honored the 90th anniversary of the 1927 Immortal Ten team on Tuesday night as the Bears faced Texas.
The new Eternal Flame sculpture welcomed fans to the Ferrell Center, and 10 seats were left empty inside in honor of the 10 students. Players wore a special t-shirt during warm-ups (which was given to the first 750 students in attendance and available for all to purchase), and wore temporary nameplates on their jerseys identifying members of the Immortal Ten.
Baylor's 1927 men's basketball season was canceled after the team bus was hit by a train while traveling to Austin for a game, killing 10 of 22 players, coaches and fans in the Baylor travel party.
