Art Briles can rap? Who knew? (Michael Ainsworth/The Dallas Morning News)
Art Briles is an easy going guy, plain and simple. He commands the respect of his staff and players while being one of the guys at the same time.
During Big 12 media days today, Ahmad Dixon said Briles is so laid back that he?ll occasionally rap during practices. When I asked Briles about his closet rapping career, he answered with a lyric from the artist Drake.
?I can throw,? he said of his skills. ?I don?t know about [throwing] down, but I can throw every once in a while with the right rhythm and the right attitude in the right environment.?
?I don?t want to disrespect any artists, but we all did our time and started at different spots and now we?re here.?
He followed up his answer with a hearty chuckle. The best part ? no one knew what he had just said. In Drake?s song, ?Started From the Bottom? there is a line that says, ?started from the bottom now we?re here.?
He went on to say that, ?There are songs that you can use correctly for inspiration. I?ve been a music guy all of my life. I?ve always been inspired by music and lyrics.?
In my opinion, this only enhances the fact that Briles is the coolest coach in the conference. And it isn?t even close.
