Episode Details

Baylor Bears fans face a harsh truth: the athletic department is sinking into mediocrity after years of championship highs. Cam Stuart sounds the alarm on Baylor football’s ongoing struggles under Dave Aranda and a men’s basketball squad plagued by poor roster construction, coaching inertia, and a lack of fiery leadership. When was Baylor’s last truly big win in football, men’s, or women’s hoops? The answer drives a passionate call for urgent change—can Doug McNamee orchestrate a turnaround before Baylor fades further into irrelevancy?

On the hardwood, Scott Drew’s men’s basketball team leads the Big 12 in turnovers and suffers from disappointing transfer pickups, with Rob Wright’s high-profile departure underlining the talent gap. Women’s basketball, meanwhile, offers a rare bright spot, with Kalia Butler highlighting national powerhouses like South Carolina. Plus, the Big 12 touts Brett Yormark’s new LED glass floor—will innovation distract from deeper competitive woes?
