Please tell me we don't have recruits at this game.

I think only thing we have to "sell" right now is the fact recruits can get immediate playing time
I am sorry, but Baylor is located in Waco. There is little appeal for little schools in small town vs the big State schools. Baylor has to do it better and have more to offer. I am blown away by the lackadaisical response to the last 2 seasons. Dave, Staff, Mack all act like they don't care. If you are a top recruit why WOULD you choose Baylor and Waco over the other choices.

I was playing youth football on Saturdays during the Kevin Steele era, thank god. I know those around then keep saying it was even worse and more hopeless then, but I'm struggling to understand because I came into this year with optimism and it's seemed hopeless most of the year.

I would take it a step further and say that we don't even have to phrase this as a hypothetical. The top recruits aren't coming here as we speak. Our recruiting on the offensive side of the ball in this current class is particularly crappy

Great effort, but his helmet was out of bounds before he secured it.


I still could not see that on any replays here. However I have never seen it overruled before for that reason and probably never will again.
He bobbled the ball, his helmet bounced off the turf out of bounds and then he secured it. By rule, he's out of bounds.
you're creating a decision when the helmet was on the ground and the ball couldn't be seen. there has to be "indisputable evidence" that cameron was making contact with out of bounds when he touched the ball. that evidence was not there and certainly not indisputable.
You could see it. He never lost contact with the ball and didn't secure it until the very end. In between, his helmet clearly hit out of bounds. Incomplete. It is what it is.

I think we picked up more roadside litter than any other team in the Big 12.

Our players are making good grades, no one is getting arrested, no one is fighting about NIL in the locker room, and everybody is thinking about going to grad school

You can tell Aranda is so f ucking sick and tired of Grimes and the complete lack of an offense. He basically said it all in those halftime comments. Clearly we won't fire him, but he needs to completely clean house.
Dave's defense is unequivocally worse than our ****ty offense. Dave should be sick and tired of himself.

Which is great for an Ivy League program.

We are not that.

If you didn't experience the Steele years, you can't even fathom how bad they were.

As bad as this is, the Steele era was much, much worse.

Run left, run right, incomplete pass, punt. now of course, there's a great deal of pre-snap motion to spice things up, but there's the playbook. Enjoy

I watched Steel teams and we did
not have the talent we have on this team but Steele teams played in loaded conference

No, that's what's hilarous. The criticism by the media and other coaches then was that Baylor didn't have a route tree and therefore our offense couldn't be any good............................as we were rolling up point after point after point after point.

I hope to be wrong but I would advise y'all to be prepared to be underwhelmed with his next up, if Rhoades is still AD.


There is absolutely no reason that Kansas State and Kansas could find stud coaches and little old Baylor can't. Yes change is scary, but it's necessary. We are just delaying the inevitable at this point.

I'm sure a lot of good will was likely killed when the school railroaded and pinned institutional failures on their most successful head coach in program history. Baylor has always wanted a preacher and not a coach.


I don't know any big money folks personally, but I have no doubt that you're correct. If I was filthy rich, I'm not sure I'd be willing to give money to the current administration.

My old man does, and all of the ones he knows are pissed about Art and the BOR stuff. They will live up to the commitments they already made, but there will be no new contributions. The ROI just is t there when you have these inept screwball clergymen running the school.

FIRE THEM ALL! If we don't, Dave will undo everything we achieved from 2008 to get the program out of the gutter.

I'm sitting behind the recruits at the game. They look more like ninth and 10th grade football players than soon to be future college football players.

Brutal. Hey Aranda, how about a timeout when you realize he can't get off the field. Over his head.

At the top. Thee were still bad teams at the bottom. We just couldn't compete with those teams.

I think the offense will actually find a rhythm in the second half. But by then, the defense will have returned to our usual level.

he only calls timeouts when we have 10 on the field for a punt

I think UH already has enough points to win....but if they get at least a FG here it'll definitely be out of reach.

Ain't no way we are scoring 10 points today.

We just let a team incapable of running the ball chew up nine minutes on a half-opening drive.

Do we have a rhythm to find? What is our identity?
