Interesting take in Mandel’s Mailbag:
But it’s also telling that most of the recent college football coaches who got fired amidst “scandals” were for far more serious reasons than violating NCAA bylaws. See: Baylor’s Art Briles (sexual assaults by players), Illinois’ Tim Beckman (pressuring guys to play with injuries), Maryland’s D.J. Durkin (a player’s death and alleged mistreatment of players) and Kansas’ Les Miles (alleged sexual harassment of student workers). One exception would be Tennessee’s January ouster of Jeremy Pruitt.
