Report: Baylor fires football staffer for sending inappropriate text messages

Baylor has fired associate director for football operations DeMarkco Butler for sending inappropriate text messages, according to a report from Waco television station KWTX.

KWTX reported that Butler, who was hired by Baylor last month, sent the text messages to a teenager. A school official told KWTX that the person receiving the text messages was an adult under Texas statute.

Butler is the second football staffer hired by head coach Matt Rhule that has been dismissed by the school since Rhule was hired in December. Strength coach Brandon Washington was fired on Feb. 6 after he was arrested as part of a prostitution sting in Waco.
