Joey was never a bad coach to begin with. That's the whole point. In the 3 seasons prior to 25 he had a winning record. Something your homeboy Dave has done 2/6 seasons.
Those are Joeys players are they not? You still have to coach and develop guys. Something dip**** Dave has yet to do in 6 years. Tech even prior to this year had a much higher floor under Joey than BU under Dave. Using Nil is lame. Baylor got their asses kicked by several teams with much lower NIL bank rolls.
You think Cincy or AZ have better NIL than BU? What about TCU or Utah? Unlikely. But by all means continue blaming Nil as to why Dave sucks while simultaneously using NIL as the sole reason Tech has left BU in the dust
True, Maguire was a good HS coach. No doubt.
Develop players? They bought the players at Tech already developed. It was plug and play.
They also have Mahomes out their pushing the brand. Who does Baylor have out there? Hell, our own fan-base can't get over something that ended 10 years ago. It is still all about Briles...
Tech used NIL fantastically. I will give them credit for that. Focusing on buying units rather than just individual players is brilliant. To me, THAT is the key take away. We are going to spend money, you need the whole unit. A DT or a WR does little. A whole DL, a whole front 7? NOW you are talking.
How did Baylor use NIL? We don't give NIL. Then we have snarky t-shirts "We Pay Player". What NFL player is out pushing Baylor? You do not put ANY on that on Rhodes? It was all Aranda not winning?
You don't think that put Aranda behind the curve? I do believe Aranda is at the wrong place, but I do not believe Joey Maguire is a better college coach.
