Sounds like Jarrett Stidham is out at Baylor and might head to a JUCO. Whoever gets him is getting a stud.

Probably, but it will change how bailer runs their O. With only Russell as a viable QB, he won't be running much, which is a significant part of the bailer O. I look for them to drop 4 maybe five games. Once Russell leaves, the bottom will start to drop out. It will take a few years, but bailer is on a similar trajectory as CU, denver sc said above.Seth Russell is cleared to play. If he stays healthy, they could still be a top 25 team.
I also found it interesting that most of the transfers seemed to want to stay in the Big 12. Think those guys will play with an extra chip on their shoulder against Baylor each year.
Their staying in the Big12 is probably a function of the short amount of time they needed to find a new home and get enrolled.
With Stidham transferring, that should just about put the final nail in the coffin on the 2016 season for Baylor.
We've seen this act play out before, firsthand.
Even if this is the "end" of the widespread negative publicity, Baylor is somehow able to sweep everything else under the rug, and Grobe is more than competent as a HC (his history suggests otherwise), the damage has been done.
1. They'll stay semi-competitive while the last of the Briles recruits cycle out.
2. Then, there will be a dropoff in talent when the first wave of kids who grew up watching RGIII and wanting to wear green and gold graduate.
3. If they lose enough over that period, there will then be kids ridiculed for even considering Baylor with how much they lose.
There's going to be a long 10-15 year period before they hit bottom, and even then they may not get up off the mat. Even then, who knows if they will? CU is the closest analog to Baylor that I can think of in recent memory (and CU's "scandal" pales in comparison to that of Baylor's), and to be frank we've yet to get up off the mat.
I'd feel somewhat bad for their fans that aren't being sanctimonious, raging assholes... if there were any.
Drew Wilson just started following Stidham
I thought Stidham was part of bailers 2015 class, so he would not have had time to RS. I think he was a true frosh last year and has his RS intact.Interesting. I don't think Stidham is playing football at his juco, just keeping up with coursework and being ready to enroll somewhere in January. He was a RS Frosh last year, so he'd be a Junior in 2017. CU doesn't have any junior or senior QBs in 2017. Hmmm.

Isn't Grobe supposed to be the 'character' guy?
So he'll end up at Cal?Stidham flipped from Tech to Baylor, so I presume DC may have some connection with him already.
After he give a verbal to us and strings us along for a few monthsSo he'll end up at Cal?

We need to talkCU is the boyfriend the asks "are you breaking up with me?" every time she asks to talk about something.
If this season turns out like I think it will, I don't see why CU would be any less attractive of an option to a kid than anywhere else- especially a kid who "wants to be the man" wherever he goes. CU will be on the upswing, have a gaping hole in the upperclassman QB position, and plenty of offensive weapons coming in.Surely Stidham will have no shortage of options, but why not toss the old CU hat into the ring.

This. If Briles' son is gone (and not sure he'd hold it together without Dad), their offense will falloff, no matter who the players.Briles might be an ass hole but we was an offensive genius, no way in hell that team is anywhere near as successful as they were the last few seasons on that side of the ball. I mean he was almost as good as Herman with backup qbs
