I just don't think Baylor cares - nor does the student body, the alumnus, or the community
Add NCAA to that list.

"Judge" Ken Starr runs a tight ship!!
Baptist Jesus knows it's important to get even.So to add even more Texas-style drama to this story Geoff Ketchum, the guy who runs the Bevo Rivals site Orangebloods, has been pretty aggressive on calling out Baylor on this travesty, and one of his staff reporters posted on that site that a friend he really trusts recently called him to warn him that some people he was associated with in Waco had indicated a group of Baylor boosters were so angry about it that they were looking to dig up any dirt they could find on him to "bury him." He and his family have also apparently received threats, I'm assuming of the anonymous internet troll hero variety.
It's nice to see the folks in Waco keeping their priorities straight. Its a really dark side of fandom to see what folks are willing to hand wave away after getting a taste of winning following years of futility.

Tweeter and blogger Alex Dunlap has also been getting Baylored after having the audacity to report on sexual abuse within the football program. After receiving some strong-arm threats and general skullduggery, he's now done reporting anything more on the sexual abuse on the Baylor Campus. Hell hath no fury like scorned Baylor fans.

From one who often says to much:Waco is bizzaro world.
A decade ago when Baylor finally got good in basketball, Baylor fan emerged. I had only heard of them existing as a few scattered lawyers throughout the state. "Baylor" was spoken of as a mark of white educated privilege and piety, and mutually exclusive from sports fandom. Then Scott Drew started cheating his way to wins and doing a good job erasing the perception of the team as irrelevant murderers. I thought, "So this is how bad Baylor fans get when they decide to start repping their school because they're suddenly good."
When the time came for football to succeed I was not prepared for the magnitude at which that bandwagoning passion intensified. They will protect this any way they can. They can't go back to the dark times! This ride has been too fun! Screw morality. The church just made that stuff up, anyhow.
I think Miami was making a Ken Starr joke, actually.Does this septic tank in Waco have no bottom.
Agree with the call for a special prosecutor. This needs to be out of the hands of the school and of local law enforcement. Need a qualified investigator who has not ties and no obligation to Baylor.
Considering the history of the school with criminal and immoral activity this really isn't surprising. They need to drop a bomb on it and start over again.

Only when it's in reference to Luke's alien tattoo.I always thought that the term "Ken Starr joke" was a UBL in itself.

It is the sole topic on all of the shows on the College Sports network on Sirius XM. I'm in full support of getting out the biggest microscope possible and focusing it on that cesspool until they burn.The top radio sports show in Houston devoted their entire show to the topic yesterday. Nice
The hypocrisy gets worse. According to the Outside the Lines report, an alleged victim reported that her boyfriend at the time, a Baylor player, had assaulted her twice. Who did she tell? The Waco police, of course, and the Bears team chaplain. Eventually, Briles and Baylor president Ken Starr were notified of her allegations, but the player was never disciplined. The woman didn’t press criminal charges because, she told Outside the Lines, “I’d seen other girls go through it, and nothing ever happened to the football players.” In addition, Pepper Hamilton never reached out to speak with her.
