SHOCKER: Baylor Has NEW Dave Aranda REPLACEMENT Target? Zach Kittley DESTROYS Jeff Traylor's UTSA!

Locked On Podcast Network — Fri, 06 Nov 2026 18:00:00 GMT

Zach Kittley shakes up the Baylor Bears coaching search after FAU’s explosive 60-29 win over Jeff Traylor’s UTSA Roadrunners. Could Kittley’s Air Raid offense and Texas roots make him the front-runner for Baylor’s head coach vacancy? Cam Stuart breaks down Kittley’s soaring stock, FAU’s bowl eligibility, and the jaw-dropping performance of receiver Easton Messer—whose three touchdown catches and one passing TD have fans comparing him to the nation’s elite.

The conversation focused on how Kittley’s offensive prowess at Western Kentucky, Texas Tech, and now FAU positions him as a surefire candidate for top jobs, while Jeff Traylor’s lopsided loss complicates his own candidacy. Key themes include the importance of Texas ties, offensive innovation, and whether Baylor should also consider defensive-minded coaches for Big 12 success. As homecoming weekend kicks off, Baylor fans are left wondering: Will Kittley or Traylor lead the Bears into the future?

REVEALED: Joe Klanderman Has PASSED Dave Aranda In CRUCIAL Area - Fans OVERREACTING to UCF Win?

Locked On Podcast Network — Fri, 06 Nov 2026 09:00:00 GMT

Baylor Bears fans rally around interim coach Joe Klanderman as the team eyes a pivotal matchup against Iowa State—could this be a turning point in the Big 12 championship race? The conversation focused on Baylor’s struggles with slow starts during Dave Aranda’s tenure and identified key advantages the Bears hold, particularly a stout defense ranked 12th nationally. Iowa State’s vulnerable offensive line and low-scoring output against top defenses present a golden opportunity for Baylor to make a statement and spark a potential late-season surge.

A key theme that emerged was the refreshing change in sideline communication and leadership under Klanderman, with special attention to the offensive line’s "get-right game" potential against Iowa State’s league-worst pass rush. The discussion explored possible outcomes if Baylor capitalizes on these advantages, plus speculation about Dave Aranda’s quick SEC return with LSU in an analyst role. Can Baylor seize momentum and set the stage for a postseason run?

SHOCK: RGIII A Legitimate THREAT to REPLACE Dave Aranda? Russell Wilson & NC State Changes It ALL!

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 05 Nov 2026 09:00:00 GMT

RG3 shocks Baylor fans as a legitimate candidate to replace Dave Aranda—could Heisman history return to Waco? The conversation focused on how recent coaching searches are rewriting the rules, referencing NC State’s bold interviews with Russell Wilson and Philip Rivers. The discussion explored the modern appeal of hiring star alumni directly from the field or analyst booth, drawing parallels with Deion Sanders’ route and the potential “Flutie effect” for the Baylor Bears if RG3 returns.

A key theme that emerged was Big 12 power dynamics in the latest College Football Playoff rankings. Several points were raised, including Texas Tech’s puzzling drop despite a win, BYU’s top-10 status, and whether Notre Dame should consider Big 12 expansion for better playoff prospects. The episode closed with an in-depth look at Jay Hill as a sleeper pick for Baylor’s next head coach—his defensive success at BYU and recruiting prowess could reshape the Bears’ future in the Big 12.

BIG 12 SQUAD - Recapping Big 12 Week 9 CHAOS | What happened with Baylor?

Locked On Podcast Network — Wed, 04 Nov 2026 22:00:00 GMT

BYU football sparks controversy as officiating decisions leave rivals questioning fairness—are the Cougars truly benefiting from Big 12 referees, or is this just another symptom of inconsistent officiating across the conference? Heated debates erupt around BYU’s nail-biting wins, replay booth decisions, and the program’s apparent inability to break away from one-score games. Baylor’s late-season surge, highlighted by dominant performances and a tough upcoming schedule, throws the Big 12 race into chaos. Can the Bears defy the odds and capture the conference title despite early setbacks?

The conversation focused on Oklahoma State’s defensive woes, the value of NIL spending on trenches instead of skill positions, and whether new commissioner leadership can fix the league’s officiating crisis. Brett Yormark’s legacy comes under fire, from the infamous Monster Energy sponsorship and glass basketball courts to his pivotal media rights deal and expansion moves that shaped the modern Big 12. Which moves will define the future of the conference?

UNCOVERED: DJ Lagway ACCUSED Of Being Coach Killer - It's the DUMBEST Narrative in College Football?

