The day is almost here.
Former Lady Bears legend Brittney Griner is getting her jersey retired, and boy is it a long time coming. Students on campus — including me — didn’t have the luxury of watching the 6-foot-9 forward feast on Baylor’s opposition, but it doesn’t take more than a simple Google search to know this honor is no shocker.
If someone put together a “Greatest Baylor Athletes Mount Rushmore,” Griner might have the biggest head. Sure, Heisman-Trophy-winning Robert Griffin III or four-time Olympic gold medalist Michael Johnson are no slouches.
