The lashing out on social media from current and former players under Briles was unexpected to say the least.
From Wes Welker, who said that no one had more integrity than Briles, despite the reported allegations:
Wes Welker just now on @FS1 w @ColinCowherd on Art Briles: "There's nobody with more integrity.. I'm shocked by this."

Regardless of if Briles was alone in the way he reportedly handled things or not, someone had to fall on the sword, and the former Baylor head coach ended up being that man.