Locked On Podcast Network — Wed, 04 Nov 2026 09:00:00 GMT

DJ Lagway faces unfair blame for Baylor Bears’ coaching changes as wild fan theories swirl—should quarterbacks shoulder so much scrutiny in college football? The conversation focused on Lagway’s journey, recent standout performances, and the narrative linking his presence to the firings of Dave Aranda and Billy Napier. A key theme that emerged was the immense pressure on high-profile quarterbacks in the NCAA era of multimillion-dollar NIL deals.

The discussion explored the chaotic Big 12 landscape with Texas Tech and Iowa State earning “winners” nods and Kansas State and UCF landing among the “losers” after disappointing showings. Looking ahead, potential Dave Aranda replacements are debated—including dream candidate Dabo Swinney and rising favorite Jeff Traylor from UTSA—highlighting the importance of program culture, Texas recruiting ties, and coaching energy. Can Baylor land a transformative head coach to spark a turnaround before their next gridiron battle?

STUNNING: College Football LEGENDS Would LOVE Baylor Coaching Job - They Should REJECT Dabo & Gundy?

Locked On Podcast Network — Fri, 30 Oct 2026 08:00:00 GMT

Baylor Bears face a pivotal coaching crossroads: Should the program turn to Hall of Fame-caliber legends like Mike Gundy, Gary Patterson, or potentially Dabo Swinney if he becomes available? The conversation focused on whether Baylor should resist the allure of established names who haven’t adapted to NIL and the transfer portal era, emphasizing the need for forward-thinking leadership and questioning if these icons are fit for modern college football.

The discussion explored alternative candidates, including Navy’s Brian Newberry—an intriguing Baylor alumnus with a strong track record but currently mired in a challenging season. Several points were raised, including why the Bears’ fanbase should watch Notre Dame vs. Navy, Baylor’s path back to relevance, and expectations for interim head coach Joe Klanderman as the team travels to face UCF.

CONTROVERSY: Baylor Is WRONG About Coaching Search, Need To RAID Kyle Whittingham's Michigan Staff?

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 29 Oct 2026 08:00:00 GMT

Baylor Bears’ coaching search could be their biggest obstacle to a football resurgence. Are Texas ties and offense-first resumes limiting Baylor’s true potential in the Big 12?

The discussion explored underrated coordinator candidates like LSU’s Charlie Weis Jr. and Miami’s Shannon Dawson, questioning if past missteps with Dave Aranda should deter Baylor from hiring a rising coordinator. Several points were raised, including Jeff Traylor remaining the Bears’ top target despite public statements of loyalty to UTSA. As fan debate swirls about expanding the search to both defense and up-and-coming offensive minds, the episode asks: Will Baylor adapt its approach, or let opportunity pass by again?

BYU's Path to Redemption, Utah's Wild Rise, Mike Gundy Wants Baylor Job

Locked On Podcast Network — Mon, 26 Oct 2026 13:00:00 GMT

With Dave Aranda officially out in Waco, Baylor Athletic Director Doug McNamee faces a defining choice for the future of the program. Moving past Aranda’s quiet, analytical tenure demands a clear shift in direction—and bringing in Mike Gundy would instantly reshape the culture at McLane Stadium.

Gundy’s head coaching profile in the Big 12 speaks for itself. Over two decades at Oklahoma State, he established a baseline of consistency, toughness, and offensive firepower. His teams were defined by developmental discipline, routinely turning unheralded recruits into high-level college starters and NFL draft picks. For a Baylor program looking to regain an edge in a wide-open, expanded conference, Gundy’s track record of winning 160-plus games in this specific league offers an undeniable floor of stability.

However, the fit presents obvious complexities. Gundy spent his entire head coaching life in Stillwater, rooted in a specific operational style. Adapting to Waco’s administration, modern roster building, and NIL landscape would require seamless alignment with local decision-makers. Furthermore, after a turbulent end to his tenure at Oklahoma State, questions remain about how his high-profile personality would mesh with Baylor’s institutional priorities.

Still, from a purely football standpoint, the logic is sound. Aranda’s cerebral approach often lacked the edge needed during high-stress Big 12 Saturdays. Gundy brings a proven scheme, an established recruiting footprint across Texas, and a history of competing for conference titles.

If Baylor prioritizes immediate, battle-tested leadership over taking a gamble on an unproven coordinator, making a run at Gundy would send a clear message: the Bears are ready to re-establish themselves as a weekly heavyweight in the Big 12.
