Baylor Bears Struggles Towards Glory

Since its beginning days in 1914, The Baylor Bears basketball program has only once made it to the Big Game in 1948. Since that time, however, the Bears have been struggling to put together a solid team with championship caliber players. Constantly facing losing seasons to difficult opponents, most of the Baylor attention was then turned towards their elite football team. Season in and season out, disappointment was the only reward. And then they got their national spotlight in 2003 but for all the wrong reasons. In 2003 Baylor basketball player Patrick Dennehy was murdered by a teammate, which led to criminal investigations, which led to NCAA investigations, which led to violations and wild allegations on the part of then head coach Dave Bliss. In result, Baylor was placed under probation and the coaching staff was heavily fined. But the mist has scattered and now Baylor finds itself in positive national spotlight. Last year, the Bears finally clicked, winning 21 games and making their first NCAA tournament appearance in 58 years. Now, head coach Scott Drew wants to take Baylor somewhere where they’ve never been: back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances. He’s not the only one who believes it possible either. ESPN preseason polls place Baylor as number 21 in the nation, and the strongest contender in the BIG 12 Conference. With returning starters Tweety Carter, LaceDarius Dunn, Henry Dugat, and Curtis Jerrells, The Baylor Bears seemed poised not only to pick up their first BIG 12 Conference title, they are also a legitimate shot at the NCAA crown. Wouldn’t you want to be part of that as a Bears fan? It’s really simple. Order Baylor Bears basketball tickets online now using our secure server or call us at 866.848.8499.
