Baylor football fired coach Art Briles on Thursday amid the university"s sexual-assault scandal, but his impact on the athletic department and university remains unquestioned. Despite coaching only eight seasons, Briles has the second most wins and second highest winning percentage of coaches since 1950.
Briles" effect on Baylor University will exist on campus for years -- both the good and the bad. Here are six ways Art Briles changed Baylor football.
Reviving a sleeping giant
Baylor football had historically been a mediocre program at best. The Bears had really only seen sustained success under former head coach Grant Teaff. Art Briles came in and quickly turned things around.
In just his third season, the Bears reached bowl eligibility for the first time in 16 seasons. Just three years later, Baylor captured its first ever Big 12 title, the first of a back-to-back. Heading into the 2016 season, the Bears expected to be national title contenders once more. Briles helped turn Baylor into a true power program.
Heisman Trophy
It"s easy enough to say that Briles recruited a raw athlete named Robert Griffin III to Waco, but that does not quite do justice to how significant a part he played in creating what RGIII became. Briles created the perfect situation for Griffin to thrive.
Griffin was one of the most electric talents in college football history, but much of that came under Briles" tutelage. The Art Briles system allowed Griffin to show off his incalculable ability throughout his college career, and eventually let him put up the mind-boggling numbers that earned him a Heisman Trophy. The award transformed the university.
McLane Stadium
It has been called the "Palace on the Brazos," and it would not exist if not for Art Briles. The team had significant success early, but Briles had the foresight and plan that Baylor needed to upgrade its facilities to become a major national player.
The effect has been unquestionable. McLane Stadium is one of the most technologically-equipped stadiums in all of college football. It also stands on I-35 as a gargantuan advertisement for the team and university. Having a stadium of that caliber will be attractive when it comes to finding a new coach.
Inspired fanbase
Before Art Briles arrived at Baylor, the Bears struggled mightily to draw fans. The attendance was so poor at times that Baylor decided to put a tarp over an entire section of Floyd Casey Stadium. In fact, the Bears reached the listed attendance capacity of 50,000 seven times in its 63 years of existence.
The fans have come out in full force since the Bears started winning again. Briles has led the Bears to 50 wins over the last five seasons, and demand for tickets has reached an all-time high. McLane Stadium"s capacity was reduced to 45,000, but the Bears have reached at least 97 percent capacity in every game they have played at the venue.
National branding
Baylor has always been somewhat of a regional brand, with a fanbase contained within the state of Texas. However, the Heisman Trophy and subsequent success on the field by Briles" squad helped the Baylor brand reach new heights.
Even academically, application rates are exploding and standards continue to improve. Students do not necessarily attend just for the football team, but increased national branding helps draw students to the university. Baylor was a no-name team that could barely gain a foothold in Waco before Briles got to campus -- things have changed.
Program in turmoil
Briles accomplished many great feats for Baylor football, but ultimately leaves the program in a difficult position. Waco has never been an ideal location for a coach, but having a football team in this position makes it all the harder.
Baylor"s next coach will have the difficult duality of having to restore trust in the athletic program, while also trying to attract talent to Waco. As many have proven before, it is difficult enough to try and accomplish one of those tasks. It will take tremendous leadership from athletic director Ian McCaw and the next university president to find a willing candidate.
What would happen if The Walking Dead and the Star Wars Holiday Special joined forces to help raise money for kids around the world as part of Red Nose Day? This, apparently. Watch and laugh at The Walking Dead Red Nose Day Special.
For this years annual Red Nose Day, Walking Dead stars Andrew Lincoln, Norman Reedus, Steven Yeun, Melissa McBride, Josh McDermitt, Ross Marquand, David Morrissey, and Christian Serratos joined forces with special guest stars Jeff Goldblum, Dax Shepard, Yvette-Nicole Brown, and Chris Hardwick to present the spoof, which started in the minds of Lincoln and Reedus after a long day on set.
Dont you just wish you could do something lighter? Lincoln asks Reedus before the fun starts.
Something that would bring sweetness and light into the world, adds Reedus.
Unfortunately, after the spoof opening for the Red Nose Day Special which includes Shepard and Hardwick as Han Solo and a 16-minute drum solo from McBride, among other highlights both Lincoln and Reedus decide against creating such an event for real. We aint doing that, Reedus says to his costar.

