Anyone know what the bad news is for the UT Athletic dept.?

  • For every legitimate story that gets broken by the internet; there is a bogus rumor about Les Miles resigning.

  • The Barnes stuff is nothing new, he had an affair with a female staffer. Happens at every university in America, not sure there are many coaches having affairs with their athletes and lying about it.

  • So much sturm und drang, so little information ... this place is getting toxic.

    MY GOD!!! What if Pot is involved!!!

    Wrong campus. We want it back, lol. For purely selfish reasons I hope it only deals with Brownstain and y'all can move on from this. Best of luck, oh yeah it's the NCAA.

  • We will see what happens. If its for the good of Texas, then let the damn hammer fall where it may! Please take Dodds, Mack, and Barnes with you so we can finally move on from this misery!

  • It's nothing involving the NCAA, which is the biggest thing to worry about.

    Any type of sexual scandal or favoritism within the athletic department is just temporary embarrassment, if that. And those type of scandals happen in every industry these days, so it's not even that big.

    At worst, some administrators resign, perhaps some out of court settlements. It's not like UT can't get very qualified replacements for administrative positions.

  • "temporary" embarrassment. I wouldn't describe wrecking marriages, adultery, relationships, involving children, lack of integrity, and perfidious, in a such callous description.

  • Why does Bev Kearney have such animosity towards Texas and who are her advisers/lawyers? Having a relationship with one of your own players is reprehensible. I would think she would want to part gracefully rather than making herself more of a parish to a fanbase that, in my eyes, supported her through a lot. Sounds like she has a serious maturity issue and it's hard for me not to send bad thoughts her way ... tattle tail bitch.

    Right or wrong, Cleve Bryant's situation was handled completely different & he was given a job with Jim Bob Moffett once he left Texas...Kearney's situation was made public, fired, and UT let the world know she committed possible NCAA violations

    Not saying Kearney is right in this situation, not even close...but I'm trying to figure out who is right in this entire mess...the number of people that have made this situation worse is astounding

    ..................the more she reveals at some point the UT admistation says uncle and gives her more money? At this point she is not employable by another university. What is the saying...........Bev a few years ago was the toast of Austin. She was on track to be the Eddie Reese of Woman's Track.

    Guys, there are rumors. We have heard them. If true, they would be crippling to several athletic department members. Time will tell if they are substantiated or if they are rumors.

    Nice! Way to fuel the fire.

    ....................lost in the situation with Bryant and Major is there are spouses and kids. That is a point to remember.............in addition some of the "hearsay" posts ripping coaches character needs to stop. (Especially by the alphabet boys) I am surprised the mods haven't deleted some of the stuff I've seen on this thread.

    Can't be happening too often these days. That comb over is about at its limit.

    Best post of the threat.......lol. Combover limits.....lol.

    Ok, everybody should have known she was gonna come back swinging. She left angry and felt like she was treated wrong. Is her situation different? I dont know. That said, texas would have done well to pay her to go away, especially if they know they have other skeletons in the closet. Nothing stays private forever and now you guys have to deal with a womans skorn.

    I have heard that she lied about it and thats why she was treated differently. I have also heard that she is going to say she told somebody about it. Man, the offseason never fails to produce something..

    There is nothing more dangerous in this world than a man with nothing to lose.

    My hope is Mack is banging Plonsky and both are fired tonight

    Does anyone here actually love The University enough to bang Plonsky to get her fired?

    There ARE limits....

    I agree with you. This stuff is spreading like a wild fire. Too many different stories and it is just creating he said she said crap. Just hope we get to the bottom if it and make the best decision for our University.

    It's not the worst thing in the world to start anew. You may think so at first, but it is very therapeutic to start climbing out of a major overhaul. Just wipe the slate clean and find some "Rock Star" coaches - soon you will be euphoric. Mack and Barnes will be distant memories.
