Baylor fired former football coach Art Briles after a wave of sexual assault allegations engulfed the program and the school. Baylor and Briles settled out of court, so it's safe to assume he received a few satchels of cash before he rode off into the sunset.
Plot twist! Briles doesn't plan on riding off into the sunset. He plans on replacing another fired coach this November or December.
From espn.com:
"I'm dumbfounded and trying to process everything as it goes, but it is what it is," Briles said. "Reality is reality and so what I've got to do is redefine myself and start a new chapter. And that's what I'm doing."
[...]
"I hope November, December, that's the plan," Briles said. "Unfortunately some job will come open. I've never rooted against anybody or any team, but that's the nature of the business, so we'll see what happens then. But like I said it's going to be a new journey and I'm excited to take it. I really am."
Hopefully no school will bite, but unfortunately some institution of higher learning won't be able to resist an offensive guru like Briles. That school will get shamed when it hires him, and it will be deserved.
