Starting 4th year LB Raaquan Davis has left the program allegedly over style confrontations with new Coach. Could possibly be a Graduate transfer since he'll be going into his 5th year. Looks like he's wearing a graduation robe on his twitter page. Originally from Rockwall Heath
Of course he's not a problem child. If he voluntarily leaves Baylor and comes to us the kid could shoot a baby in a crib and we would defend him if he can plug the hole.
C'MMMMMMONNNNNN DOWWWNNNN RAQUAAN!!

And, as always, Baylor sucks.

Exactly. SMU no different.
And in other news.....Ukwuachu just got his conviction overturned because the prosecutor conveniently excluded texts that could show the sex was consensual. Everything isn't always what it seems:
Not entirely true. The JUDGE did not allow SOME of the text messages between victim and friend to be introduced. It was sent back for trial and the state is challenging the appellate decision. This is far from an exoneration and appears more of a technicality. For a second my faith in Baylor as a scumpit was shaken but after a little research it has been restored.
Two interesting items from the Tribune story: First, the Baylor dean admitted that she lied to the jury her first time on the stand. Second: The judge is allowing a Baylor lawyer to take part in discussions between the lawyers in chambers. Seems odd.
When McCraw took the stand, she misspoke, telling jurors different information that what she said in the judgeΓÇÖs chambers that she was going to say on the stand.
McCraw testified that the victim told her she kissed Ukwuachu and had oral sex with him before the night of the sexual assault, when the victim actually told McCraw that Ukwuachu tried to kiss her and tried to have oral sex with her before she rebuffed him.
She apologized to the jury and said she made a mistake. But LaBorde followed her into the courthouse rotunda and berated her for revictimizing the woman and caring more about trying to protect the university.

When momentum starts rolling downhill in recruiting-WATCH OUT.
This is a case that should be moved and decided by a judge. I can't find any reason to believe that a jury in that area could be seated which was fully impartial. It just gets worse and worse and yet...you know someone is going to sit in those deliberations saying "they tried their best...we should really forgive them and let them move on" and this is going to go soft. Sadly, I assume the best chance for any true punishment will come when the feds bring the title IX cases...unless Washington decides to go soft on that too.
Stallion, I am troubled by the term "misspoke"...it is a convenient parsing of the word "lie", without the social stigma and sometimes even the legal consequences. Baylor (and its administration) have demonstrated a pattern of obstruction and obfuscation during the entire course of this ongoing horror show.
The courtroom is your arena, and words are the currency that you spend every day. Saying one thing to a judge, and another to a seated jury during testimony (for whatever reason...to protect a person or a university) is simply avoiding the truth. It seems the truth is something Baylor has chosen to avoid at all costs, even at the expense of a young woman's life...again.
I mentioned this before, and I will reiterate it...I could not (and would not) do your job under any circumstance. There are too many cliffs that I would be tempted to jump off of, and too many opportunities to cloud otherwise clear waters. If I were in legal trouble, I would hurry to have someone who could represent my interests. I am certain you have the skill to serve your client to the fullest extent, and I would want someone like you seated at the table next to me.
But the careful shading of words in this case provides too much cover for the wolves among the sheep...or maybe I have just 'misspoke'.
