Art Briles resigns OC post at Grambling State after less than a week

And for once, logic and common sense have prevailed.

Art Briles is out at Grambling State as its offensive coordinator less than a week after being hired.

In a statement Monday, Briles told Grambling: “Thank you for giving me the opportunity to be part of your coaching staff at Grambling State University. Unfortunately, I feel that my continued presence will be a distraction to you and your team, which is the last thing that I want. I have the utmost respect (for) the university, and your players.”
