GUILTY!!

"Baylor defensive end Sam Ukwuachu was found guilty Thursday of sexually assaulting a then-Baylor soccer player in 2013.

A jury in the Waco, Texas, 54th State District Court convicted Ukwuachu, 22, of one count of sexual assault.

After the verdict, the judge ruled Ukwuachu's bond was insufficient and ordered him jailed. The punishment phase of the trial is to continue Friday. Ukwuachu faces up to 20 years in prison. He is seeking probation, the Waco Tribune reported."

Sanity does win Bob, sometimes.

On a side note, did you know that El Paso has the highest gas prices in Texas? Yup, we have a major refinery and storage and pipeline infrastructure right here in little ol' El Paso, and promised lowest rates anywhere if allowed to build. Remember that crap? Well, we got a new medical school and UTEP got a new basketball facility for all those supposed low rates.

Those west Texas and southern New Mexico cheap gas rates also helped build this as well........(yup, a gift from Foster)

Insanity won in this case. The perp got probation. He'll only be in jail for 180 days despite being convicted of felony rape.

 

[utep2step]

Un...f.'en....believable.

But this is Waco and the world and gravity move differently out there.

Gotta love Baylor Pres. Ken Starr. Wanted to throw the book at a former president for a blow job, but will not defend a girl who gets assaulted.

Art Slime Ball Briles lasting legacy as per Texas Monthly. And since most lazy ass sports writers love this guy and think he's some type of "upstanding Christian"......my fanny. He's a liar, cheater and a blemish on Texas college football. I hope Coach Petersen smokes him out for the filth that he is.

"Mike Orakpo, LB – Orakpo was recruited to Baylor after being expelled from Colorado State University following an arrest for a “savage beating” that injured four people, two of them seriously, and led to a drug probe when police found evidence of drugs and anabolic steroid at his residence. According to a 90-page police report, a search of Orakpo’s and another expelled CSU’s residence yielded foil packages marked as anabolic steroids, as well as hypodermic needles, nine unmarked vials, eight of them refrigerated, and three used syringes. Possession of anabolic steroids is a felony in Colorado (but apparently not in Waco). With full knowledge of Orakpo's issues, Briles welcomed him to Baylor.

Tevin Elliot, DE - Baylor player recruited by Briles who was sentenced to twenty years in prison and a $10,000 fine after being convicted in January 2014 of raping and sexually assaulting four Baylor women, including a freshman girl twice at a party at a Waco apartment complex. Prosecutor LaBorde called Elliott a violent serial rapist who can’t admit he did anything wrong because he doesn’t think he did anything wrong. Briles called Elliott a sweet young man who was a good football player and deserved a second chance.

According to an arrest warrant affidavit, one of the victims, who was a freshman student at Baylor University, told officers she went to the party on April 15 at the Aspen Heights apartments at 3344 South 3rd St. and while there, met Elliott. At some point, Elliott asked her to go outside with him and although she said she didn't want to go, she told officers he was persistent, the affidavit said. As they went outside, the affidavit said, Elliott "picked up the victim and took her to the pool area and volleyball court area where she was sexually assaulted twice" telling Elliott on several occasions "she did not want this." The victim later returned to the party and told an unidentified witness about the attack. That person took her to Hillcrest Baptist Medical Center, the affidavit said, and police were called a short time later.

Josh Gordon, WR – arrested by police after being found stoned and asleep in the Taco Bell drive-thru at 3:30 am on Wed night prior to game with Tech. Briles played Gordon against Tech (but held him out of warm ups and Baylor's first drive as punishment) and said he was sticking by him because he was his kind of player. Gordon eventually left the Baylor program because of his third arrest for drugs in Waco, transferred to Utah where he never played because of failing another drug test and ended up at San Diego State. However, Baylor claims Gordon as one of the players it has put in the NFL. Gordon was suspended from the Cleveland Browns for a year for failing yet another drug test.

Daryl Stonum, WR – kicked out of Michigan following his third run-in with the law in three years at Michigan. When dismissed, Stonum was just coming off a season-long suspension in response to his second DUI arrest. Briles welcomed Stonum to Baylor's progam and campus.

Lache Seastrunk, RB – Recruited to Baylor under questionable circumstances after initially signing with Oregon after street-agent Willie Lyles was found to have accepted a $25K payment for delivering the recruit and leaving Oregon under investigation by a toothless NCAA.

