I think it's more likely that they lost their audience. Probably because of too much competition, especially from Sicem365.

Who was that who lost his son ? What a tragedy for that family. I cannot fathom.

OurDailyBears is now Oso Media Group

Same people, different name that's not an SB Nation affiliate.

Not to diminish the work of others that cover Baylor, but the ODB/OMG content is my personal favorite. It's not exclusive, so they're not breaking news or anything. But they are a bunch of Baylor fans who do it for fun - so their content is more fun too. Their podcast is fantastic.

Probably good for Sic'Em, but I do believe that some level of competition is essential to keep up a great product.

And like 365, it looks like their bear mascot logo is far better than BU's current official one, or any they have used in a good while.

I could certainly be wrong, but I don't think it has anything to do with competition, at least not directly. Their platform just stopped providing support to their site. Most of their engagement is on Twitter/X and Discord anyway. They have almost 28k followers.

And it wasn't too long ago that SicEm let it be known how they really feel about us freeloaders having an open mic. Us poors need a place to jump to.
