Hard to argue wo baylor being the best in tx right now in terms of the two key revenue sports. Having said that I do believe we have a better basketball team and program with LB. And having to live in baylor for 4 years must be a real drag. Baylor is a better school than tcu but between the two academically speaking and the location of Baylor...yikes. No offense.

Did you go to SMU?


Yes I did. As did my father. But when you live less than three quarters of a mile from campus, your kids probably have other ideas. He chose well in Baylor. Good school. Great athletics.

Lots of folks on this board grew up that close or closer to campus and still made the right decision.

I grew up close to SMU and did not mind not going far, but it is not for everyone. I know children of some great SMU alumni that chose to go to other schools.

#smualumsunitedagainstfellowalumsallowingtheirchildrentogotobaylortcutexas. Rice is ok.

I don't care where you live - 1000 miles or 1 block. I'm questioning the sanity of letting your child attend Baylor or TCU or Texas (in that order). Certainly your right, just my opinion.

Oh no! I think Incarnate Word is going to drop out of the top 10. They fall to Texas A&M-CC, 71-70. The Cardinals find out it ain't easy being the hunted.
