Baylor Suspends OC Kendal Briles, WR Coach Tate Wallis for Lamar Game Due to Recruiting Violations

So, this happened a few minutes ago:

Two things arising from this news:

  1. My guess is that this suspension relates to allegations that Baylor coaches visited J.W. Ketchum, who ended up signing with the Bears, during an evaluation period in 2014. The fact that both stories -- today's suspensions and those allegations -- were both "broken" by SI's Thayer Evans lends some credence to that idea.*
  2. Who calls the plays tomorrow? Make no mistake about news like this; it's important to Baylor's offense to have consistency and predictability, particularly when it comes to who calls the plays and where they call them from.
