August 21, 201511 yr A kid that was at Boise was kicked off of the team for beating up his girlfriend. He was never convicted. Known to have anger issues. Baylor takes him in. Before he plays for them he sexually assaults a freshman soccer player. Kicked off of the team. Baylor coach Briles and school president are catching a lot of heat for bringing in such a player. Briles told the media today that he was unaware of the issues surrounding the player's transfer so....his hands are clean. However, Coach Peterson issues a statement today that said Peterson called Briles to tell him exactly what the issues were. Briles is not going to come out looking good on this one.
August 21, 201511 yr Why lie? If you're going to take a chance on that kind of guy, at least try to spin it like you were trying to give him another chance. This looks WAY worse.

August 21, 201511 yr Not only did Briles say he wasn't aware, he said he called Peterson before taking the kid on and he never told him about the issues. Someone here is lying. My bet is it's Briles.

August 21, 201511 yr Peterson says it was Peterson who made the first call. Maybe it was. Bottom line Briles is claiming the call took place and he wasn't made aware. Peterson said he was.
August 21, 201511 yr Isn't he still on the team? I thought the DC recently said that he may be on the field this fall.
August 22, 201511 yr Author Maybe Peterson wasn't telling the complete truth. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/ncaaf-dr-saturday/art-briles-releases-statement--baylor-shares-sam-ukwuachu-transfer-document-001627927.html

August 23, 201511 yr "Has this student been suspended or disqualified from your institution for disciplinary reasons?"... Box is checked no. While that is interesting that I was checked that way, the accusations here are over the phone call as both coaches have said that took place despite the differing stories.
