The end of Baylor’s Art Briles

Posted on May 26, 2016 by Luke Ford

ESPN: “Art Briles has talked about his “nonjudgmental” program that wanted “mavericks” and prided itself on giving second chances. That attitude, mixed with indifference toward victims, did him in.”

How do you think he turned around Baylor’s football program? By scraping the bottom of the barrel of black thugs harder than other coaches (Steve Sailer).

Like most successful football coaches, Art Briles brought in black kids who have no business being on a college campus.

If you are going to have a lot of low-IQ, low impulse-control blacks on your campus, you are going to have to put up with a lot of rapes. But hey, it’s all worth it to have a great football team right?

Steve Sailer writes:

As I’ve been pointing out for years, a standard way an ambitious coach raises the success level of a college football or basketball program is to dare to scrape the bottom of the behavioral barrel harder than rival coaches when recruiting giant young males. A statistically likely side effect is that more coeds on your campus get raped, but boosters can pay the young ladies off.

And since most of the football and basketball player rapists are black and their victims tend to be white, nobody has really wanted to talk about what’s going on terribly explicitly. Black-on-white rape is a stereotype, right? So therefore it’s nothing to worry about.

It’s much more socially acceptable to make up stories about Haven Monahan and the Duke lacrosse team menace. Haven Monahan shattered stereotypes, just like he shattered glass, so we should notice him, not all the black basketball and football player rapists who actually exist.

Finally, however, a college has fired its highly successful $6 million per year football coach over this.

Comments at Steve Sailer:

* Even Rush Limbaugh went there and mentioned race and black when talking about this, even though the official media articles don’t mention race.

You talk about how we outsource our patriotism to Israel, as something that needs to stop, and I agree. We also need to quit outsourcing our tribal energy to ball games played by 17-23 year old dindus.

* As someone really funny and insightful on Twitter put it – “the better the football program the less chance I’d send my daughter there”

* The UVa lacrosse coach is out. It could be because of his recent poor record or that one of his players murdered a UVa student. It probably is a combination. Having a lax player convicted of murder hurts recruiting and thus contributes to poor performance.

* Remember, it takes two to rape: one to rape and one to use poor judgement in being alone with the rapist.

ESPN: “But after a damning report from law firm Pepper Hamilton to the Board of Regents on May 13 that outlined a litany of sexual assaults and violent incidents involving players, Baylor fired the 60-year-old Briles on Thursday.”

“Sam Ukwuachu, a transfer from Boise State, was convicted of sexually assaulting a Baylor soccer player.”

ESPN: August 20, 2015: Former Baylor defensive end Sam Ukwuachu is found guilty of sexually assaulting a former Baylor soccer player. He’s sentenced to 180 days in county jail and 10 years’ probation. He served more than two months before being released on Oct. 29 on a $100,000 appeal bond.

Aug. 21, 2015: Art Briles and Chris Petersen both issue statements regarding their conversations with each other during Ukwuachu’s transfer from Boise State to Baylor. During sentencing, an ex-girlfriend of Ukwuachu testifies that Ukwuachu assaulted her while he was at Boise State. Briles and Petersen both insist they were unaware of that allegation. Records obtained by ESPN indicate Boise State had serious concerns about Ukwuachu’s mental health at the time he was dismissed.

“Shawn Oakman, a top Baylor defensive player, was arrested in April on a sexual assault charge. A Waco police report later surfaces that he’d been accused of assaulting an ex-girlfriend in 2013.”

March 30: Jasmin Hernandez, a former Baylor student who reported she had been raped by Elliott, files a Title IX lawsuit against the school and officials including Briles. She claims the school knew Elliott had a history of assaults, failed to protect her and other women and ignored her when she sought help.

April 13: Oakman is arrested on a sexual assault charge. A Baylor graduate student alleges Oakman forced her to have sex with him after they met at a Waco nightclub on April 3. Oakman told police the sex was consensual.

April 14: Outside The Line reports that Baylor did not investigate sexual assault allegations made against Armstead and teammate Myke Chatman for more than two years. A Waco police report indicates it had informed Baylor officials of the off-campus incident when it occurred in April 2013. BU didn’t begin looking into the allegations until September 2015.

How Siddhartha Mukherjee gets The Gene wrong

Posted on May 26, 2016 by Luke Ford

Stuart Ritchie writes: But although Mukherjee is awed by the intelligence of geneticists, he doesn’t think much of scientific attempts to measure intelligence. Indeed, in one chapter he launches an all-out attack on IQ tests. Why study the genetics of general intelligence, Mukherjee asks, when new evidence from the psychologist Howard Gardner shows that there are actually multiple intelligences? This will come as a surprise to Gardner, who has never provided any data for his now-debunked ‘multiple intelligences’ theory. In fact, general intelligence is probably the most well-replicated phenomenon in all of psychological science. But how would Mukherjee know this? His reading of the research on intelligence is cursory and out of date; he fails to cite a single scientific paper on the genetics of intelligence more recent than 2003, with most sources coming from the 1970s or earlier.

