Aranda Addresses Fan Frustration, Retention Decision as Baylor Seeks Bowl Eligibility

Less than 36 hours after President Dr. Linda A. Livingstone gave head coach Dave Aranda a vote of confidence, the Bears were blown out 41–17 at Arizona in Tucson. It marked the third time this fall Baylor has lost by more than three touchdowns.

The Bears entered this year with high expectations to compete for a conference championship and a College Football Playoff appearance, but have fallen flat this season, further widening the divide between Aranda and the fanbase.
