Sports Take: MBB will pose threat next season

By Gio Gennero | Sports Writer

I know this current Baylor men’s basketball season didn’t pan out and the team never quite felt the same as the national championship squad, but don’t count them out for next season just yet. With the return of key players and incoming players, the Bears are looking like a potentially dangerous team.

Let’s not forget, Baylor won the Big 12 regular season title, earned a No. 1 seed in the tournament and still has reigning Big 12 Coach of the Year Scott Drew. Losing senior guard James Akinjo and freshman forward Kendall Brown is a big loss, but I believe we have the pieces to step up in their absence.
