After disappointing play from the Defense and Special Teams units, Baylor football decided to move on from defensive coordinator Ron Roberts along with Safeties and Special Teams Coach Ronnie Wheat on Thursday, as first reported by SicEm365.com.
Baylor athletics would not comment on personnel changes.
Roberts, one of head coach Dave Aranda’s longtime mentors, led a Bears defense that let up 370.3 yards per game, the fourth-lowest in the Big 12. Baylor also held its opponents to 26.6 points a contest, fifth-best in the conference.
Aranda, now in his third year at the helm, hired Roberts in 2020, Aranda’s first year.
