You Stay Classy, Scott Drew

Ohio's Cooper Has Seen the Dark Side - NYTimes.com


Both Cooper and his high school coach, Brandon Thomas, declined to name the programs trying to poach him. Recruiting a player before he is released from his current program is against N.C.A.A. rules. Cooper’s mother, Dionne, identified Baylor Coach Scott Drew as someone who attempted to lure her son from Ohio.

“He wasn’t necessarily calling and saying, ‘Come on over,’ †she said. “He would say: ‘Oh, this is great. I knew you could do it. The exposure you’re getting now, you’re not getting it in the MAC because you’re not on TV.’ He was really trying to sell to me. ‘We know you can do these things, but because of where you are, you’re not getting the attention you deserve.’ †(Drew did not return a text message seeking comment.)

So your telling me Scott Drew took a disturbing and absolutely horrible basketball team, managed to get the top players in the country, and cheated while doing this? No way

Yep. As soon as this is linked on BaylorFans we'll be inundated again.

Wait. Am I to believe that even college basketball has a seedy underbelly?

On a more serious note, maybe this will be the story that leads to a little more scrutiny down there.

Get it done! Let's get this party started!


Let me fill in for a moment: You guys act all high and mighty. This is just a newspaper article. It doesn't prove anything. And you're naive if you think that your coach Fred Hoiberg isn't texting players from all over the country.

Scott Drew left me a voicemail denying Dionne Cooper's quotess. "I know for a fact, a fact that it did not happen. A 100-percent fact."

Well that settles it then he said "fact" 3 times. Works just like "there's no place like home".
