According to new tax filings, Baylor University paid more than $15 million to former head football coach Art Briles after firing him in 2016 for failing to address complaints of rape and sexual assault by students against members of his team. According to a spokeswoman for Baylor, a private Baptist university in Waco, Texas, the money was severance pay and part of a legal settlement. The spokeswoman then added that the payment came from institutional reserves. The U.S. Department of Education is currently investigating the school’s response to the complaints of sexual assault by football players.
