I think some recruits really buy into being a "program changer", and I imagine some coaches (i.e. Drew) are really good at selling that.
While all along Baylor remains unchanged and stuck in neutral.
I don't know about that.
Drew managed (innocent, until proven guilty...) to at least put a competitive team on the court, and brought in a good bit of talent. What he's done at Baylor is pretty impressive.
They're still same ol Baylor to me and will remain that till they can beat us.I don't know about that.

You wouldn't be the only one to think that. I have heard it from several different recruiting guys. UCONN and Baylor are the names most often brought up.

Is it really that hard to see why good guards would want to go there? They pretty much have the freedom to run/shoot as much/often as they want, all the while, playing little to no defense. Couple that with a just about guaranteed starting spot, something few teams could probably offer at this point, and it makes sense. Not every basketball player wants to go to the best program, or the team that is going to be better the following year.
Drew needs to find an assistant coach who can actually come in and be the X's and O's guy. With Drew's recruiting and an actual coach Baylor could be dangerous.

That should be a nice team. Very athletic in the post, and can really shoot from the outside.
