Garland told WFAA: "I'm always interested in people saying 'we need more transparency' when they ask me questions. And I say, 'Well, if we hadn't been so transparent, you wouldn't have known to ask me that question.'"
Garland also told WFAA that Baylor would become "the safest place on the planet."



Baylor will become the safest place on the planet because no one will know that it's not safe. Don't universities have some sort of PR people to help them navigate?

Is this where we begin to see releases or is it different in this case because he is a JUCO transfer?
He was apparently asked not to enroll per an insider on Baylor 247. He likely did something bad in his past that Briles was ok with, but Grobe was not. So it's totally different than the other signees.

Higdon:

Again, I am ONLY following this as it pertains to Texas and recruiting.....so here goes......

I just had a call from someone who filled me in on some pretty interesting stuff. The entire bring Briles back deal is a ploy to try and keep recruits. They are hoping that some of the recruits would cave/enroll thinking Briles would get the one-year suspension, but the powers that be know they aren’t or can’t bring him back. Also, Baylor has already reached out to three people regarding the head coaching job, two of them are Dino Babers and Todd Graham. I was told Grobe would or could be the next Baylor AD.

LB Tyler Taylor of Buford, GA talks about his unofficial visit to Texas (OrangeBloods):

"I’m really trying to do that (trim list of schools) in the next week or so, but I don’t know if that will happen," Taylor said. "A lot of schools are coming at me so that makes it hard trying to figure out which schools to narrow it down to."

"I think I’m pretty open right now. I do like Texas a lot," Taylor said. "I had a really deep man to man conversation with coach (Charlie) Strong and with my mom. I thought that was really cool."

"Probably the community," Taylor said when asked what stood out about the visit. "I had a Texas shirt on, everywhere I went it was ‘Hook’Em Horns.’ I probably heard that like 20 times before I got on campus. I thought that was pretty cool."

"They think they’re going to have a big year this year," Taylor said. "After this year, they’re going to need linebackers so it would be the perfect chance for me to come in and play early."

"It is tough, but I’m kind of mixed on that right now. Sometimes I want to be far away from home, sometimes I want to be close to home," Taylor said. "I’m really used to it though because I used to play AAU basketball and we traveled all over the country all the time."

"She’s (Taylor's mother) going to support me whatever I do, if I stay close to home or go away. But she says it is good to go see different parts of the world," Taylor said.

Some excerpts:

"A lawsuit filed Wednesday against Baylor University cites three women as victims of sexual assault, including one who said she was assaulted by a Bears football player ON CAMPUS in April 2014."

--So there goes the "everything was off campus" "argument"

"The other two alleged assailants are not identified as athletes"

-So it's not just football players that get away with it.

The woman in Wednesday's lawsuit who reported the assault involving the football player stated that she went to a university physician two days after the incident, and the physician "misinformed Jane Doe 1 and concealed from Jane Doe 1 as to her options to further report the incident," according to the lawsuit.

"The lawsuit stated that she also reported the alleged assault to the Baylor campus advocacy center during final exams, but the university did not provide her any assistance, and she was "left to cope with the situation alone and in fear.""..."Stress caused her to perform poorly in her classes. She lost her academic scholarship and dropped out after fall 2015."

"The second incident detailed in the lawsuit alleges an assault from 2004... She reported it to her chaplain at the Baylor dorm and the dorm hall director was informed. She also made a report to Baylor police, whom she states misinformed and concealed from her the consequences for filing a report, which discouraged her from naming the person whom she said assaulted her. When she went to the Baylor Health Center, she said they did a physical exam, but no rape kit...she ended up reporting the incident to an assistant dean -- who later encouraged her to withdraw from school after her grades began to suffer"

" The third woman stated that she and her alleged assailant were both staff members at the university dorms and that she was sexually harassed and assaulted by him from fall 2013 through December 2015. Although the lawsuit did not name him, it stated that he was "an assistant to the highest officials in the University."...she sought counseling in fall 2014, but after she exhausted her free sessions, the Baylor counseling center told her she'd have to look elsewhere for treatment. The lawsuit states that she also reported the alleged assault to the health center, and eventually to Baylor police"

" Attorney John Clune of Boulder, Colorado, who represented the former Baylor women's soccer player in her case against the school, told Outside the Lines last month that he might have as many as three additional victims who might file lawsuits against Baylor."

