Former Baylor head coach Dave Bliss, who received a ten-year ban from the NCAA in 2005, has been hired by Calvary Chapel Christian High School (Nev.) to be its basketball coach and athletic director.
Bliss resigned form Baylor in 2003 after internal and NCAA investigations into the murder of his former player, Patrick Dennehy, who was killed by teammate Carlton Dotson. Dennehy's girlfriend told officials that Bliss paid part of Dennehy's and Dotson's tuitions, a flagrant NCAA violation. Bliss was also allegedly aware of widespread drug use among his players and did not report failed drug tests to authorities.
