September 11, 20232 yr Art is a piece of shit loser but he's allowed to attend games and wear team gear of his choosing. He doesn't have a sideline pass. He's there before and after the game speaking to relatives. OU hired Lebby knowing full well about his history. At some point they had to accept it if they offered him the gig. Honestly this is a bullshit story..... BUT if this is going to cause chaos in the OU program then I'm totally in favor of it. I am outraged! Burn down Norman!

Scores of forcible rapes and active cover-ups by Art, Kendall and Lebby. Every one of them. It was unimaginably bad.

September 11, 20232 yr From what I can tell, the majority of comments online are "He's family" or "He wasn't convicted of anything, right?" A whole lot of "no big deal" thoughts. So the fanbase is still shitty. The fact that Lebby has kinda sucked is the only reason there is any pushback online. If he was crushing it offensively, 99% would be "no big deal."
September 12, 20232 yr All these years later, college football still has an Art Briles problem Spoiler Let’s lead with what apparently bears repeating: Art Briles was fired as the football coach at Baylor in 2016 after an independent investigation of multiple sexual assaults involving Baylor student-athletes concluded Briles and his staff did not report their knowledge of those incidents to authorities. According to the investigation, the leadership of the football team “hindered enforcement of rules and policies, and created a cultural perception that football was above the rules.” On Saturday evening, Oklahoma offensive coordinator (and former Baylor assistant) Jeff Lebby stood defiant in front of the Sooners’ press corps when pressed on the attendance of his father-in-law, Briles, who was spotted on the Sooners’ sideline after their win over SMU wearing Oklahoma apparel. “That’s my father-in-law,” Lebby told reporters. “So he’s the grandfather to my two kids. So he was down with our entire family after the game, well after the game, but he was down there with the entire family.” When pressed by a reporter who stated, “Jeff, I think there’s going to be people who have trouble squaring that, because …” Lebby interjected: “Again, he’s with his entire family. That’s my father-in-law. That’s the grandfather to my two kids.” By Monday afternoon, Lebby’s stance and tone had predictably changed, after both Oklahoma Coach Brent Venables and Athletic Director Joe Castiglione expressed a mix of concern and confusion at Briles’s presence Saturday night. Lebby issued an apology, specifically (and only) for “something that created a distraction.” Believe what Lebby is saying: that it won’t happen again, namely because Lebby, considered a head coaching candidate someday soon, cannot professionally afford a career-afflicting moment such as this again, and because his bosses at Oklahoma are angry with him. Believe what Lebby is telling you, too: Between Saturday night and Monday afternoon, Lebby changed the picture on his Instagram profile to that of himself, his two children and Briles posing on the field at Oklahoma Memorial Stadium. Briles is wearing an Oklahoma shirt in the photo. Keep listening: A reasonable interpretation of Lebby’s disposition and posture during his Saturday night comments might be one of frustration. Or, considering Lebby’s history selling “CAB” (Coach Art Briles) T-shirts to support Briles after his firing, more likely one of open defiance. Those are entirely reasonable ways to receive the moment, although they may be a more generous interpretation extended to a man undeserving of it. What appears to be the real truth: Lebby fundamentally does not understand what the problem was, because he does not believe Briles was worthy of dismissal at Baylor or the career ignominy that has followed him. Whether that belief is genuine or a willful denial of fact is almost beside the point, although no one should be naive enough to attribute to this the proverb of stupidity mistaken as malice, because that’s the true horror facing this sport: Either is just as harmful, and both are in heavy supply. How else can we rationalize the persistence of Art Briles? Saturday marked the latest in an incomprehensible parade of public associations, appearances and even attempts at employment by one of the most disgraced names in the history of college football. Not even a year after his firing, Briles sought a new coaching job in the Canadian Football League in 2017 before public backlash caused the Hamilton Tiger-Cats to bail on the idea. Briles settled on a job coaching pro football in Italy in 2018. Most jarring is that Briles successfully returned home to his roots, securing a high school head coaching job in Mount Vernon, Tex., for two seasons in 2019 and 2020. From 2019: Art Briles is coaching again and wants to leave it at that But he wants back in college football, the site of his disgrace, and persists in trying. In 2019, Briles interviewed for the offensive coordinator job at Southern Mississippi under former head coach Jay Hopson. When university leadership swarmed to reject even the idea of Briles as a candidate, let alone his hiring, Hopson mirrored Briles’s son-in-law and leaped to his defense. Undeterred, Briles actually cleared the interview process in 2022 at Grambling, where Coach Hue Jackson also defended the move publicly before pressure from the university, including Grambling legend Doug Williams, forced a Briles “resignation.” Jackson was among the first to embrace Briles after his firing, inviting him to attend practices when Jackson was coach of the Cleveland Browns. Lebby is not alone here; Briles’s son, Kendall, also a Baylor assistant during the period of sexual assaults, has moved through a variety of high-profile assistant coaching jobs and is the offensive coordinator for TCU. And along the way, dad has stopped by practice. So while a grossly unforced error for Oklahoma, Saturday night’s gaffe was by no means unique. More importantly, neither is what happened at Baylor. Take the unfolding story at Michigan State, where Coach Mel Tucker has been suspended without pay after he was accused of sexual harassment by sexual assault prevention activist Brenda Tracy. (Tucker said in a statement Monday that his relationship with Tracy was “entirely mutual.”) If we’re to expect any good faith in the words that come from those in power, we should believe only what we hear the first time, not after the correction and not after the outcry. Lebby hasn’t changed his mind — he has changed his position in an act of professional self-preservation. So what happens if he’s the head coach somewhere in the near future, with one fewer person above him who can prevent that grandfather from showing back up? It really doesn’t matter whether Lebby or anyone else caping for Briles is doing so in defiance of the truth or genuinely can’t believe it. Both are terrifying, and either way it’s publicly manufactured aggrievement that shifts victimhood from sexual assault survivors to men in power. Either way, you should listen when they tell you. https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2023/09/12/art-briles-jeff-lebby-oklahoma/ Edited September 12, 20232 yr by Wilcox Cummingtonite
