There is a LOT more to dislike about Baylor than Briles.
I remember discussing on this board the murder of Patrick Dennehy by his teammate, Carlton Dotson who dumped him in a gravel pit. His body was scavenged by animals as his head was not found with the torso.
Not to be outdone, Dave Bliss, had paid Dennehy's tuition, and during investigation claimed that the tuition was actually paid for by Dennehy being a drug dealer.
Quote:
Bliss had told players to lie to investigators by indicating that Dennehy had paid for his tuition by dealing drugs. These conversations were taped on microcassette by assistant coach Abar Rouse from July 30 to August 1. On the tapes, Bliss was heard instructing players to fabricate the story of Dennehy being a drug dealer to Baylor investigators and also said that talking to the McLennan County Sheriff's Department would give him the opportunity to "practice" his story. The tapes also showed that Bliss and his staff knew that Dennehy had been threatened by two of their teammates when they publicly denied such knowledge. Rouse taped the conversations after Bliss threatened to fire him if he did not go along with the scheme.
