baylors 15 minutes are over. they will never see the national stage again in football..But their is basketball ...
It was more than 15 minutes and there is no legit reason for it to be permanently "over". BU is still located smack in the middle of as hot of a recruiting area as there is in the country and financial commitment plus facilities/infrastructure aren't and haven't been the obstacles they once were for a decade now and counting. You obviously have to have the right HC and staff which we clearly don't right now - but that's not ultimately some impossible hurdle that can't be overcome.
When you think about how rare it is to have a consistently winning coach, you can't just go out and hire one when you want. There is so much luck involved.
Look at UT and how many coaches they went through before finding success again. Tech still hasn't found it after Leach, although perhaps they have someone now. TCU is wildly variable. Colorado went years without a good coach, Nebraska has never gone back to where they were, Michigan went through years before finding a coach, Florida has been awful, Georgia never went all the way before Smart, and Miami hasn't seen success like they used to, Stanford has been bad for a while.
There's a lot of blue bloods who can't find one, it won't be easy for Baylor.