Alice Through The Looking Glass - "Save The Hatter" clip
A boisterous turn from Helena Bonham Carter as the pugnacious Red Queen saves this Alice sequel from flatlining utterly. Using only the title and some characters from Lewis Carrolls own 1871 sequel in fact called Through the Looking Glass, and What Alice Found There this new movie is just machine-tooled CGI fantasy fare. We start in the real world, where Alice (Mia Wasikowska) is a daring sea captain who is threatened with betrayal by the corporate landlubbers who own her ship. So she escapes through a mirror in the proprietors mansion and finds herself slap bang in Wonderland again.
Tim Burton on Alice Through the Looking Glass video interview
Johnny Depps tiresome Mad Hatter is brought back for a starring role: Alice must reunite and reconcile him with his family. His hat-making dad is played by Rhys Ifans, and the Mad Hatters own name is sanitised, as his madness is the adorable craziness of creativity, as opposed to the mercury poisoning from fumes in the hat-making process, which in Carrolls day famously undermined the sanity of British milliners. Theres a bit of sub-Wicked origin myth-making for the relationship of the Red Queen and the White Queen (Anne Hathaway). Sacha Baron Cohen plays a new character called Time, with a guttural Werner Herzog accent. Id pay about 10/6 for this in todays money.

Zaytoven, Sonny Digital and Metro Boomin sat down with Andrew Nosnitsky and Red Bull Music Academy for a fascinating hour-plus interview about their influences, the importance of Gucci Mane, what trap music really means to them and a whole lot more. If youre at all interested in how these guys work, carve out a good chunk of time to watch the whole thing above. Its a must-watch for any rap nerd.
Throughout the discussion, the OG Zaytiggy talks about how important Gucci Mane was, not only as an artist but as a supporter of the young producer at a time when he was really flying by the seat of his pants.
Around the 1:11:50 mark, Zay breaks down just how supportive Guwop can be. Gucci is a guy that promoted me to the fullest. It dont matter where we go. We can go to the studio with Jay Z, he gon talk about me like Im the best producer in the world, and I didnt even have no songs at the time.I didnt have no bigrecords, remembers Zay.
Hed be like, You gotta get beats from Zay! Zaythe best! Timbaland could givehim the beats and hed be like, Nah Timbaland, we dont want your beats. We want to use Zay beats. Itd make me uncomfortable cuz Id be like, Well hold on Gucci, you aint gotta say it like that," he continues to laughter from the crowd.
I give a lot of credit to Gucci because he gave me the confidence to feel like okay, well I am the best producer, to him I am, and hes one of the hottest guysout. So it helped give me the confidence to be who I am, he concludes.

Bernie Sanders really wants another debate before the California primary on June 7. First, he wanted to debate Democratic primary opponent Hillary Clinton. Then, when she said thanks-but-no-thanks, he challenged presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump, saying the two should face off on live television.
Last night on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" Trump seemed to accept that challenge. And theprospect of an actual, real-life Trump-Sanders debate seemed possible, if only for a few hours.
But the Trump campaignpoured some cold water on the idea on Thursday,telling various reporters that it was more of a joke than anything. So who knows.
But with the prospect of that New Yorkiest of New York debates (in California) beginning to slip away, The Fix decided to give the people what they want and simulate an actual Trump-Sanders debate. While we may never know what such adebate would really look like, we can be sure it would have gotten a positively "yuge" television audience.
Donald Trump"s campaign now says the two candidates are unlikely to debate each other before the June 7 California primary. But what if they did? (Peter Stevenson/The Washington Post)
