Former Baylor coach Art Briles has said that he hopes to get back into coaching. And while he hasn’t been hired yet, Briles has already been consulting with the staff at Florida Atlantic, where his son is employed as the offensive coordinator.

“Obviously, he has ideas,” Kendal told the Orlando Sun-Sentinel. “He wants to know personnel and different guys and making sure we’re getting those guys in the right spots and getting them touches and all that stuff. He’s a football coach, that’s all he’s ever been. He’s definitely involved and we talk daily.”

Kendal told the Sun-Sentinel he’s sent offensive film to Art, while FAU head coach Lane Kiffin said he’s also spoken to Art a few times.

“Obviously he’s done unbelievable things on offense,” Kiffin said. “It’s his system that he started years and years ago. Every once in a while, I’ll text or call him and bounce something off of him.”

There’s no doubt that Art Briles is on the cutting edge offensively. And technically, he hasn’t been hired by FAU.

But this is sure to raise even more eyebrows than were raised when Kiffin hired Kendal Briles. For all his coaching acumen, Art Briles was still the head of a Baylor program that was totally reset after a sexual assault scandal that occurred under Briles’ watch.
