Remove Art Briles from candidate list?

[diadevic]

"Guest Coach" for Cleveland Browns. Probably best (at least short term) for his career and the school he ultimately ends up with, if any.

I think his career is over. After what he's made so far, I don't think any school willing to hire him will pay him what he thinks he deserves.

I think someone will give Briles a chance to coach next year. He's too good of a coach and people tend to let things go over time.

But will they meet his salary demands?

 

[SEC*SEC*SEC*]

Auburn WILL BE willing to hire him and make him RICH... Auburn is dispart to keep up with Alabama and the rest of the SEC... They will hire the scumbag... Hell, they hired Bruce Pearl for their Basketball coach when NO ONE in the nation would hire him...
Art Briles will be the next football coach at Auburn... Maybe not the next season, 2017 but 2018 for sure... Auburn is BROKE and Gus Malazan's buyout is more than they have at this time... If they had the money they would Hire Art Briles NOW...

Some school will be desperate enough to hire him. Ethics always seem to go out the window when a folks are trying to get a program back on track.

Art Briles will never be the head coach at a P5 school again. The Title 9 risks are just too high and the damage caused at Baylor will be in litigation for the next 5-10 years.

Briles never, Petrino? Maybe.

I'll take that bet. My out is that he may go the pro route. But once everyone lets the dust settle and gets off their sanctimonious high horse, some downtrodden program tired of getting its a** kicked will decide its time to "forgive" and give a "second chance." Pardon my cynicism.

I think his age has something to do with it as well. He's already past 60 and doesn't have a lot of years to rehab his image. There's just going to be too much baggage to deal. He might get a shot at a mid major.

Agreed. Baylor is going to spend more time in court room than judge Judy.

He is too old and it would take too long to build a program good enough to overtake Saban and Alabama.When you are at Auburn that goal would be at the top of the list and many a coach has bit the dust not beating Alabama.

Should never have been on the list to begin with.

He is younger than Saban -- just gotta out last him!

 

[speedstrength]

Depends on how fast Baylor settles the lawsuits. If any go to trial the details of the PH report are fair game which could lead to a pretrial deposition of Briles. What school wants their HC going to a deposition about covering up rape allegations.

At 65 years old though you have to figure Saban won't be there a whole lot longer.

It must suck to be dispart

It is Christs fault. See Auburns payments to Cam Newtons dads church. It answers your question.
