Total embarrassing collapse in which we lost exactly one game in which we were favored?

You're a clown, bro.

Pretty hard to support Drew with crap like this for the last 4 games. That's why fans don't support his program. It's feast or famine.
So how long ago did you buy your t shirt?

Not hard for me. But I fancy myself as not being an emotionally unstable fan that changes my allegiance with every win or loss.

For the record, what's your stance on Rhule this week? Still like him? Or maybe the bowl win is too far in the past so back to hating him. But he's recruiting well, so...eh, nevermind.

If Mason and Bandoo get hot next Thursday, you'll be back on the bandwagon.

Well, there is always the big dance. I hope, for the teams sake, that we get 1 win, though it's not looking like that will happen. We got a lot more excitement this season than we thought we would, so that is a major plus. Drew rarely has us playing well in the conference tournament, so that is no big surprise.

Hopefully the rest before the dance turns out to be positive.

Some of you guys are such babies. Your definition of a true fan is someone who always makes excuses for losses, never criticizes the coach because he's a Christian and runs a clean program and pumps sunshine. The fact is that Baylor had a "good " year. They played some great games which we all enjoyed and credited players and coaches. The fact is also that they had many games, in which they looked unprepared, uninspired , no teamwork and unskilled. Everybody gets the credit when they win, and everybody gets the blame when they lose. Baylor's regular season ended this year with the Texas game, and , hey, that's ok.

So, let me get this straight. Everyone else is a baby for not acting like a petulant child after losses. There's some serious irony in seeing the biggest whiner on this board call everyone else babies. And it's clearly lost on you.

Calm down. Bear2b2. It'll be alright. Dang, I didn't know you were on Baylor's payroll. It's funny the way you jump so quickly to criticize other points of view. You must not be married. Just take deep breaths.

I miss EGOT posts. I sure would like to read his always well thought out and strong basketball analysis.
Our PG situation would be a good topic.

I don't criticize opposing viewpoints when they're well-reasoned and can be backed by fact. Yours just never are.

When all you bring to the table is overly emotional, reactionary garbage, you're going to get it thrown back in your face.
