Briles, the father-in-law of Oklahoma offensive coordinator Jeff Lebby, was on the field in an Oklahoma shirt after the 28-11 victory. When asked about Briles’ presence after the game, coach Brent Venables said it was “being dealt with” while Castiglione issued a postgame statement.

“I was just as disappointed as many of our fans who I learned of the postgame situation tonight,” Castiglione said. “It shouldn’t have happened and it was my expectation it never would, based on boundaries we previously set. I’ve addressed it with the appropriate staff.”

It’s unclear the extent of what Lebby knew about what was happening in his then-program. But a lawsuit from a former Baylor student alleges Lebby had direct knowledge that a player had assaulted her, and that he took no action and made no reports about it. The player allegedly assaulted the woman twice more in the following weeks.

The Oklahoman reports that after Briles was fired for his role in the Baylor scandal, Lebby continued to defend his father-in-law, and made t-shirts to support him.

For a program of OU’s caliber, it should be extremely easy to hire men who haven’t faced allegations of ignoring and trivializing domestic violence that happened right under their noses. There are plenty of them. It’s very easy not to hire anyone intimately associated with the most disgusting, tragic scandal to ever occur in our conference.
