I have an article coming that I want to hear some thoughts on from y'all. It's an opinionated piece that I think can get conversations going.

I'm having laptop issues at the moment, but I am working to get this to y'all as soon as I get this issue resolved. I apologize for the delay. Hang with me.

A look around the conference here

I promise I have more preseason ideas, but I had a stressful day at my other job, so I figured I would have some fun today. I hope y'all can understand those kinds of days, haha. Anyway, these are just some possibilities that could have happened. Please let me know what y'all think!

It was 20 years ago today that Coach Drew was named as the head coach of the Men's Basketball team!

I know I see y'all talking about how y'all love tight ends, well keep your eyes peeled for this guy. He should be behind Dabney, but don't be shocked if he gets some snaps.

Last week I looked at one from the offense, so this week we'll take a look at one that could make an impact on defense. And right in time for y'all's Monday lunch break!

Not sure how many soccer fans we have in here, but for those that are I plan to keep y'all updated as well as possible.

The women's soccer team lost their regular season opener 2-1 to Nebraska on Sunday afternoon. The Lady Huskers scored their two goals before the thirtieth minute to take a commanding lead. Just before the end of the first half, Callie Conrad scored her first career goal for Baylor with a rebound header off the crossbar. Nebraska dominated possession in the second half and shots on goal were limited. Makinzie Short had an excellent second half in net, making 12 saves to keep the Bears in the game, but the offense could not generate many more chances, and Baylor fell to 0-1.

They will face Texas A&M on Saturday at 7 p.m.

Let's just stop for a minute to wish @ahnachat a Happy 90th Birthday!

Happy Birthday! What a great day. Thanks for being a part of our lives.

I know y'all are sick of me apologizing, but I have to do it again. Due to heat, the practice schedule changed on me and Aranda actually spoke on FRIDAY before the intersquad on Saturday. This missed me completely, so it is a day late. I'm sincerely sorry about that. But here it is, a transcribed interview with Coach Aranda.

Also, in this interview Aranda mentions that Offensive Line coach Eric Mateos is dealing with a death in the family. Keep him and his family in your prayers.

I am not in Waco today, but as soon as the Athletic Department sends me the video, I'll transcribe it and get it right to y'all.

I know that the transition from Kevin to myself has been sub-par at best. I won't make any excuse for that, it is entirely my fault. I have dropped the ball on this transition and I take full responsibility. I sincerely apologize for the shortness of content y'all have received in the past month and a half.

With that said, I believe I have found a steady rhythm of giving y'all content on a daily basis. However, I want to humbly ask you all if you are ok with me taking Sundays off. The way I see this job is that you are all my bosses. I answer not just to Rivals, but to all of you, and I want to make this page worthy of the money that you pay. But I also want to balance time to grow in my faith, and spend time with my family on Sundays after church.

Of course, if there is breaking news, or something else that deserves attention, I will surrender some time on Sundays if it is so called, but I also want to make sure that I am giving my family the time that they desire from me. With the season starting, the Baylor Bears will be my first priority, but there are other aspects of my life that I do not want to neglect.

On top of that, I know y'all have expectations you want me to meet, and I want to meet all of your expectations and concerns. I am always open to private messages on where you think I could pay more attention, and where I could use improvement in my coverage. I don't just want to be good for you, I want to be the best. But I just ask that y'all give me some grace on Sundays.

If the consensus says no to this request, then I will honor it and stay active. I just wanted to run this by y'all.

God Bless, and Sic'em Bears!

Hope he sticks.

Also, why I am I having to report this?

I could be wrong about this, and with my track record I probably will be so I apologize in advance, but I've got a feeling that this kid could make a splash this year.

The 6'1, 185 lb wideout is coming off of a state championship season in Aledo. The HS sophomore had already held offers from Arkansas, Colorado State, Grambling, Oklahoma State, Penn State, TCU and Texas.

At this particular moment I am out of office, give me an hour and I'll get his page updated.

UPDATE: I have added Baylor to his offer list

Well, @seguinagave beat me to it right before I finished this one. I should have had it up first. I apologize for not being the first one on it. Here's a look at the four kickers and one punter.

I'm going to need a place to eat after the intersquad scrimmage tonight! Someplace good but won't cost an arm and a leg. Y'all have any thoughts?

Sorry for the quiet day yesterday, day job issues. Here's the transcribed interview with Sawyer Robertson.

Any idea how they are looking this Fall?

Here is a rundown on the Baylor players who made preseason award watchlists, including two I had not previously mentioned. I should have done this one a lot sooner, i'm sorry about that.

This is one of my shorter ones, sorry for that. I got to see this kid play in high school a few times and he just gets better and better. This is just my assessment and opinion, nothing special.

I kind of let my imagination run wild here, but hopefully this will get some conversations going. Sorry. Remember this is from a football perspective.

Just got a press release mentioning that our favorite running back is on the watch list for yet another award. Expectations sure are high.

I covered the offense, now time to look at the defense.

I apologize to all of you for the delay. I dropped the ball on this one. I have more coming.

Couldn’t tell here
