A little less than 20 hours ago, Baylor leaked the news through national media outlets that Head Coach Dave Aranda would return for the 2024 football season despite, to put it mildly, disappointing results from the 2022 and 2023 seasons that saw Baylor lose 13 of its last 16 games, including 7 at home, and experience the largest fall from preseason to postseason rankings in SP+ of any team since 2020. This news was, predictably, met with considerable opposition from those that have lost faith in the current regime, including me.
Realizing that we are still less than a full day out from the pseudo-announcement, and a lot of pieces are still moving and will continue to move, I remain steadfast in the belief that there is little to no chance that this move will be objectively successful.