This lapse in scholarship is made all the more frustrating in the next two chapters, where Mukherjee discusses gender, sexuality and personality, happily concluding that they are all strongly genetically influenced. Perhaps he thinks IQ is one controversy too far. But a glance at the scientific literature shows that the research on the genetics of intelligence is vastly more developed than on, say, sexuality. No attempt is made to cover intriguing (and solid) findings such as the increasing genetic effect on IQ with age, or the first glimmers in large gene-hunting studies of DNA variants linked to more efficient brains.

Another underdeveloped topic examined in The Gene is ‘epigenetics’, the notion that the environment leaves marks on the genome that switch genes on and off, with concomitant health effects. Might these marks be passed on to our children, and even grandchildren? Mukherjee’s recent New Yorker essay on this topic angered scientists because it signally failed to acknowledge other genetic ‘switches’ that are far better known. That essay’s magpie-like focus on the shiny new ideas of epigenetics is not found in the book, but Mukherjee still leans too heavily on studies of the effects of the Dutch famine of 1944 — which do not rule out non-epigenetic explanations — and dismissively relegates alternative views (which are far more in line with the limited evidence on epigenetics) to a footnote.

What of the future? In The Gene’s final section, we get a little on embryo selection, a little on gene editing and a little on stem cells, all of which may soon be used to ‘engineer’ healthier, smarter or otherwise altered humans. The book’s coverage of these techniques — on which the importance of a full, frank debate cannot be overstated — is accompanied by a vague ‘manifesto’ on some of their pitfalls and caveats, but the whole treatment feels rushed, as if Mukherjee didn’t wish to scare the horses by getting too far into the ‘newgenic’ implications.

This disappointing failure to grasp the genetic nettle can be illustrated by a quotation from Mukherjee’s section on IQ tests. ‘Is g [general intelligence] heritable? In a certain sense, yes.’ Alas, the ‘certain sense’ here really means ‘after much qualification’; in fact, after so much qualification that you’ll go away thinking the answer is actually ‘no’, and not worrying too much about it. So, in the same spirit: is The Gene worth reading? In a certain sense, yes.

Explaining Ben Shapiro’s Messy, Ethnic-Slur-Laden Breakup With Breitbart

Posted on May 26, 2016 by Luke Ford

Jesse Singal writes for NYMag.com:

Ben Shapiro, the 32-year-old former editor-at-large of Breitbart News, doesn’t come across as the sort of conservative who would be cannibalized by his ideological fellow travelers for being too soft. The titles of his books and e-books, for example, suggest solidly right-wing beliefs: Porn Generation: How Social Liberalism Is Corrupting Our Future, Brainwashed: How Universities Indoctrinate America’s Youth, and The People vs. Barack Obama: The Criminal Case Against the Obama Administration, to name a few.

But these are strange times on the right, and since his resignation from Breitbart in March, Shapiro, currently editor-in-chief of Daily Wire, has increasingly found himself targeted by the so-called alt-right movement, a loose conglomeration of online personalities — many if not most of them anonymous — currently devoted to tweeting and posting their support for Donald Trump and attacking those who disagree, often in racist and anti-Semitic ways. They have been denigrating Shapiro as a “pussy,” a “cuck,” and — inevitably, given the nature of this movement — a “Jew” and a “kike.”

His former employer has gone after him too. Shortly after Shapiro resigned, Breitbart published — and then quickly pulled down — a bizarre article bylined with a pseudonym previously used by Shapiro’s father on Breitbart and headlined “Ben Shapiro Betrays Loyal Breitbart Readers in Pursuit of Fox News Contributorship” (Shapiro’s father, David Shapiro, stepped down as a contributor at the same time Shapiro did — Ben told Politico that his father had written under a pseudonym to shield himself from the death threats Ben receives). Then, last week, Breitbart published a piece by an alt-right Twitter personality known as “Pizza Party Ben” — yes, that was how his byline appeared on the site — that consisted mostly of a video mocking Shapiro for having complained about anti-Semitism, the alt-right, and Trump:

The nadir came a couple of weeks ago, though, when Shapiro’s wife gave birth to the couple’s second child. As the Daily Wire noted, Shapiro was hit with a wave of vicious anti-Semitic abuse, including multiple Holocaust references and requests that Shapiro and his family be sent to the ovens.

Jesse Singal only provides two points of view — those of Ben Shapiro and of himself.
