Last week, we wrote about three exceptional students who will start at Baylor this fall. ABC’s World News Tonight did us one better, featuring another soon-to-be Baylor freshman, Kristin Elliott, as the program’s “Person of the Week” last Friday. (You can watch the segment here.) Elliott has been fighting a rare, aggressive form of cancer […]
Last fall, we wrote about the four (now five) Baylor students who were planning to bicycle from Waco to Anchorage, Alaska, to raise awareness for suicide prevention. The guys are still at it, and have now gained national attention for their work. Earlier this month, the quintet hosted the “Dean’s List” music video countdown on […]
Congratulations once more to the Baylor men’s basketball team on the program’s best season in 20 years. The best part is that, looking ahead, this year shouldn’t be a fluke, but the beginning of a long stretch of success. Much of that has to do with the hard work of head coach Scott Drew and […]
Approximately 600 fans gathered at the Ferrell Center Sunday night to join the Baylor men’s basketball team in watching to see if the Bears would make this year’s NCAA Tournament. As head coach Scott Drew said, “We wanted to watch this with our family, and you [the fans] are our family.” The CBS announcers went […]
I was impressed to read this morning in the Waco Tribune-Herald that a crowd of about 200 fans, mostly students, gathered on the spur of the moment at the Ferrell Center — despite rain and temperatures around 40 degrees — to welcome home the men’s basketball team bus when it arrived back from College Station.

Now THAT’S the way to make a statement. Fresh on the heels of earning their first national ranking in almost 40 years, the No. 25 Baylor men’s basketball team battled No. 18 Texas A&M through five — count ’em, FIVE — overtimes last night in College Station before pulling out a 116-110 victory. (ESPN.com has […]
Former Baylor kicker Jeff Ireland made headlines last week when he was introduced as the new general manager of the Miami Dolphins. (For a transcript and video of the press conference, click here.) Ireland lettered at Baylor from 1988-91 and still holds the school records for field goals made in a season (18) and career […]
The beginning of a new year seems as good a time as any to look at why we are “Baylor Proud.” You’ve likely heard the commercials or seen the advertisements — “I found myself at Baylor.” It was certainly true for me, and that connection has held strong for me since graduation — whether I […]
“Jingle bears, jingle bears, jingle all the way…” Like the rest of the University, the Baylor Proud team is off this week for Christmas. We’ll be back next week, but in the meantime, we leave you with wishes for a very merry Christmas and a happy new year! (Click here or on the picture at […]
When we first started this blog and were out roaming the Internet for content, I found this video and bookmarked it to save until Christmas. That time is now, so without further ado, I present: the Baylor Girl Chipmunk Christmas video. Sic ’em, Baylor Chipmunk carolers!
