Baylor Rape HQ - (major lawsuit settled)

keep trying
I HATE Stephen A and 100 times out of 100 will take the opposite position to whatever he says... but he is spot on and I applaud him for this
So, 99 times out of 100?
I was told there'd be no math.
Whoa! Someone finally stood up! Nice job, Big 12 leadership!
Well the Big 12 is doing something at least with 25% revenue withheld until Baylor can prove they cleaned up their act.

Eh, read closer. Big 12 is merely acting like it's doing something. They're really not...

52 alleged rapes = 25% revenue withholding (which is almost certainly to be restored to bailer once the full PR value of the B12 "doing something" has been exhausted). So in the B12 an alleged rape costs you about 1/2% of revenue...good to know.

Saw that after I posted. They get it back if the big 12 thinks they're compliant. Ridiculous. They're just making it look like they're doing something.
They've already demonstrated they won't do ****. 52 alleged rapes and you can go through life with a clear conscience? They need to get the hammer dropped on them, like a permanent ban. NCAA has no balls though so doubt it will happen, they ****ing deserve it though.
So... wait- let me get this straight: we had 10 straight months of "why won't someone do something about bailer" and now that the Big 12 takes the first step it's not good enough?
What if the independent third party review documents hard evidence that forms the basis for a Title IX lawsuit?

The Big 12 isn't doing a thorough investigation of the allegations. They are looking into whether they've made the necessary changes... No, it's not good enough. This isn't even a slap on the wrist. It's a potential slap on the wrist.
I would say it is the appearance of doing something with an incredibly small chance of a slap on the wrist. In other words, it is politically expedient bull****.
Baylor is gonna want that money. To get that money, it's going to have to release information it has refused to make public if it wants to make its case.
I think it's a pretty savvy move for the Big 12 to make, considering that it doesn't have investigative authority and has questionable jurisdiction within the conference by-laws.
Rather than play ball, I expect Baylor to sue the Big 12.

I would go so far as to say that it looks lie this is being done to protect ****bailer. Notice that they are not talking about punishing them for the horrible **** they have already done. They are talking about doing an audit to show the world that they have the minimum requirement of protections in place now. Sort of like self-reporting violations in the hope that the NCAA will not come down as hard because the institution is out in front of things. To be clear, all that the conference is doing is requiring them to meet the baseline standards that all programs are required to meet.
The important things to note:
1) Zero penalties for past wrongdoing
2) Requirements for receiving their entire share of profits are entirely proactive.
The Big XII obviously needs ****bailer not to get the death penalty. IMO, this is just them playing the game to prevent that from happening.

Baylor's accreditation could be on probation soon.

yessssss
Sadly if we know about 52 what is the real number. They haven't exactly made it a safe and comfortable environment in which to report. As a husband and father of two girls I hate to even think about it.
That's why folks were fired.
They were supposed to keep it under 5 rapes per win with the football program.
Who the hell knows what the number is but they aren't gonna get anything most likely. Maybe a few things here and there but the death penalty won't be one of them. It's like they are gun shy since the SMU decision. Yeah but give us sanctions for letting walkons eat, something wrong with that to me.
Hell, I don't even know but why the **** does that matter anyway? 1 is too many for my taste.

This. You can ignore rapes but don't give any kids food or gifts because that's the worst thing in the world.
