    UTSA proving a tough matchup. Still disappointed we couldn't get Visible Changes University on the schedule for this season.

    They backed out, the stylists didn't feel comfortable going to Waco.

    Can't blame them if it was back when I was there. But Waco is super hipster now. Organic food markets and home remodeling shows for the win.

    Look at the bright side Baylor - at least Trump and Devos are trying to make campus sexual assault great again

    Rhule has shown no patience trying to implement his system (running under center, slow ass pace at times, etc). What I mean is that his style (similar to K State imo) will work but not with the personnel we have in year 1 of his tenure. The offensive line is so bad

    Rhoades assured Baylor nation that he would get a coach that would run an offense that fans had gotten accustomed to. The lie detector has determined that to be a lie

    Can we win ONE game? Yes. Start Zach Smith since Solomon is trash. Get T Will back. Get Hasty and Arnold back. Yes we can win one game I think. Lol how pathetic we have become

    That's what happens when you essentially lose 2 recruiting classes.

    Zach Smith to start (like he should have in the first place). We went from beating a ranked Boise team to close out last season to losing to Liberty and UTSA FFS. Smith was the easy choice.

    BoB and Rhule may as well be the same damn coach. SMFH

    Sounds a lot like Strong's first year at Texas.

    I did not expect this game to be even remotely close. Win or lose at this point, I'm impressed. Tremendous effort.

    SOURCES: Baylor coach Matt Rhule interviewed for the Indianapolis Colts head coaching vacancy earlier this week. Rhule, who completed his first season with the Bears in November, spent the 2012 season as the New York Giants offensive line coach. He is 29-34 in five seasons as a college head coach.

    How TF did Rhule get an interview with the Colts?

    Zero loyalty in sports -- you just sold something to a top 20ish class and now he does this crap after a 1 win embarrassing season.

    Kalon Barnes, Connor Galvin and Craig Williams were all given a fourth star on 247 making that 7 four star commits. Two more 4 stars leaning Baylor including Tommy Bush. 9 four stars (247 composite) would make this the best class in Baylor history.

    Rivals.com puts this class at #32. ESPN puts us at #24. We got 4 4-Star recruits and 22 total commits. Not bad...not bad at all.

    @gucci888 would prefer to discuss the team and season in this thread

    http://bbs.clutchfans.net/index.php...ndal-mega-thread.275488/page-18#post-11942599

    ACU - WIn
    UTSA - Win
    Duke - Win
    Kansas - Win
    @ Oklahoma - Loss
    KSU - Win/loss - I think we can get this one and get back on track of being a good home team
    @ Texas - Loss (I'll be at this game)
    @ West Va - Loss
    Ok State - Win/Loss
    @ Iowa State - Win
    TCU - Loss
    Texas Tech - Win

    I think 4-5 in conference play can happen. We have impact transfers that will play. Charlie Brewer looked good last season (winning co Big 12 Freshman of Year). The offensive line will be improved.. skill positions are where we are still pretty loaded.
