Baylor Firing Art Briles Doesn't Mean They'll Hire Dino Babers

Art Briles is no longer the coach of the Baylor Bears football program. The architect of BU's turnaround was let go by the university today, citing Briles's handling of player-related domestic violence and sexual assault issues, and the resulting scandal that's still yet to conclude. The third-party report on the extent of issues under Briles's watch is now out, if you choose to read. It's a pretty disgusting collection of willful ignorance by the football program from 2012-2015.

As you well know, Syracuse Orange head coach Dino Babers was an assistant under Briles at Baylor just before that time frame, from 2008-2011.
