Baylor has had some atrocious scandals.  Dave Bliss should really be in jail.  I have family who lives in Waco.   From what I have heard from them, it’s very nice and family friendly. It’s the home of the Chip & Joanna Gaines empire from HGTV.    I read terrible things all the time about my hometown St. Louis and my current home Jacksonville, but I find both to be pretty cool places to live.  

Baylor was able to master the art of paying players prior to NIL.  They used the Baptist church to funnel money to players’ families.  It’s amazing how many of their recruits had parents that were pastors or received a new church and funds after signing with them.

Wait , you live in Jax??

Duuval!!!

Let's Go Jags!!!

Yeah.   Really like it here.  I was JaxBilliken on here from 2000-2009, then got transferred to OKC against my will and changed my moniker.  Made it back to Florida in 2014 but just too lazy to change my screen name.  It’s amazing how long this board and its predecessor have been around.

@SluSignGuy = The Great and Powerful Oz. Except @SluSignGuy really has power, the wizard can’t let anyone see behind the curtain…

You are stuck...just ask @Soderball

More seriously, send me a PM with what you want, and I can change it.

He wants to change it to Stone Cold Shane Ford

I actually wouldn't be opposed to that haha. Also wouldn't mind an homage to the great Grandy Glaze as @RamJAMTIME said. Just can't do Travis and can't do Austin McBroom. I've also learned it may be nice to have your name independent of coaches and players.

Shirtball

It's a play on the old spoonball. I grew up in that era and I'm sticking with it. I hope we don't shoot like Virginia did though

Doug Gottleib to Wisconsin-Green Bay.   Weird.

It will be fun to see him get some criticism.  He was always quick to tell everyone what he thinks coaches are doing wrong.

I didn't know where else to say this but. Two dudes with zero coaching experience got head coaching jobs this off season and nobody offered Blake Ahearn.
