EDITORIAL ROUNDUP - BAYLOR SCANDAL
Here is a sampling of Texas editorial opinion on the Baylor scandal:
Houston Chronicle, Aug. 18:
Baylor University basketball player Patrick Dennehy is dead, another
player, Carlton Dotson, is jailed on suspicion of his murder, and coaches
have been accused of brushing off Dennehy's concerns over threats against
his life.
The NCAA is investigating whether rules against payments to players were
broken. Meanwhile, practically the entire men's basketball squad is
scattering to other colleges. Now, audio tapes indicate recently resigned
head coach Dave Bliss tried to get players not only to aid and abet a cover
up, but to besmirch the reputation of the dead player by contributing to
innuendo that he was a drug dealer.
