The Fall of Baylor Football...

- Just a few years ago, Baylor shocked everyone in the college football world when they not only put together their best season in school history but also won the Big 12 and beat Ole Miss in the Sugar Bowl to cap off a 12-2 season. Dave Aranda looked like he was building something special and turned down multiple bluebloods to stay in Waco. There was excitement back in the program that had not been there since Matt Rhule had ripped everyone’s heart out and left for the NFL out of nowhere in 2019. That season was 2021. Since then, Baylor has been 9-17, has not beaten an FBS team at home since October of 2022, and has lost 13 of their last 16 games. The program looks to be in a tough place but despite the decline, they decided to give Aranda one last year to right the ship. This is the story of the fall of Baylor and whether they can right the ship.

This is why I love Big 12 football. Sadly, my Sooners are leaving but thanks for the memories
Why because all the teams in the big 12 were equally trash? Had 1 single team win a playoff game and then go on to lose the NC by 60 🤣
Sooner nation ♥️♥️♥️
Sooners will be big dawgs in the SEC! And I'm an Arkansas fan who witnessed the 1978 Orange Bowl in person!
@@djLagwayEnjoyer FSU lost by 60... TCU lost by a much more respectable 58.
Same with my Longhorns 😢
As a Baylor fan this makes me sad
2013 Baylor had the best offense I've ever seen
I miss those Briles/Rhule era Oregon style, bear claw on the shoulder uniforms. I honestly think most of those uniform combos were done better than Oregon because it wasn't too many uni combos that weren't their school colors like Oregon did.
Great vid Jonny!
I dont know why you keep saying Matt Rhule shocked the world when he left. Everyone knew he was leaving. He interviewed for NFL jobs every summer he was here lmao. and I mean that literally. No one was shocked or caught off guard by that. and that was part of the problem. Rhule couldn't recruit for shit because everyone knew he was leaving. He was a GREAT developer of talent though.
It's been rough but there is already some hope. Aranda has finally embraced NIL, and our 2025 class reflects that. Alot of momentum in the program right now. As long as we make a bowl game Arandas job should be safe and we can keep this class together
Baylor fan here. Until Aranda is gone, we won't be relevant. Aranda is a program maintainer, not a program builder. Aranda has no sideline energy, no transfer portal moves, no high school recruiting, iffy NIL, and an unwatchable style of football. The 2021 season was a product of Matt Rhule recruiting, except for Briles recruit Jalen Pitre, and Aranda's people knowing how to manage an experienced team. Hopefully now that Grimes is out the playing style will change. Still skeptical of everything else though.
Could not have put it better, this is the truth they need to find a d2 winning coach and program builder look at KSU head coach and even KU head coach. The next coach needs to be able to build a roster and take 3 to 4 star talent and build them into 5 stars like rhule and Art did.
@@bryceburk6035 @oedipuslex8557 hopefully July changed your mind. NIL and recruiting is clearly not an issue anymore. The problem wasn't lack of money. The problem was Aranda was too resistant to use NIL in this era when its mandatory to compete.
Baylor is like a roller coster,one season their 6-6 and than the next 3-9 but they did beat long Island an fcs school so I don't know what he is talking about
I live in a part of NYC that's geographically on Long Island and had NO idea there was an actual FCS team I could drive 20 minutes to see; and that they lost to Baylor. That's how big a Win Baylor had over the LIU Sharks.
As I current Baylor student, I wish I had come in when Rhule started :(
The best time to be a Baylor fan - Baylor student was 2011-2015 2 big 12 championships and a heisman winner

