No Fuckin' Way! GMorriss out at BU

Commy X is in mourning, David Gettis wants to transfer to U of H, and this deal is headed to Hell in a hand basket. That's right, 18 up and 38 down just doesn't get it done, even at a private Baptist school. Baylor U has decided that Guy Morriss is out, after five years in Waco. This really proves what I've said all along: The Big 12 South is the toughest division in college football. Morriss was able to get a basketball school (Kentucky) to go 7-5 in the rugged SEC, but couldn't field a winner at Baylor. Morriss has the background, he was a starter on 2 Super Bowl teams (Philly in 1980 and New England in 1986) and did help revive UK's football program. Baylor used to crank out a lot of NFL players back in the day, particularly on the defensive side of the ball (Mike Singletary, Thomas Everett, James Francis, Don Blackmon, etc.), but hasn't been able to recruit since entering the Big 12. I still believe the potential is there for BU to be good, but they need the right coach. CM's hot name to watch: Alabama O.C. Major Applewhite.
