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 […]

Click here or on the photo above for a slideshow of pictures taken by Baylor photographer Robert Rogers at the press conference. BaylorBears.com also has a photo gallery of its own, as […]
It seemed like Homecoming was a good time to share this video we found recently while strolling the Internet. The 12-minute silent (but color!) film shows several then-current Baylor students having fun on campus and at Cameron Park — back in 1939 and 1940! Most of the campus shots — including the then-brand-new Pat Neff […]
It’s an epidemic — first Jeopardy, then Who Wants to be a Millionaire?, and now Wheel of Fortune! Baylor sophomore Nick Herring won almost $30,000 this week on Wheel, despite missing the final puzzle. Not a bad haul for a half-hour’s work, eh? For more on Herring’s experience, you can read this Lariat article or […]
