Smoaky, thanks for trying to help. The sobering truth is we have seen a man with a "process" long before you focused on Baylor - his name was Kevin Steele and he didn't start his career 0-6.

"The process that is taking place at Baylor" is taking a fairly talented team and losing every game through inept coaching, all while making dumb and hypocritical excuses.

Lol, I really feel sorry for the people running this site. They are doing their best and have made a great site but the product on the field is so bad that every article is followed up with snarky, sarcastic and negative comments.

It's really sad. Baylor nation stepped it up the past several years partnering with Briles and Baylor to create a national contender with a lot of hype. Then the BOR destroyed all our work overnight.

You know the BOR said they heard God through prayer. That's a good thing. It's also possible to hear the wrong thing through prayer and miss God's will. Humility usually gets you back in line with what He really wanted you to do.

Key word: humility

The people who built and own this site are top notch. they are establishing the right content and structure for many years of insightful baylor news.

However, it'll be a painful few years until Jersey Boy is gone before we all can appreciate the true workmanship.

Agree, bad circumstances that this crew could foresee. Hopefully Rhule gets it together because I'd really like to visit this site when we're winning.

Agreed, the site is top-notch. The coaching staff, not so much. Fhule believing in Brown doesn't say much for Brown since Fhule also appears to believe in Nixon and Yoda.

Beat me to it.

Could write an article about Zach Smith and Terrance Williams saying "Mat Rhule Didn't Believe in Me"

"We are unaware of any situation where you personally had contact with anyone who directly reported to you being the victim of sexual assault or that you directly discouraged the victim of an alleged sexual assault from reporting to law enforcement or university officials. Nor are we aware of any situation where you played a student athlete who had been found responsible for sexual assault.”
- Chris Holmes, Baylor General Counsel

I can't say one way or the other if they prayed. I do know that they "cried out to God" and merrily stated that they did so to the media.

It is pretty sad. The fans, the program.. even marketing were all really stepping up. Many people unexposed to BU previously loved watching us play. A solid brand was starting to build and then...

He seems to be doing a fantastic job teaching DBs, too.

You think Rhule's belief has waned enough to replace this guy with someone that knows pursuit angles next year?

No, he has a long history and trusts these guys. Terrible combination when it comes to making critical decions about people.

Rhule cashed in some political capital early by hiring his buddy to be OC for the first time in his career.
