Two of my sources within the athletic dept. say still interviewing, no coach chosen, probably next week or later. For sure not today, the players meeting is simply to remind players to go to class, lift weights, etc. and to say the process of choosing a coach is ungoing.

I know it's not the news we wanted, but seems to be true. I'm getting more and more worried the longer this takes, but sources keep reassuring me saying we will get somone very good. We'll see!!


I'm just hoping Orsini has his guy and isn't telling minions or anyone outside Turner and the search committee (Ford, Sewell)


You may be on to something..........

That may be the case, my contacts are in pretty good. Orsini is really keeping this between him and a very small group, like you said Turner obviously included in that group. It may be for whatever reason Orsini's man, if there is one is just not available yet.

Berger, I thought it was funny also. You think we want to know who the new coach is? As a former player who went through this same situation at SMU, I can assure you the players want to know also? They are all speculating just like we are, probably hanging out playing video games, talking about who it could be. Probably on this site called Pony Fans, heard of it? How much time do some of us hang watching this board? Do you think they don't?

Baylor can't be turned around while in the Big XII.


If Kansas can do it Baylor can do it.
