Michael C. Johnson-USA TODAY Sports No Mi Casita this time This morning it was reported that Baylor’s co-associate head coach Alvin Brooks III would be leaving to become the associate head coach on Mark Pope’s staff at Kentucky. This news comes after Kentucky tried and failed to hire Scott Drew for their head coaching vacancy and after other members of Drew’s staff left including the other co-associate head coach, John Jakus, who is now the head coach at Florida Atlantic. Vacancies left by Bill Peterson (special assistant to the head coach; 7 seasons with the program) and Luke Simons (director ..read more

John David Mercer-USA TODAY Sports Drew is back, but there’s more work to be done. Last week was a roller coaster of emotions filled with tweets, Tex-Mex, flight trackers, Chip Gains trash talk, and culminating with Scott Drew turning down Kentucky to remain Baylor’s head coach. Now the question is, where does the men’s basketball program go from here this offseason? We know that freshmen phenoms Ja’Kobe Walter and Yves Missi have already declared for the NBA draft. We know that Caleb Lohner has entered the transfer portal. RayJ Dennis and Jalen Bridges are also almost certainly moving on to t ..read more

John David Mercer-USA TODAY Sports Drew apparently prefers green and gold in his blood to blue. There’s a nigh apocryphal story that runs around Baylor circles about the first interview of a (then) 33-year-old Scott Drew for the head men’s basketball coaching job at Baylor University in 2003 that people close to him said he shouldn’t even want. He got that job, leading to an introductory press conference where he stated his goal to win a national championship at a program coming off one of the worst scandals in college sports history. That was nearly 21 years ago, and in the meantime, he pulle ..read more