Fucking awesome news.

[texas4ever]

UPDATE (7:31 pm): I just spoke with Erick Fowler. He let me know that he did receive his test scores today. He said he spoke to Texas today and based on those conversations he believes he is “good to go”. Fowler said that all that remains for him to do is to submit his final transcript to UT along with his test score. He noted that after hearing about his scores the Texas coaches were excited and expressed as much to him.

Fowler said he’s hopeful that he will be able to report sometime before the second summer session begins. All this comes straight from Erick so it certainly gives fans reason to feel optimistic. However, I would caution our readers to keep in mind that we have no access to any academic information so we are not able to independently verify anything. Additionally, we all saw what happened last year in the Lampkin situation.

There is reason to be optimistic but I’d save the confetti until the star linebacker is on campus. – (Super K)

I am a horrible speller but gotta say some words ,misspelled, just look wrong immediately. Maybe he is a math wiz so we don't have to worry about SATs. It just seems like these kids, so athletically gifted, would be made aware of academics by now. No pass no play was a big step. But someone has to help these kids understand. A situation like the Spanish class and credits should never happen IMO.

Sorry for the mini rant. I guess the chronology of worrying about SAT scores and blatant errors struck my fat head the wrong way. And he did use a number of extra "y's" in his own name so I might be missing the joke.

[rjv]

if Baylor brings back Briles, then I'm hoping the rest of the Big 12 will vote to kick them out. I don't know if it is even possible, but this is unacceptable. The man facilitated the cover-up of several rapes and other abuses by his players. And they want to bring him back.

http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/16257188/fired-coach-art-briles-accuses-baylor-university-wrongful-termination

AUSTIN, Texas -- Fired Baylor coach Art Briles is ripping his former employer, accusing the school of wrongful termination and indicating he has no interest in settling a federal lawsuit filed against him and the university by a woman who was raped by a football player.

In a motion filed Thursday as part of the lawsuit. Briles said he wants a judge to assign him new counsel, and his personal attorney, Ernest Cannon, said the school was using the coach as a scapegoat for its failings in handling allegations of sexual assault.

Because it appears Baylor, Briles, and even the Waco Police did a bit of "nudge, nudge, wink, wink," the plethora of law suits could be very damaging. Baylor University could be paying some hefty money, God Bless them. The same lawyers that probably helped keep Briles and Baylor going before last season even began, the possible "let's get our story's straight" might be really bad for Baylor now that Briles has got his attorney. And all the girls involved... what a mess...

Definitely popcorn worthy, lots o butter.

Not a law guy either, glad I'm not. I would rather watch it unfold than have to figure it out.

A few quotes from new offer, 2018 DT Bobby Brown of Arlington Lamar (24/7):

“It means a lot to me,” Brown said. “One of my former teammates goes there, so if I were to go there, I know I wouldn’t be alone. Out of all the kids they could have offered, they offered me, so it means a lot.”

“Shane (Buechele) has told me some good things about it,” Brown said. “He said that there is a great culture there. He said that people look out for you a lot. So I’m just going to do some more research on it.”

“It’s a nice school,” Brown said. “I don’t know a whole lot about it, though. But it’s one of the schools on my list. I don’t really know what I like about the program, but I want to learn about it.”

[pgardn]

All of their workpapers, recordings, written communications, etc in this case are privileged communications, you can't depose the attorneys even if not suing Baylor.

Sorry for the bother to you and other posters but I am curious:

If the law firm was hired to do an internal investigation (not criminal investigation for future suit; like an audit) but were not the lawyers to represent Baylor in the various suits to come forth the lawyers can't be deposed as they were still acting in/on Baylor's behalf?

