Video: Kirk Herbstreit burns Baylor on SportsCenter for being ‘disrespected’
Published:
It’s been a slow news day in the Southeastern Conference, while Baylor has owned the headlines.
Earlier today, Baylor announced the firing of football coach Art Briles, the reassignment of the school president, and that the AD has been placed on probation — all stemming from a sexual assault scandal that seemingly continues to get worse by the minute.
ESPN television analyst Kirk Herbstreit joined SportsCenter this afternoon to discuss the situation and didn’t hold back, but even went as far to say that he’d “never been more disrespected in my entire career” during a recent trip to campus.
Herbstreit says he was “called out” by Baylor’s strength and conditioning coach for saying that TCU was a better team the previous year, which got a rise out of the players, who were “hooting and hollering” at him following the comments.

It’s going to be a long, long Memorial weekend for the university.
