The newspaper article pretty much outlines the story. My opinion: It is an example of the century-old story of wanting too much to win college football games. There are a lot of press reports about this scandal. Google them if you are interested. Bottom line is that Baylor's president, Ken Starr (yes, the Ken Starr of Clinton impeachment fame), was demoted and ultimately resigned as a result. The football coach was fired. The athletic director resigned.
Baylor recently hired Linda Livingstone, dean of the George Washington University School of Business, as Baylor's new president, beginning June 1. Dr. Livingstone has long ties with the Baptist church and, interestingly, is being hired away from a first-rate university that does not have a football team.
