In the final press conference of the season, as National Signing Day was finishing up, head coach Dave Aranda told the media that Baylor would be prioritizing building in the trenches, specifically mentioning the defensive line, in this year’s transfer portal period.
People heard this and ran with it, thinking Baylor would look like Texas Tech next season, which was never going to happen.
