BREAKING: Baylor to retain Dave Aranda, Bears to make significant staff changes
The Baylor Bears are keeping Dave Aranda as their head football coach for the 2024 season, but expect significant staff changes to be announced shortly.
Baylor is retaining Dave Aranda as its head football coach, sources confirmed to Dave Campbell’s Texas Football. The Bears lost to West Virginia on Saturday to close the season at 3-9. It was the third losing season in four seasons under Aranda. The other was the best season in program history – a 12-win Big 12 championship team that knocked off Ole Miss in the Sugar Bowl.
Aranda was extended through 2029 after that season. Baylor is a private school so it is not obligated to release terms of the contract, but reports suggest the buyout would be over $20 million dollars. He’s 23-25 as the head coach at Baylor. His program is 9-16 overall with a 6-12 record in the Big 12 since the start of 2022.
