I was told by DA that the Mack news wasn't a distraction, and that the team was ready to win.

Unless a BMD from 10 years ago comes in and says let me take care of everything, meaning more than writing a check, I don't know what to do. I don't trust any employee of Baylor to handle this right. We essentially don't even have an AD right now and if he comes back, I'm not sure that is better.

If the decision has been made though that a new athletic dept will decide Aranda's fate in a year, Powledge needs to go before the next game.

Under the circumstances, if they won 6 they should probably opt out.

It used to really really hurt if we lost a game. I don't care anymore. There is too much other good football to watch than Aranda's starship. Can failure at your job be cause for firing? False credentials?

Anyone but the aggies please

Didn't realize that organizations had a level lower than Need to Implode All Structures, Remove All Rubble, Decontaminate Soil, Start Over.

We likely have to climb for 2-3 years to reach ground level.

I can't believe that Dave Aranda was able to create generational wealth by being this bad at something. Capital is supposed to reward value. This is a glitch in the matrix.

What's sad is this beat down home loss was a very winnable game had we had a QB that could consistently hit wide open receivers and at least a barely average defense.

Looked like Hawkins tried to separate Wilson from the DB and th DB punched him. And like the WV women yesterday after 2 Duke players shoved them, he retaliated and got tossed.
