Art Briles out at Baylor, Ken Starr demoted

Baylor has fired -- technically, "suspended with intent to terminate" -- head coach Art Briles in the wake of an independent report on sexual assault complaints involving several football players. In a statement, Baylor also announced that the board of regents has demoted Ken Starr from his position as president; he will apparently be allowed to remain on board as a law professor and will continue serving as chancellor. Additionally, Baylor will re-investigate all sexual assault claims filed by Baylor students over the last three academic years and aggressively pursue the creation of a dedicated victim-advocacy service.
