Last weekend left the Baylor sports world reeling. Baylor fired head coach Dave Aranda, leaving plenty of questions throughout the week about what football would look like heading to Orlando. Well … those people got their answer in a high-stakes weekend of Baylor Athletics.

ARTS & LIFE
Halloween is just around the corner with some spooky fun, and more events are coming November when it’s done. For the fear- and fall-focused alike, here are some upcoming events in Waco.
When you love someone, you know it at that moment. Stop spending time thinking about your future and start living it with the person you want to spend the rest of your life with.
While I do not judge and only share happiness for those who choose to pursue relationships or marriages more early on in their lives, to me it seems counterproductive to add yet another factor of attention to an already busy and stressful college world.
When it comes to weddings, everybody wants something different. Some people want traditional, while others don’t. Some people want extravagance, while others want something much more laid back. In many cases, people either can’t afford a wedding or just don’t want one, and there’s no shame in that.
