lured away, look what he has done competing against his bigger cousin in the same state.
 
For the money, I think I would take Mullet. Briles has to much baggage, Miles followed Saban and was LSU a football power, but he was just average at OSU, so the question is could he repeat at that ZOU?

I agree. Hire Miles with the understanding that one of his 'chosen' assistants take over when he retires. I'd be for that.
 
Dude, Briles shouldn't go over well anywhere. He blatantly lied and covered up instances of rape and sexual assault. The man deserves to be banned from coaching at any level (even pee wee) for the rest of his life.
Exactly. Not like he got busted for recruiting violations. Dude aided and abetted rapists.

Have you actually read the reports? I'm not saying the man is a saint by any stretch. He's not the devil either. He'll be revived and get another shot somewhere. And he'll probably win a crap ton of games.

How? I'll admit I don't know much about it. And the how is an honest question. I sped through the report, read the text messages, and that's about it. What I gathered from that was a long way from aiding and abetting rapists. Pretty sure criminal charges would be pending for that. They (Baylor) certainly aren't going to pass on an opportunity to place blame squarely on him.

I have not. However, it had to be bad enough that Baylor felt the need to can the greatest coach they've ever had. He was a boon to that program and made them relevant on a national level.

I'd read the report. Or at least speed read it and hit the highlights. I'll admit, it's confusing. But not nearly as cut and dried (at least to me) as the media has made it seem.

Pretty cut and dry looks like a Joe Pa just ignoring the facts to keep winning.

A new Wall Street Journal report, based on interviews with Baylor regents, offers some clarity on the latter, while also finding that 17 women reported domestic violence or sexual assault incidents involving 19 football players since 2011, Briles’ fourth year at BU.

According to the report, 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.”

Read the texts that lead to this claim? It stinks, but not nearly as bad as the wording here. At least to me. I read them thinking there would be this dialogue planning a cover up or something. Just not the case. This is just the media's interpretation. The WSJ is media. The report that shows the messages and communication between Briles and staff just doesn't seem as blatant as the media portrays it. Maybe I expected something more overt, or I just plain missed it when speeding through it.
 
I'd also say as a private institution, Baylor can shield itself in ways a public university cannot. Like the poster said above, for Briles to be fired after being by far the best football coach ever at Baylor leads me to believe the regents know things that are not in the public domain, and the report prepared for the regents is plenty damning enough. This also took down multiple people aside from Briles. I would also point out that Briles dropped his suit against the university for libel.

A list of particularly disturbing text messages from Briles and the coaching staff can be found here: https://www.dallasnews.com/news/bay...isconduct-football-players-court-record-shows

Bottom line, Briles and others created a culture where violence against women was excused.

If he knew of anything as the head coach it is his job to get to the bottom of it, he is the final word, even if his intention was not to cover up he knew "something" was going on he KNEW IT so if he did not look into it or investigate that is were he went wrong. You as the Head coach are the ultimate final word that is your job as HEAD coach. end of story. So if somebody texted him anything about these incidents and he did nothing....he is at fault.
