Just saw that Cal freshman guard Franklin is transferring to Baylor. What's Scott Drew doing in Waco? I live in the Bay Area and we were confused when a CA player who's starting and getting tons of playing time on a team with a short bench decides to leave the state and go to......Waco??
At this point, we can only speculate. However, being the cynical sort, I would answer, "Give it time. You'll have your answer eventually."
I saw Jon Wall at a hotel in Waco couple years back. Remember thinking as I left the hotel how terrible Waco was. And wondering why on Earth he would even consider coming to a tradition poor school like Baylor in Waco. Then he signed with Kentucky and Calipari and I had my answer.
Gemstate +2. Maybe a bit of 'gotcha' down the YellowGreen Road. Their basketball program has had an odor for years, going back to Bliss. Sooner or later..............
Until we get some substantial evidence, we'll have about 4 threads like this one every year. I'd love to pick Rick Barnes's brain when he's done in the future about things Drew said to recruits about Texas.
