Homeboy seems to be implying that since Briles would have been "just an assistant" he would not need to be entrusted to report information about possible assaults.  That's not his "JOB".  That's clearly wrong, and it's pretty tone deaf and disturbing that this guy doesn;t seem to recognize it.

The way that is worded strongly suggests there was a lot of external pressure (alumni, boosters) to stay away from Briles.

 

I like that.  Briles needs to be crowdsourced out of college football FOREVER.

I never really heard of Jay Hopson so I googled him.  This tidbit came out:

"He was a four-time Academic All-SEC honor roll selection..."

How fitting for a total and complete moron.

Jay Hopson seems smart. And by smart I mean like a fucking moron.

Fuck this Hopson guy too. Stop trying to use a purported allegiance to "God" to excuse deplorable behavior, it makes you sound like an asshole. I don't give a flying fuck what Briles or Hopson "believe in" if they are complicit in the maintenance of rampant rape culture. Regardless of what he "believes" (which is conveniently impossible to prove), Briles's actions make him a piece of shit unworthy of the privilege of coaching again.

This is the correct answer. The fact that this jackass would even consider adding Briles to his staff shows why he desperately needs to vet his candidate through his superiors.

Jay Hopson is fucking bonkers. I don't know how he doesn't get fired for that shit. 

"He seemed sincere and humble" - 

Are you shitting me? He seemed sincere & humble when he covered up the rapes too, but it doesn't make it fucking true.

contorted twisted views of religion?  Yep.

 

Forgiving someone and acknowledging that you do not issue judgment on their soul doesn't mean they just get to start over from square one. 

It just means you're not the one sending them to hell.

It doesn't mean you ignore their history and set the table for a repeat of similar transgressions.

Seriously, how secure is Hopson's job?  7-6/8-5/6-5 is definitely better than some years at Southern Miss, but you're not getting statues built.

USM used to have standards where they demanded a bowl every year. Then Ellis Johnson happened.

Come on, Briles has never done anything immoral or unethical.  He said that himself.

I've paid my dues
Time after time
I've done my sentence
But committed no crime
And bad mistakes 
I've made a few
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face
But I've come through

So I moved overseas and tried to get jobs through the back door.

WHAT:  Briles gets High School coaching job??

Fired Baylor coach Briles lands Texas HS job

7:54 PM CT

ESPN News Services

Art Briles, the former Baylor football coach who was fired three years ago amid a sexual assault scandal at the Baptist school, has been hired to lead an East Texas high school program.  Mount Vernon Independent School District Superintendent Jason McCullough announced Friday the board of trustees had approved a two-year contract with Briles, who was 65-37 in eight seasons with Baylor. Before coaching in college, Briles had a successful 20-year career as a high school coach in Texas.

"We believe we have hired an exceptional coach who comes with strong references from his previous employers," McCullough told ESPN-Central Texas AM Radio. "He has been forthright and honest with us and we believe that he will be able to use his life experiences to teach our young people how to deal with hardships, grow through adversity and develop strong character."

Briles had not been able to land a coaching job in the United States since being let go by Baylor. Southern Mississippi coach Jay Hopson wanted to hire Briles as offensive coordinator in February, but the school's athletic director quashed the idea. Briles was hired as an assistant by Hamilton in the Canadian Football League in 2017, but after public backlash the Tiger-Cats quickly rescinded the move.

Briles was hired in 2018 to coach a team in Florence, Italy. 

"High school football is a Texas institution. As a coach, it's my first love. You'll make no bigger impact in this world than when you shape the lives of young people -- one practice, one game, and one life at a time. I am excited to be coaching at Mount Vernon this fall,'' Briles said in a statement.

Briles won four state championships at Stephenville in the 1990s, the last in 1999 before joining Mike Leach at Texas Tech. Briles was head coach at the University of Houston from 2003 to 2007, going 34-28 before taking over at Baylor.  Mount Vernon High has never appeared in a state championship game, according to Texas Football magazine.

The 63-year-old Briles, who led the Bears to consecutive Big 12 titles in 2013 and 2014, was fired after an external investigation revealed in May 2016 that Baylor had for years mishandled numerous sexual assault allegations by students, including some against football players.  The Pepper Hamilton firm's investigation found at least 17 women who reported being sexually assaulted by 19 football players.  Briles has insisted he did not cover up reports of assaults by players. Baylor is still waiting for the outcome of an NCAA investigation into the school's conduct

The press release said he came with great references from former employers...

Well of course he has great references.  baylor still thinks nothing really happened except UT sicking the media meanies on them.

What a sick fucking joke.

 

If my kids played football in that school, they'd be out.  Play football at the next town over, or just focus elsewhere.  That school administration didn't make a statement about 'forgiveness,' it said winning matters way the fuck more than character.  that's not what i'm looking for in a high school coach.  Period.
