Single-digit numbers are (have been) a status symbol at many (most) top programs for years. Long a favorite of skill-position players, the numbers are increasingly being earned by even defensive linemen and linebackers. I am not against the increased press attention to this at Baylor now, in fact I am for it. Its just funny how we never heard about it under previous regimes. Maybe that says something.

Maybe CMR is doing some solid things with the Baylor program....you CMR haters out there.

No quarterback? Zack was in there last year.

Once again just a brief note...I can love CAB and CMR both, it is not against the law or an either or situation.

Jalen Pitre should be #1 because he is the one recruit who honored his commitment and stuck with BU in 2016.

I'm guessing whoever Rhule names starter at QB will earn one of the last two spots
