Washington State quarterback Tyler Hilinski was found dead in his apartment Tuesday afternoon after committing suicide. He was 21-years-old.
The redshirt-sophomore quarterback was found dead at the Aspen Village Apartment complex Pullman after officers responded to a welfare check after not showing up to practice earlier in the day. A suicide note was found in the apartment.
Pullman Police detectives and the Whitman County Coroner's Office are conducting a thorough investigation to confirm the suspected cause and manner of death.
Hiliniski appeared in eight games and made one start for Washington State in 2017. In that start - the Holiday Bowl - Hilinski was 39-for-50 for 272 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception.
The Claremont, Calif. native arrived on campus in the spring of 2015 and was Luke Falk's backup for the 2016 and 2017 seasons. He was heavily favored to be named the starting quarterback for the 2018 season.

I'm in shock right now. Feeling real bad for his family, friends, and teammates.

Two redshirt Baylor football team freshmen are under investigation in connection with a sexual assault report involving members of the university’s equestrian team, according to KWTX in Texas.
The sexual assault reportedly happened the night of Nov. 11, following a Baylor loss to Texas Tech in Arlington. From the report:
Baylor’s online crime log says the incident was reported on Nov. 14 as “Alcohol-Minors Consuming/Sexual Assault,” and was referred to the school’s Judicial Affairs and Title IX offices, but two heavily redacted police reports obtained by KWTX say only that campus officers took a report of a sexual assault.
KWTX says that both the woman who filed the complaint, called Jane Doe 2, and the woman described as a victim, Jane Doe, are students, while “four to five sources familiar with the incident” say both women are part of the school’s equestrian team. The report also says that four students were interviewed as suspects and, according to the KWTX sources, at least two are football players.
What the fuck is wrong there? Are they unable to find players who know not to sexually assault women?
So, as part of the setup for Rodriguez's wrongful dismissal lawsuit, his lawyers have released the Book of RichRod to the record. It's mostly sane, but the parts that aren't, well...
One could give Rodriguez the benefit of the doubt and assume that “educate her and control her talk” is just a poor choice of words. But in the best possible light it’s still a warped, paranoid view of marriage. “Be careful what you say to your wife,” might be a reasonable thing to tell, like, someone working high up in the CIA. But a freaking college football assistant coach? Your job is not that important.
I’m still trying to figure out what “make sure they are loyal to the staff and the program” implies, as if rivals’ desires for playbooks or journalists’ thirst for inside information is so strong that it could break the sacred vows of marriage.
That's just...he has a very disturbed way of looking at marriage.
I want to make a joke about how this is what he showed UM to get hired there, but I can’t
Please get swallowed by a portal back to 1938 RichRod where you can still be an ineffective and out of date failure

He seems very paranoid about the potential effect coaches’ wives can have on a program. Also what I’m going to call the “insecure man’s definition of loyalty” where he can’t tell the difference between disagreement and disloyalty.

"ESPN obtained a police report from an incident in which two Baylor female students told authorities they were sexually assaulted at an apartment complex in Waco on Nov. 12."

That’s a pretty big emphasis on loyalty for an asshole that quit WVU and moved in the middle of the night, not even bothering to coach the BCS bowl game they made that year.
RichRod is a piece of shit and always has been. This mess shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone.

His parents joined Today this morning, and Hilinski’s father said medical examiners told him Tyler “had the brain of a 65-year-old, which is really hard to take.” “Did football kill Tyler? I don’t think so,” his mother told Sports Illustrated. “Did he get CTE from football? Probably. Was that the only thing that contributed to his death? I don’t know.”

I was just getting ready to post that. Getting harder and harder to ignore CTE and how it effects the health of athletes at all ages, not just professionals.
Even if it had nothing to do with him taking his own life (and that’s a big IF), he had the brain of a man 45 years older than his actual age. That isn’t nothing.

