Only Solution for Baylor University—Dump “Big-Time” Sports

One of the things you hear about Southern Baptists is that dancing is verboten. As some Southern Baptists have explained, Jesus isn’t seen dancing in the Bible.

Besides, with dancing, things can get dirty on the dance floor, and that leads to sins like lust and greed, and, of course, all that is derived from—big-time college football.

At least, that’s what we’ve come to know recently about beleaguered Baylor University, the largest Baptist university in the world and touted as the oldest continuous running university in Texas.

It’s stumbling now and needs to right itself.

But I have a solution.

As far as I know, despite the mural at Notre Dame of the so-called “Touchdown Jesus,” Jesus has never been known biblically to run a spread offense.

So it seems like there’s one easy way out of the entangled mess Baylor finds itself in over its failure to implement Title IX standards throughout the university.
