That time out was the dumbest coaching move I've seen in a long time.
There is no excuse for calling that.

Robert Griffin is just an absolute stud among a sea of complete crap. He just beat the #5 team in the country essentially by himself. Holy crap what a performance.

Strangley Floyd Casey is now a hard place to play. Baylor is 5-0 this season at home and beaten 2 top 25 and now a top 5 opponents, up next is neutral site versus texas tech at Cowboy Stadium, and a home game against Texas.trickblue;4254320 said:

Keenum puts up big numbers in a playstation offense in maybe the worst FCS conference in America. He'll never be anything more than guys like Kliff Kingsbury and Andre Ware were. Solid accuracy, but he just isnt a next level kind of talent.

I don't understand Baylor's reasoning behind a new stadium unless they plan on decreasing attendence. Floyd Casey has sold out THREE TIMES in the last quarter century, and all were against A&M and Texas who bring 20,000+ of their own fans. I get that they want a stadium closer to campus, but nobody has any reason to fund it outside of the university itself which ranks 89th among FCS programs in annual private donations. Where is the money coming from? And if it exists, how are they going to afford programs like women's basketball and softball while they foot the bill?
Baylor needs to make another good hire when Briles leaves for the Ole Miss or Arizona job after this season, have a few more 7-8 win seasons and increase interest before talking about a new stadium IMO.

Oh aggie, I can sense your dislike for Baylor in every post. The idea behind a new stadium is not to create a bigger stadium, but yes to bring it closer to the campus.
Floyd Casey is old and outdated, plus its location in Waco is terrible. Having a stadium located next to I-35, Baylor campus and the river would act as a strong recruiting tool, both to high school players and for attendance to the stadium. Even though they are on the upswing, Baylor is still a school with poor football history in the past 20 years or so and with an enrollment of no more than 15,000 students of mostly girls they do not always have the best attendance. A new stadium would probably boost attendance on top of being another selling point to new recruits.
Of course, financing it would be no easy task. However similar to the new athletic facilities built a couple of years ago, most of the money would come from fundraising and private donations. I believe Baylor has already started trying to raise the money.
A stadium like the one in the following link would be absolutely amazing. http://www.baylorbears.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/110511aab.html
On a side note, I hope with all that is within me that RGIII does not go to the Commanders.