You should do the rise of Texas State University Football
Aranda inherited Rhule’s program, peaked with Rhule’s guys, and now they suck. Aranda can’t build
Bro, I just stumbled on your channel, today and I’m binge watching your vids. Great videos, man! I subscribed
I really appreciate it
Baylor will bounce back
Called it
I’m doubtful that Aranda can turn it around but you can never know in college football
Never say never
All he needs is the right offensive coordinator and somebody that can recruit. He's deciding to run the defense now, so it will get better.
@@ghostwalker89 Spot on, and he did just that. Got Jake Spavital as OC and Kehnon Hall is fucking crushing the recruiting trail right now. Baylor is #27 on 247 despite coming off a 3-9 season with some MAJOR bluechip guys choosing them over SEC/B1G schools
Scapegoating art brieles
With Texas and OU now in the SEC, it’ll be interesting to see who steps up to be the big dog of the new Big 12. There has to be a pack leader. My guess is it’s gonna be one of the four teams from the old PAC12..
Baylor has a make or break season in 2024, and you better believe Aranda’s seat is going to be really hot.
Even in the 1-11 season those guys played with heart and grit. These past 2 seasons have been some of the most boring, lack luster football any program can play at any level. It is so crazy to see not only the players but the fans/ stadium has adopted a whole personality of a mediocre coach.
BU football has been spiraling down for the past 3 years. BU Coach Aranda and AD Rhodes completely missed the mark of changes that occurred in CFB. Three years is a long time to have your head in the sand. Both Rhodes and Aranda should have been fired a long time ago. They must have really enjoyed their time on Teams or WebEx during COVID. 2024 will be another devasting year and one that the University will FINALLY see the program has hit rock bottom. Very sad for the Baylor nation to experience it. Bring back Art Briles.
If Aranda gets fired I know a guy from Stephenville who runs a great offense Baylor could go after
As much as Aranda deserves the criticism he’s received , Baylor’s AD should also be on the hot seat. Being slow to ramp up their NiL collective could prove to be fatal , but more to the point , if their AD’s gamble to stay with Aranda fails tthey will have wasted years resources $$$ putting them at the bottom of the Big 12 FB wise that is poised to add even more competitive teams
/programs if/when the ACC implodes.
Love the the vids, but nobody has ever done one on the greatest ncaa duo ever insane stats(chase clement & jarrett dillard) Rice football
Get ready to make a “Rise of Baylor Football” video this year 😂
Hey I love Dave aranda so I hope so 😂
He will be acting DC this year so maybe he’ll be able to get the train back on the track
Subscribed for “damn yankee coaching down in Texas” 😂
" he's a damn yankee"
My guy who hurt you up north?
He most likely got that from one of the message boards. I seem to recall a lot of people calling Matt Rhule a New Jersey conman.
If Aranda doesn’t impress they should hire Jeff Traylor
In Two years they might be a lil two good👀 jus trust
Probably nor. The future of college football is one of haves and have not in regards to NIL money. Combine that with declining birth rates and overall declining college enrollments, and I forsee the amount of viable programs in future being cut in half.
We won't care about smaller school like Eastern Michigan or UMass dropping down or closing their programs entirely.
Yet we will see a shuffling of the deck where programs like Vanderbilt, Baylor, WASU, Wake Forest will all begin to look like UMass, Liberty, Ball State etc when all the small programs we see today could likely cease to exist.
Liberty isn’t really in the same category as UMASS, Wazzu, or Ball State for that matter. Last time they played Baylor, they won.
@@jacksonperry8283liberty isn’t a real football program
Baylor has stupid money for NIL to compete in this era man, the problem was Aranada wasn't embracing NIL and trying to sign guys just of the vibes a lone. That has changed.. Baylors 2025 class is #27 on 247 with multiple blue chip guys that had B1G and SEC offers. Flipping guys left and right.
Now that Baylor is paying players its scary hours again for the rest of yall
Gary Patterson will take over mid season of 2024.
Sic em bears
Kellen Moore
Texas state head coach should be next for Baylor
I think the world of Dave Aranda.. but college football is now stratified.. Baylor is a second division team now and simply is not able to recruit the players to really compete..
This didn't age well
Aranda should be gone.
The school who hid and defended serial rapists because they were good at football doesn't deserve shit
Can you fall auburn football
It's because no recruits want live in Waco. Just like now that there is the NIL nobody want to live in Tuscaloosa.
This didnt age well lol. Baylors 2025 class is #27 on 247 with multiple blue chip guys choosing baylor over
B1G and SEC offers. You have no idea what you are talking about. Waco is 90 minutes from Dallas and Austin. 3 hours from Houston. Texas is a high school football hot bed, and these kids want to stay close to home.
Art KNEW...Kendal KNEW...Lebby KNEW.... They deserve everything negative they get.
I agree, not understanding how his son and Lebby keep getting jobs and Art can't.
