The NCAA needs to do just that to them. But they will not. The current political climate is all against it.

Did not mean it in that sense OK. I have been after the Conference to get rid of Baylor for years.
They should have.
I too am still a Big 12 Alum (KU) and I was speaking out when Texas used their “Authauratah” to attempted to make that bitter pill easier to take. It was never easy to take. We gave up on the “No Parochial Institution” clause of the Big 8 institutional pact and changed it for Texas (as I remember). But if the Athletic…
Lord. There is more of a problem here than simple assaults. The University, the Athletic Department, the Coaching Staff and THE STUDENTS WHO KNEW BUT DID NOT TELL-all of them are accessories after the fact. When the Big 8 took on some of the SWC schools I was OK with them, even Texas which brought us all down, but I…
When I went to Kansas in the last 4 years of the 70s, we never had to play Baylor. I wish it was still the same. Baylor Athletics have gone from College to Criminal. I came out of KU in 1980 knowing good from bad. Now our local Fundie U. is guilty of letting these acts go on and on? They are no more “Christian” than a…
Dan and Jessica. You have uncovered something that will eventually destroy the Big 12 Conference. And if KU does not have to play these psalm singing Southern Baptist Molesters in my life it will be too soon. The only thing keeping KU and OU in the Big 12 is state law in both Kansas and Oklahoma-otherwise KU would…
Look, Baylor -ACTS- like it is bringing salvation to us Public University Grads. 52 reported rapes and the Church cover-up is quite another matter. Baylor Students seem to believe they are on a higher plane than the rest of us. I guarantee if it were UT, KU, OU, TTU, ISU, KSU or OSU you would have the entire nation…
Where?
Yeah right. What mind drugs are you on?
Just change the wording, say at “A major Texas University” and see how hot the language gets.
Not when I went to a Big 12 University.
just WHO is silly for believing such a load of Crap? Try putting down the Bible for a few minutes and think on your own.
If this is what you believe this-you are part of the problem. Do you really believe sending kids to Waco does this in them, you obviously have little to do with them as students. Every time I have seen them play the language used by the students etc. are no better than a UT or TTU Student-Baylor Students seem to have…
Look, as a grad of a Big 8 University, the first thing we did that was problematic was that we let Parochial School in.
This is not about Athletics. It is about an aberrant Culture toward Collegiate Athletics in Texas. The Big 8 would have been better off just letting the SWC die instead of trying to help them.
Don’t forget People of Color, Jews, Anyone who is NOT a Fundie Christian.
I would not send an alligator I did not like to Baylor.
Please stop mentioning anyone’s Divinity here, it just eggs them on.
That is not funny or germane to the discussion we are having. Figures from a UT Student. No wonder nearly all the old Big 8 Schools left for other Conferences. The ADs at Iowa State, Kansas, and K-State are looking for a way out without going broke. KU just might do it.
