Baylor is hiring former TCU coach Gary Patterson as a senior consultant to head coach Dave Aranda, a person with direct knowledge of the move told The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal was being finalized. The 63-year-old Patterson was coach at TCU for 22 years before being pushed out during the 2021 season. He went 181-79 while leading the Horned Frogs — the winningest coach in program history. Baylor is coming off a 3-9 season that has raised the pressure on Aranda, who is entering his fifth year as the Bears coach.
