His protege is Dave Aranda, who ironically fired him.

Aranda had to. Baylor had a massive drop-off this year compared to last (when they won the Big-12). And Roberts ran their (very good) defense last year.

Aranda fired him because it's what head coaches do to shift blame and/or make it look like they're "doing something." The public is impatient and wants people fired even if there is no good reason to do so.