Unlike his older brother Riley, a Vikings offensive lineman who was 19 when he was arrested in Iowa City for leading police on a half-naked, 20-minute foot chase, the 22-year-old Brady was of legal age to drink. He was still arrested for a simple misdemeanor of public intoxication anyway, because he was dumb enough to think that the police would ever help a drunk person trying to get home safely instead of arresting them. What a galoot!
Accused of public intoxication, Brady Reiff, 22, a starting defensive tackle for the UI football team, approached a
parked UI police cruiser on Iowa Avenue at about 2 a.m. and attempted to open the vehicle’s passenger door, according to UI police.
When Reiff noticed there was a rider sitting in the passenger seat, police said he moved to the back door and attempted to open it.
When asked what he was doing, police said Reiff asked for a ride home. “He thought that was our job,” the police report states.
So, let's get this straight.
* Iowa player, who is of legal age, gets drunk.
* He does not attempt to drive drunk.
* Instead, he mistakes a cop car for a cab.
* The police, instead of helping him, arrest him for public intoxication.
* In response to a charge that shouldn't have happened, the Iowa coach is suspending him for one game.
Hey, we're nearing football o'clock again. Yaaaaaaay!
Anyway, here's some fun entitled "Jim Harbaugh is not a fan of eating chicken for the most Jim Harbaugh reason ever" via Golf Digestby way of BleacherReport (yeeeeeeesh).
How do you explain the Harbaugh Experience? Former Michigan (and current UCLA) quarterback Wilton Speight tells a story to sum it up nicely. Early in his Michigan tenure, Harbaugh pulled Speight aside and told him not to eat chicken, a protein that is considered fairly safe by nutritionists. When Speight asked why, Harbaugh said, "because it's a nervous bird."
"He thinks some type of sickness injected its way into the human population when people began eating white meats instead of beef and pork," Speight says. "And he believes it, 100 percent."

Okey-dokey Jim!
Given everything else going on, I take comfort in my football coach being bizarrely crazy instead of genuinely evil crazy.
Self-righteousness is incompatible with coalition building.
I guess one wonders whether-or-not UM will continue to put up with it if he fails to beat OSU and win post-New Year.
It's more if more recruiting classes end up like last year's which was underwhelming after two bonkers classes. 2019 is doing better. We'll beat OSU if the talent is there. We were literally an inch away in 2016 and any functional QB (or a dropped easy INT) away last year. I'm not worried long term.
This year, we should be really, really good... except at both tackles. Which is a pretty important spot to suck at in a year with an absurd amount of DL talent both nationally and in the Big Ten.

Jesus fuck.
Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
They are probably doing this to clear him "see put him on leave and then realized more people want us to succeed then care if a woman is beaten, so he's back."
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
For those of us who would like a little more context without having to click links:
Text messages I have obtained, an exclusive interview with the victim and other information I have learned shows Ohio State coach Urban Meyer knew in 2015 of domestic abuse allegations against a member of his coaching staff.
Courtney Smith, ex-wife of fired Ohio State assistant coach Zach Smith, provided text messages between her and the wives of Ohio State coaches – including Urban Meyer’s wife, Shelley – showing Meyer’s knowledge of the situation.
Meyer said last week during Big Ten Media Days that he had no knowledge of two alleged domestic violence incidents in 2015 with former assistant wide receivers coach Zach Smith that were investigated by the Powell (Ohio) Police Department.
Meyer said had he known, he would have fired Smith in 2015 – three years before he did last week after I reported the alleged domestic violence.
“All the (coaches) wives knew,” Courtney said. “They all did. Every single one.”
They are probably doing this to clear him "see put him on leave and then realized more people want us to succeed then care if a woman is beaten, so he's back."
This is more than I expected. I'm used to MSU's way of handling violence against women.
Self-righteousness is incompatible with coalition building.
Couple clauses were added to Meyer's latest extension mandating he report any sexual misconduct or intimate violence to OSU's Title IX office. Violating either is grounds for firing with cause, according to the contract.

And in follow-up, his autopsy showed that he was suffering from Stage 1 CTE:
He was 21 ,with the brain of a 65 year old.