Shawn Oakman, DE – Recruited to Baylor after kicked out of Penn State’s football program (and they put up with a lot at PSU) for theft.

Sam Ukwuachu, DE – Recruited to Baylor after being kicked out of Boise State following an arrest and an unspecified violation of team rules. Ukwuachu started in 12 games for Boise State as a freshman and was named a freshman All-American; however, he is no longer welcome at Boise State. Briles welcomed Ukwuachu to Baylor's football program and campus.

Ahmad Dixon, DB – Dixon was represented by a street agent during his recruitment and surprisingly decommitted from Texas to sign with Baylor, the first 4-star player to sign with Baylor during their streak of winless seasons. Dixon was arrested for criminal assault last last September during the season. According to the Waco Police Department, the 21-year-old male victim arrived at an apartment where Dixon and his friends were playing video games on the night of Sept. 16. Dixon became angry and began to assault the victim, punching him numerous times in his face and head causing pain and injury and a possible concussion. The victim waited until the next day to report the assault after Dixon made threats to the victim and victim‘s family . Waco police arrested Dixon who was subsequently bonded out of McLennan County Jail. Briles continued to play Dixon during every game that season because he was not actually incarcerated at the time of the games.

Antareis Bryan - Dallas police have arrested a Baylor football player. Antareis Bryan, a Dallas native, has been charged with aggravated robbery. He was booked into the Dallas County jail early Saturday morning on a $25,000 bond. Bryan is a starter who started every game for the Bears during 2009 and 2010.

Willie Andrews, DB - A Baylor football player was arrested and charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute and operating an unregistered motor vehicle. Andrews was seen driving a black Ford Crown Victoria when police received a call that there was possible drug activity in the area. Police found $6,800 in cash and a 1/2 pound of marijuana in Andrews' unregistered car.Subsequently, Andrews was arrested at his home and charged with assault with a dangerous weapon and unlawful possession of a firearm when police responded to a call that Andrews allegedly pointed a handgun at his girlfriend's head during an argument. The handgun Andrews allegedly used was found near a dumpster at Andrews apartment complex. Andrews had previously been sentenced to 30 days in jail after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor gun charge. The gun was found in his car by Texas State Troopers during a traffic stop. At the time, Andrews was serving a two year probation.

Robbie Rhodes, WR – Rhodes was arrested on drug charges and evidence tampering in May 2014. Because Rhodes attempted to hide the drugs after being apprehended, he was also charged with tampering with physical evidence. Briles said the matter would be addressed internally and added that he expected Rhodes, who is a starter, to start every game next fall so long as he is not incarcerated at game time. However, after Briles presented evidence to the McLennan County prosecutor showing that Rhodes had once previously passed a drug test at a prior time in his life, the prosecutor said that he was dropping all charges including the evidence tampering charge due to the fact that Rhodes was too important to Waco and to Baylor’s football program. Rhodes was a four-star member of BU’s 2013 recruiting class, rated as the No. 8 wide receiver in the country and the No. 8 player in the talent-rich state of Texas at any position. With the legal path now cleared, Rhodes is expected to be a significant contributor to Baylor’s high-octane offense in 2014.

http://www.cbssports...-on-drug-charge.

June 2014 Update: Unable to subsist for three weeks without narcotics, Rhodes fails yet another drug test only days after getting his May drug charges dropped and is released from the team, which raises even more questions. First, how many drug tests do you have to fail to get kicked out of Baylor? Hundreds? It should be noted that Rhodes never even passed out in the Taco Bell drive-thru, so why was he kicked off the team? But the biggest question is: knowing that when player-criminals from Michigan, Penn State, Oregon, Colorado State, Boise State, Huntsville, etc, are booted out of school they transfer to Baylor, where is it that player-criminals from Baylor transfer to? Guantanamo?

Cordell Dorsey, Safety - An Abilene Cooper football standout who has committed to play for Baylor University was arrested Wednesday for alleged aggravated sexual assault of a child. In addition to his arrest, 18-year-old Cordell Dashun Dorsey has been suspended from Cooper’s football team “indefinitely,” Abilene ISD Superintendent Heath Burns said in a written statement. Cordell Dorsey has a verbal commitment to Baylor University and was recruited by Baylor Head Coach Art Briles.

