Former Baylor coach Art Briles defended his reputation to reporters on Tuesday and said he plans to coach again in 2017.
Briles paid a visit to Texans practice and spoke to the media there about a potential return to football.
Briles lost his job in wake of the widespread sexual assault scandal involving Baylor’s football program, including multiple players, and the university administration at large. He was the only coach fired in the fallout of the events, officially parting ways with the school in June.
“I’ve [coached] for 38 years, lived the right way 60 years of my life, never done anything illegal, immoral or unethical,” Briles said.
