Sources: Baylor Regents Fire Kenneth Starr

[El Supremo]

The Baylor board of regents on Tuesday fired six-year school president and chancellor Ken Starr, sources tell HornsDigest.com.

The three dozen members of the Baylor regents board are blaming Starr - not football coach Art Briles - for failed leadership during the ongoing scandal over how the school handled reports of rape and assault made against five BU football players - two of whom (Tevin Elliott and Sam Ukwuachu) were convicted of raping Baylor co-eds, sources close to the situation told HornsDigest.com.

Reagan Ramsower, Baylor's senior vice president of operations and chief financial officer, whose oversight includes Baylor's campus law enforcement, is a leading candidate to succeed Starr on an interim basis, the sources told HD.

Ramsower would serve as the school's interim president until a national search could be conducted, sources said.

1. Good news...

Although I'm willing to bet he's the scapegoat and the football coaches are to blame...no matter, could happen to a nicer fascist.

2. Don't let the doorknob hit ya where the good Lord split ya!

3. Personally I think any number of things should

Come into contact with Starr's backside. Boots, belts, paddles all sorts of things. He's been a reprehensible human being for years.

4. I think a Special Prosecutor needs to be appointed....

....with the power and resources available to get to the bottom of this mess.

5. No love for Ken Starr, but this appears to be a "solution" designed to get the stories out of the

paper as quickly as possible, not to actually fix the problem.

[joeybee12]

6. Oh yeah....

I'm sure those in the football program are equally responsible, if not more...but hey, let's not damage the cash cow.

[ProfessorGAC]

7. Particularly Since. . .

. . .the person in charge of law enforcement is expected to ascend to the top spot. Rape allegations that went uninvestigated, but the campus head of law enforcement is now going to be in charge? Huh?

8. The only justice to be served at Baylor is likely to be of the "poetic" kind.

Blame Starr, blame the Regents, blame the coaches, blame the parents, blame everyone.

11. You are a charm. A defender of Notre Dame's pedophiles criticizing...

another school, well known for being sexually repressive, for sexual assaults.

How about this pervert? >>

12. The first time you make sense I'll quit DU

I'm going to be here for a long, long time.

[El Supremo]

13. I put in some commas.

Does that make more sense for you?

What I'm saying is that a school that has celibate priests is just as sick as a school that, until recently, did not allow dancing.

One should not say anything about the other.