Ok this makes as it's almost like dropping an attorney for another? You can't go back to the first attorney. It would almost be like Baylor spilling the beans on itself as Baylor asked for the investigation. So if a company wants to carry out illegal stuff it's best to have an in house attorney who could essentially work on hiding stuff and then represent you. Obviously I am Not a lawyer, so this stuff creeps me out a bit. The mob guys used this extensively I guess. A lawyer to mop up who can even help one plan crimes.

Sorry for the type think... If I am off on some point help. Sorry to others, I don't like to personal mail bother.

"I don't have a crystal ball to give...that's for sure. I asked specifically about how the visit went and was told "it's hard to tell". That tells me that they don't think it's a slam dunk that he ends up at TCU...but that's not saying he doesn't end up at TCU either.

[TFloss32]

2018 LB Alston Orji of Rockwall discusses UT (24/7):

“It’s a blessing to get these offers,” Orji said. “I’ve loved most of the schools that have offered me since I was 12 years old. To get these offers four years later is just crazy. I always thought I would get offers but never sophomore year going into junior year.”

"An offer from Texas is an amazing honor," Orji said. "Very few Class of 2018 recruits have an offer from Texas and to be one of them motivates me to prove I'm deserving."

“They are at the top of my list along with some other schools. They are definitely up there. I’m really interested in Texas. They are a big powerhouse school.”

“We talk sometimes,” Orji said. “He’s (Chris Warren) a big guy. He’s huge, so I’m trying to get bigger. He always teases me that I’ll never be as big as him.”

So the judge won't prosecute because of insufficient evidence...

Yet the reasoning is:

"I want to emphasize once again that the main reason I'm doing this is that I refuse to ruin the lives of two young men who have spent their adolescence and teenage years, working and sweating, while we were all in the air conditioning," district attorn


And a cop caught them with all the evidence. Handguns, one stolen and drugs at 2 am in a park.

Football Brainiacs:


Have been gathering a little behind the scenes information on how the summer is going for the team. Here are a few notable notes…

Guys Standing Out: The usual suspects are Collin Johnson and John Burt. As you would expect those two look great.

A young guy who was mentioned to me is Lil Jordan Humphrey, “for a big guy he can really sink his hips and get out of his break”.

Source said, “Armanti (Foreman) is putting in work…he looks better and you can tell there is a renewed sense of motivation”. I assume this sense of renewed motivation has a lot to do with the new offense and the rise of Shane Buechele.

“Davion Curtis has speed that everyone has to respect…it opens up a lot of routes for him…comebacks and whatnot”

I was told the freshmen defensive linemen are not acting like freshmen. In workouts they are competing with the older guys…they’re jumping to the front of the line. “Guys like ****** are not here to sit the bench their freshmen year…its pretty clear they are here to play.”

Buechele is the best QB. Was told Swoopes is probably third after Heard in terms of how he performs in 7 on 7. Was also told Swoopes is still holding on to the ball…”even in 1 on 1s he holds on to the ball”. Source also added, “In 7 on 7 a wide receiver will be open but he (Swoopes) just keeps patting the ball until the DB catches up to the receiver”.

I was told that Buechele knows he can win the spot. He’s taken a leadership role especially among the freshmen. Source said,”He’s vocal…you can tell he can taste it and he wants it. Sterlin takes the most interest in him but you can also tell Sterlin is going to keep holding that carrot out in front of him to make sure he continues to compete.”

Was also told that the upperclassmen have embraced the freshmen. There is strong team chemistry in general. You typically think of upperclassmen being a little stand offish with regards to freshmen because of the threat that they may take their spot. But I’m told that isn’t the case. Probably the best quote I got from a source, “They (the freshmen and upperclassmen) all want to win and they know they have to do it together.”

http://collegesports.blog.statesman.com/2016/06/21/big-12-to-take-action-against-baylor/

According to Oklahoma president David Boren, the Big 12 will take action against Baylor in the wake of a sexual assault scandal that’s rocked the campus while making national news.

Boren said the Baylor situation was discussed on a recent teleconference (http://www.tulsaworld.com/sportsextra/ousportsextra/ou-s-david-boren-big-will-issue-statement-on-baylor/article_2409fa1b-780e-51b1-8215-abd70239c8ae.html?utm_content=buffer302db&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer) and that the league will make an announcement about its plans, Wednesday.

