OT: Surprise! Art Briles is feeling heat for cheating at a Texas high school!

Remember that his football career was revived by a pious high school in Texas last year, after being (reluctantly) run out of Baylor.  So apparently, he's brought in some transfers with suspect GPA's and transfer credentials, and the local school board is taking a look.

The link is to 24/7 sports, and the story is authored by 12UP, whatever that it is.  It came across a news aggregator that I caught, so its veracity is unverified so far as I know.

Thought it was interesting.  He wasn't involved with cheating, per se, at Baylor, but I don't think this can be viewed as a surprise.  The man lead an institutional rape cover-up for years - he is first class scum.  Not sure why anyone would put him in charge of adolescent sports ever again...

I mean,  after UNC basically told the NCAA to go pound sand after being found guilty of institutional cheating at academics themselves, I'm not surprised that a turd like Briles would skirt a few eligibility rules.
