Do we have any Baylor players that would do that? Mahones markets Tech. I don't hear any former Athlete market Baylor.

Baylor isn't going to let any of them. We are married to the dull sunflower look for the time being.

RG3 is the closest we have on that front. He has been an ambassador… But we have not given him much the last two years to promote

Mcguire's teams play at a far greater level of energy than ours does. McGuire has a well run program and he's a good coach. Not sure why you're down on him. It's obvious he's good.

Yep to the energy part. Tech isn't all that talented but they play extremely hard and they play fast.

Its very rare for an Aranda team to set the tone or to play harder than the opponent. They are hesitant and caught thinking too much which leads to mistakes and drains energy. Not a coincidence this matches Dave's style to a t. Sucks the energy and motivation out of the room. There is a reason most fb coaches are not stoic pseudo philosophers.

It's not his personality that is the problem. We won the Sugar Bowl with the same personality.

We ares struggling because he didn't pay his dues as a head coach and now we are seeing the results of that. He cannot build a program..

Joey left in that 21 year and after that things went down hill. Joey took James Blanchard with him and that dude knows every player in the state. Thats where things took a wrong turn.

Agreed. I like all of Tech's new Adidas uniforms, but these are particularly slick.

Using that logic, if we believe this is a "paying dues, learning curve" we should keep him. Because what he learned, he will use at his next stop. But, that will fit. He will be a success and thank all the hardship at Baylor. That would fit...

We don't have a Pat Mahomes in the NFL. Bernard is the closest to reaching superstar as of right now but QB's will always be the biggest names.

Agree. I usually like all of Tech unis. Some of the Oki Lite look good to me too, when they do all black with the orange trim.

Let's beat them.

Missing the point. That is a good thing or explanation?

I can see recruiting now: "Don't pay any attention to the Mahones commercials, we just don't have a QB in the NFL. Now let me tell you about Waco. Did you know that we have the first suspension bridge here and the highest water tower in the region".

Sorry to be a smart ass, Aimed at Mack.

It can help recruiting when you have former big time NFL players showing up to campus every now and then. Shows your program puts people into the NFL.

RGIII is actually a superstar with having only a short NFL career. He is signed with Addidas not Nike or at least was. Even if he was with Nike, the administration would not let him work with Nike to over ride what they think is their cool non blinging green and yellow flower look they created. Well actually that Lilley created but that they have claimed credit for.

He's soft as a baby's bottom. Needs to hang up his cleats before he gets himself killed. Bless his daisy heart.

Well I must have missed this Mahone's commercial. But I see RGIII on the Nissan commercials wearing his Baylor jersey fairly regularly this season. I bet if you watch the Texas OU game you might see it.

He is in the Heisman House. I don't get to see the Nissan Commercials here, so he may do it.

But, what we are discussing is the Mahone's Texas Tech ads with the current team, which help recruiting.

That's correlation, not causation.

We started to suck because we hired the wrong guy to be our HC. Once Aranda ran out of Rhules key contributors, we stumbled to 3 wins last year.

Baylor football's last home win against a Big 12 team occurred on November 5, 2022, when we defeated the Sooners 38-35 at McLane Stadium. We are coming up on 2 years. The wheels fell off in 2022. Burned his get out of jail free card in 2023 and Mack burned his in 2024. How many more bs chances do these guys get and why?

Any number of people have given their opinion on that question over the past month or two.