Bobby Burton Thursday Notes:


I am told that of the recruits who enrolled at Texas during the first summer session, Denzel Okafor is the single player who has caught everyone's attention. That goes for upperclassmen and true freshmen alike.
But just how impressed?
Barring injury, I'll be highly surprised if Okafor isn't starting the first game of the year, either supplanting Brandon Hodges at guard or even pushing Kent Perkins down to guard and Okafor replacing him at tackle.
In this Texas offense, with so many quick throws and power plays run inside, there are perhaps fewer requirements and expectations for a young player at tackle than at guard.
Furthermore, playing both Okafor and Shackelford next to one another as true freshmen inside may not be what the coaches feel like is the best mix.
**
We can debate whether or not Devin Duvernay will become an immediate starter at inside receiver. But I think it's but guaranteed he will be the kick returner from day one.
Texas has used Rod Bernard in that role, and it looked like Bernard and/or Kris Boyd would get the calls for this season. But I think a combo of Duvernay and Boyd is exactly what the doctor ordered.

OL JP Urquidez - all they know is he has a specific school in mind.

CB Parrish Cobb - OU or UT, and they believe UT has the slight lead right now.

Orangebloods said 3 or 4 last night and Urquidez would be the one left out: Cobbs, Hudson, Donovan, and Martin. OB is actually very positive about Cobbs where none of the other sites are. I tend to go with Higdon on matters like this one. My guess is Hudson, Donovan, and Martin for sure are coming to Texas.

[TFloss32]

FWIW, Inside Texas thinks the staff has room for at least five new players.

They're expecting a couple of guys, possibly TE Blake Whiteley, to take a medical redshirt before fall camp starts along with the usual attrition we see every year.

Inside Texas also mentioned they believe Urquidez would be the take over Cobb if it came down to it because of a need for OL depth.

When the Baylor players received their releases yesterday, a Texas commitment texted them and said "JP is coming to UT."

[TFloss32]

OrangeBloods reported last night that OL Xavier Newman of DeSoto is a candidate to flip to Oklahoma soon.

He might be visiting Norman this weekend and could switch his commitment if he receives an offer.

Obviously sucky news, but landing Hudson and Urquidez would more than make up for the potential loss.

[Jimmiemac]

Assuming Donovan is in, 2 maybe 3 from what I've heard.

Wow, not familiar enough with the roster but how did they fall that short in numbers for 2016? No way were they anticipating this so they left basically 4 slots unfilled at signing date?

[TFloss32]

SCOUT reporting that Kameron Martin will take visit to UT next Friday.

Not sure how this is going to work out with the Baylor kids, but a dead period starts on June 27th and runs through July 10th.

If the dead period rules apply in this situation, that means the released players won't be allowed to make any visits until after the 10th.

The players can still call the staff to talk things over, but no face-to-face contact.

Texas' second summer session starts on July 11th.

[TFloss32]

Wow, not familiar enough with the roster but how did they fall that short in numbers for 2016? No way were they anticipating this so they left basically 4 slots unfilled at signing date?

I'd have to look at my old notes, but I'm almost positive UT was never over the 85-man limit.

They've also had several transfers since Signing Day (Colbert, Echols, Raulerson, Roberson, Roberts, Santos, etc.).

They're currently at 84 with the addition of Duvernay, and that count includes Southall, Fowler and two walk-ons who received scholarships last year (Ashby and Templin).

I'm unsure if the walk-ons will have those scholarships renewed for this year and it sounds like at least one guy will get a medical scholarship due to consecutive knee injuries.

24/7 said earlier in the week they expect at least two more guys to transfer before fall camp which isn't a stretch at all considering there are still a few Mack guys who don't get playing time.

Texas' second summer session starts on July 11th.tfis would be a great thing for us. I don't want them visiting any other places. If they base everything off their recruitment that ended in February, we should be in a great place.

