Former Baylor coach Art Briles will be the next offensive coordinator at Grambling State, a school spokesperson confirmed to Chris Vannini of The Athletic.
It will be Briles' first job in collegiate athletics since he was fired by Baylor in 2016 after an independent investigation found he failed to report accusations of sexual violence and intimate partner violence by football players. Investigators from the Pepper Hamilton law firm said there was a "fundamental failure" by the university in its handling of the allegations.
In August 2021, the NCAA announced light penalties for recruiting violations but said it "could not conclude that Baylor violated NCAA rules when it failed to report allegations of and address sexual and interpersonal violence committed on its campus.
