I'm so glad we are building a smaller arena with student sections right on top of the court (where they have to remain silent).

I've noticed the "Event Staff" at the ferrell center have gotten more and more heavy handed over the past few years. Like the crowd is SOOOOO rowdy in the first place. It seems like Baylor leadership is purposefully trying to drive fans away.

They are succeeding in many cases. Most stccessfull part of the football program in the last two years. Hope they don't succeed with the Basketball program too.

They successfully priced me out of the new arena. But I'm an edge case. I maybe want to go to 4-5 games a year, so I liked the SRO tickets that were so cheap I didn't feel guilty about not going.

I've said it before, but this person over player mantra is not something that Aranda thought of. It's coming from Mack or someone higher than him. Winning games is no longer a priority at Baylor. The BOR wants the athletic programs to go back to the 1950s when they were kids so that they can get some nice nostalgia out of everybody being clean cut, no one cussing, few if any non-white players on the team, etc. the powers that be are satisfied with the status quo of collecting some decent big 12 money and keeping a bunch of losers on the payroll that they hired through the good old boy nepotism network. It goes without saying, but stop giving your money, don't buy season tickets, don't go to tailgates, don't go to the games. /endrant

You sir, don't know about the 1951 team. They were all bad ass fighters and beer drinking dudes. Just happened to be the number 7 team in the nation. Granted the BOR, at the time, wanted to"upgrade" the type of player with church choir boys and the teams were not in the top 10 until Briles did it.

Interesting. Well, it seems like the BOR doesn't learn from history

Is the possibly the beginning to hearing the "**** You Linda" or "**** You Mack" chants at the games...

Perhaps they should drop all pretense and hire a youth pastor as head coach. It'll be a big win on the payroll side of things, and the result this year would have been 1-9 instead of 3-7.

They probably do not care about wins anymore...and certainly want "good kids" and zero problems...but the idea that Baylor's increasingly progressive and liberal leadership wants a return to all White players or a all White 1950s school environment is hilarious.

Who is this. I assume this is twitter. I want to go find this.

We can't say anything negative to the other team or the ref? Does the go for players and coaches? Are we going to pull Drew from the bench if he tells a ref he made an idiotic call?

Absolutely insane. Like knucklehead completely oblivious to reality nonsensical insanity. This person has no business being any part of an athletic event.

Cursing out refs or the other team is different. There is a line. But no "negative comments"?? What?

I'm being facetious on that point. They will allow black students, but they don't want ones that are "too ghetto". Their words, not mine

I believe there is a Kidz Bop version or possibly a "Now that's what I call music" verion that is cleaned up. I'm surprised that they haven't gotten rid of all that rap stuff and switched over to Hillsong and Bethel music

It is insane.

And it explains a lot of the dirty looks I've seen from staff at basketball games.

I mean ... you can't hassle BIll Self about his toupee ... or Higgins about his golden fleece ... we really are a bunch of candy asses.

There is a level of hostility towards the other team or refs that is inappropriate (see, eg, what happens to us at WVU), but it's way farther down the spectrum from where we've drawn the line.

There were no non white players at Baylor in the 1950s.

There were so few blacks when I was there, I'd dress as a girl just to have a date.

If I'm honest, I was fine! My booty was phat! And the ride was so sweet.

Our administration has been on an apology tour since the scandal reminiscent of reconstruction in the south after the Civil War. Everyone hates us, and that's not going to change by trying to turn us into BYU. I've had opposing fans tell me snide remarks at our own games. What happens to them? An FBI visit to their home? Tactical nuclear strike? The big money donors are allowed to punch out windows in the private lounge, and yet the regular fans can't do anything that resembles "heckling". I know, I don't agree with cussing at people, but if the administration can't see the nuance between heckling and straight up hate speech, that's their problem

Oh yea, I agree about that.

Baylor has a strange leadership that will hire really progressive people to lecture everyone about the dangers of "White Supremacy" and build slavery memorials on campus.

Then at the very same time worry about if we have far too many Black people on the football team and also worry about them getting with White girls.

Such a strange mix of liberalism and racism all at once.

I knew a guy who got a white girl pregnant and the baby came out with a gold tooth, a durag and a 4.3 40.

I have a question. Why should I keep paying a significant amount of money to go to games. You cant cheer at games. You can't have a blackout at a football game. You can't even keep a good rivalry name for the tcu baylor game. Why keep paying if clearly the administration just wants the opposite of what the fan base wants

Dear Baylor Fans,

It's over, guys. The only items remaining to be determined are 1) which student orgs will give the "friendship" gift at midfield/center court, and 2) Star Wars or Superman at halftime.

Sincerely,
The Baylor Family
