CWS seems like it would be the most fun of all the college championships to go to. I bet you're right. Seems like it would be great. |

One win from Omaha...seriously thinking of going (if we win). I can't go for the whole thing (too long), so should I go for the first part, and then potentially miss if they go to the finals, or should I hold out and go only if they make it to the finals? Thoughts?

Of course, we still have to win one game. But I feel good about that at home, and with two chances.

Still feel good about winning the series, but that sucked.

I've decided not to go to the College World Series.

An amazing year for Baylor athletics. A lot of fun to watch. I'm hopeful moving forward--mostly because I think we have solid coaching all around.

Baylor basketball apparently got a commitment today from 5-star 2014 recruit Leron Black. Black says, "Baylor is a great Christian school. That's the main reason I picked them."
I am increasingly convinced that Baylor's recent recruiting success is not due to cheating but rather to Jesus--and I'm not joking. I've noticed the last couple years that a lot of our recruits talk about their faith. Also, Drew is very outspoken about his faith. I think he (smartly) uses Baylor's Christian commitment to help bring in top recruits.
Of course RG3 also spoke often of his faith in relation to Baylor. That's not what brought him to Baylor, but I think it might well bring some of our future great players. Baylor just has a very unique niche in this regard, and I think it's very smart to use it as an advantage (at least for some players).
I think this even works with the "second chance all-stars" article above. Baylor is a place where troubled students can come-to-Jesus. This may well backfire, but the redemption angle Briles wants to work is not a bad strategy.

Of course, there are reasons to be disturbed by recruiting for Jesus, but I will go ahead and ignore that.

Are Baylor coaches required to sign a Christian statement of faith? I'm assuming Baylor would hire a Richard Dawkins acolyte, but I don't remember ever reading if coaches were required to be friends with Jeebus.