[BlueTiger]

It's a waste of time for any fan to try to figure out the numbers or how it might work. The coaches know exactly what their doing and can take all of them if the kid wants to be there and the coaches want them. And I believe you will see them take as many as they can, since it's top skill at postitions of need and you don't have to recruit and wait until feb 2017 to get them.
As floss said, there are still walk-on scholarships that can be taken back and used. As well as a few transfers from people that have contributed nothing. It's not harsh, that just how it goes. You're given a scholarship to do a certain job and when someone cant hold their end of the deal up then you need to replace them with someone that will. Just like in the workplace. They won't be tossed out to the streets, they will have good landing spots for them.

How about waiting until you have either graduated from the school, or left for the pros, before inking away your body.......these kids today are way too impulsive when it comes to tattoos and social media. Of course social media is a new thing, so hopefully these impulses to talk about every little thing in life will drop off a bit.

If we miss on Cobb does Texas then pursue Martin since it will free another spot? A lot of questions covering the same topic...

I've been curious if Parrish Cobb is a DB wouldn't we have more value in Kam Martin being that we have a need for more offensive production? Aren't we loaded at DB? Also some are reporting that Cobb's father didn't make the trip to Texas this morning so it could be a bad sign as he favors OU. If we miss on Cobb does Texas then pursue Martin since it will free another spot? A lot of questions covering the same topic...we are not loaded at the CB position. Actually, all three of the DBs that we recruited in the 2016 class are projected to be Safeties. We are more stacked at RB than tge CB position.

Also, apparently Cobb's dad not being there is positive. Also, IT saying that Hudson may be visiting today.

Eric Nahlin has alerted us, "Adjust your boners, guys and gals."

JP came in early and took a spot that was probably not reserved for him. The combination of uncertainty in Hudson and Cobb probably forced the staff to take him. Granted they wanted him, but believe Kam had his spot, but being the early bird, he got the worm. Brilliantly executed by him in my opinion. It's a fluid situation and anything could happen, but 24 hours ago, taking JP was the smart choice. He's a solid player and a bird in the hand... Kam is more of a luxury than a necessity. CB is a spot that needs to be addressed and Cobb was probably the best CB avaliable last year.

Wells-Sunday morning update:


Cobb is on campus. His dad is not, which probably benefits Texas.


Hudson could be soon, like we've posted for two days.


As soon as more happens, we'll update.

24/7 said he came in town to see CB Eric Cuffee and celebrate his birthday.

The UT coaches knew he arrived on campus and were expecting him this morning, but he didn't show up.

Worth mentioning his father wants him at Oklahoma and his father didn't make the trip to Austin.

Time to make the call to Kam Martin.

Nah, just get Patrick Hudson and call it a top 5 class.

Nah, just get Patrick Hudson and call it a top 5 class.

I'd be happy with grabbing Hudson and calling it a day. Saves more room for 2017 class just a bit of uncertainty across the board with these guys.

At this point I'm starting to wonder if we get anyone else.

From Football Brainiacs:

– UPDATE (Sun., 1:53 pm): I have spoken to a few people regarding the Parrish Cobb situation. This is what I have been told. Cobb was scheduled to meet with Texas HC, Charlie Strong yesterday. Cobb was hours late. In the evening Strong let Parrish know that he would be able to meet with him in the morning. Cobb did not meet with Strong.

Why? I can’t answer that definitively. However, I have been told that Parrish favors Texas but Parrish’s father favors OU. This was a theme towards the end of his recruitment back in January and February. Cobb ended up at Baylor, I’m told, as a sort of compromise. Additionally, his mother preferred Baylor.

One source joked saying, maybe this time TCU will end up winning by default. I have been told that the Cobb’s would like to make a decision very soon, ideally this evening, but based on how this thing has played out so far, there is no way I would stand by any timeline.

Cobb has ties at both OU and Texas. At OU there is a support staff member who Parrish has known for quite some time. Also he is close to OU players Dede Westbrook and Kahlil Haughton. Cobb’s older sister graduated from Texas and his family member, Eric Cuffee is a freshmen DB at Texas. –

At this point it would be gravy. As of the now, the already strong 2016 is stronger than it was this time last week. Got an instant game changer at a skill position, got oline depth, and an athlete to mold.