Also Briles turned to a known pedophile that owns a Baylor sports shop in Stephenville who happened to be J. Stidhams handler. He was fired from high school coaching because he kept having sex with high school girls. This man was on Art Briles' staff at Stephenville and J. Stidham lived with him @ the time of his recruitment to Baylor."

Art Briles is a football legend in Texas. He is beloved by high school coaches because he is one of them. The job hes done at Baylor is the second greatest building job in the history of college football second only to bill snyder at k-state. While this is a terrible case and he used terrible judgement and deserves the criticism hes getting, it wont stick. Unless he gets hit with serious ncaa violations nothing will tarnish his legacy.

Briles' legacy has been and will likely be further tarnished by this case. He allowed a now convicted rapist to graduate with his scholarship. In fact, they were planning on him playing even after he was charged with rape. The perp was treated better than the victim.

And to say that the NCAA sets the bar for what is right is akin to Baylor deferring to the courts to decide this case. A great school and coach have their own standards -- they don't wait for courts and/or the NCAA to determine what's right, which for one, takes way too long.

Wait a minute, are you comparing him to Bear Bryant and Darrell Royal? High school, yeah, he had a ton of success, no argument there.

By building jobs i mean building a winning program at a school that had no buisness having a winning program. Baylor went through a ten year stretch where they won a total of five conference games. There was alot of growing momentum to kick baylor out of the big 12. Their facilities were a joke and they were a non factor in Texas. The fact theyve won back to back big 12 titles and had a heisman winner is nothing short of extraordinary.

People forget he saved Houston's program. When he got there they were hemoraging money and on the way to dropping the program. He brought them back made them a consistent winner and now they are on the verge of getting into the big 12 thanks to Briles resurrection job.

I would never compare anyone to the bear. He's an icon and a legend, half the people in bama still dress like him on gameday and he's been dead for 35 years.

Darrell Royal was a pos who makes briles look like an angel. He was a racist and the king of corruption. Read meat off the hoof if you want more info of the pos darrell royal.

You're out of your mind if you think Royal is a POS compared to Briles.

No argument that Briles rebuilt Houston and helped Baylor. But, his blueprint for success had ties with the legion of darkness and now his legacy on how he made his accomplishments is now the proverbial cat out the bag. Chancellor Starr wanted to make Baylor a force to be dealt with, both in Texas politics and in revenue D1 sports and it is obvious as hell he turned a blind eye towards Briles and now he has to clean up the mess. Going around acting high and mighty just prior to facing the judge didn't help the cause either. Sexual assault is a very big deal because most colleges for decades were doing nothing.....nothing, when a young woman got raped. That's another reason this is a big deal. The timing that this happened for Briles is divine providence if you ask me. Same goes for Florida State and the correctional facility they have going on over there. I can't believe loser Winston is wearing a NFL jersey when he should be wearing jailhouse orange (and I'm a Bucs Fan). Sweet jeezus man, don't you see the writing on the wall?! Men like Briles and Starr were so blinded that they forgot that this is a young girls life that is being dealt with. If Briles wasn't told earlier, he should have said, "thanks, but no thanks!" the minute he found out. But that's the problem, Briles doesn't work that way and now he can either deny, deny, deny, or he can come clean. Obviously he chose the deny route.

If this was Kulger, everyone knows that Stull would face pressure to fire him immediately.

Yesterday the Boise chancellor admited the player was kick off the team before his domestic incident with his former grlfriend. There is no way Peterson warned Briles about his violent past, infact he told him it would be better if he played closer to home. Im not saying Briles is an angel. This situation is a tragedy that happens far to often on college campuses. What is maddening do me is the hypocritical moral indignation coming out of Austin and College Station. Both of those programs have a lengthy history of arrests and sexual assault cases that were swept under the rug. This has to do with fact that Baylor and TCU have upset the hierarchical order of football programs in Texas. The little guys can now wax the floor with the supposed big guys and they cant take it. Texas Monthly is a good publication and i read it myself. However Texas Monthly is a UT slanted publication always has been always will be.

Strong kicked two top players off his team last year the minute allegations of improprieties with a woman surfaced. He didn't stall like Briles did. You are giving Briles a huge pass by arguing that 1) Peterson didn't warn him and 2) it's all a UT conspiracy.
