Is he still considering the good guys? Are we still considering him? Did the Squares commit to the Red Elephants hurt us?

Anyone?

yeah you also got Ater Majok????

Didn't Dunn use to have 5 stars? I saw he only had 4, and was wondering why he dropped or if didn't have 5...

Rivals actually says that Storm is a 3-star and No. 132 overall. But let's not let facts get in the way...

I seem to remember a certain point guard from the 2003 class who was three star and >150 overall. he seemed to work out alright. recruiting rankings aren't everything.

obviously there is something there if he has offers from some other big programs.



and i was talking about Dunn in my previous post.

Melvin Watkins had more success in the Big 12 than Scott Drew. That is sad, Baylor.

I don't even know why Baylor gets all pumped about hoops recruiting when they know damn well the team is going to underperform and downright get embarassed. It sucks for these recruits because you know Drew has gotta be talking out his ass to get them to even consider going to a crappy program like Baylor.

Drew's pulling something out of his ass. It might be cars rather than words though. I know we've had this discussion before, but seriously how does he get these players over and over again. They have to know that Baylor isn't the best school for developing basketball talent.

and A&M was a mecca for basketball development before two years ago.

If drew gives a recruit a stick of gum and gets caught, we would not have a basketball program. I love this board.

another set of rankings posted on this board. he's got the same grade as ya'lls coveted PG commit.

A&M wasn't getting near the number of 4 star recruits and McD All-Americans when they were as bad as Baylor.

baylrballa doesnt seem to understand.


A&M- past 3 years...impresses, goes to the NIT, goes to the dance, goes to the sweet 16. record of 70-26. and one all-american with the highest NBA draft pick in A&M history. this = landing good recruits.


Baylor- 28-48 in the same time frame. and Josh Lomers' awesomeness. this = not impressing recruits.

Thus, it is only natural why we should speculate how you land these guys.


You sir, are a moron.

agreed we need to do something with the talent here soon to keep it going.

Balyrballa, can you name another program in the country that is consistently in the hunt for all the top recruits that has a recent history as bad as Baylor's?

after bu finishes higher that **** this year, i wonder if this board will still say drew is a bad coach? bu almost had the death penalty 2 years ago, and what drew has done there is amazing.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Amen. Anybody that thinks Drew SHOULD have won before this year is just an ignoramous.

Do some damn research.

They should have done just that and done the rest of sports fans, including those from Baylor, a favor.

OK I will. The thing about the "almost" death penalty is that it typically kills your recruiting. Basketball you should be able to put together a solid squad with 3 classes. The thing is, Baylor under Drew did NOT TAKE A RECRUITING HIT AT ALL. So where is the excuse for the records???

Drew's had 4 years of stellar recruiting now. He actually put together a pretty talented team compared to the rest of the Big XII. Of course Baylor fans will make excuses for him...

Year-Previous Rivals Recruiting Rank (Conference)-Conference Finish
2006-7 - 3rd - 11th
2005-6 - 4th - 12th
2004-5 - 4th - 12th
2003-4 - 6th - 11th

I never said Drew was a bad coach or that he should have won anything. I merely said that it is curious that after such a penalty and absolutely no success to build on he recruits the top players in the country and manages to land some of them.

The only three Big XII programs that have had a clear collective higher rated recruiting classes over the past 4 year period are Kansas and Texas and outside of those two Oklahoma State is comparable. Yet after 4 years Baylor has only finished ahead of two TOTAL teams in conference play. You arent concerned about that???

It must be the national attention that Baylor gets.

Maybe it's that they play in a big NBA town providing the recruits added exposure.

Clearly it is not the long term or short term success of the team or having a previously successfull coach.

baylorballess:
I personally wish Coach Drew his continued success in recruiting and on the court. I hope he gets all of those "stars" and coaches them right to the bottom of the Big 12 as he has done to date.

After all, if you are impressed and happy, why should we get in the way?!

If a high recruit doesn't go to A&M but another big 12 school, I'd wish it to be baylor so we don't have to worry about any threats.

It doesn't take this long to turn a program around in basketball. Baylor and Drew suck.
baylrballa
How long do you want to ignore this user?
so two years after a half death penalty is a long time? basically everyone who contributed were still underclassmen last year.

If we only have 4 wins this year, I will start to worry. If we aren't in the NCAAs or really close next year, I will start to worry.

A&M is the normal path taken when turning basketball programs around.
