Why Scott Drew could leave Baylor. They really wont be in a Power conference in five years

He would still be a hot name at age 56/57 when that happens but the fans of schools that want him now wouldnt be as behind it as they are now with him being 51. At 51 the fans can hope for a 15-20 year run before he retires.
Oh and he is NOT going to UGA ever. He isn't going to Mizzou either but if he is considering those types of jobs Mizzou is far and away above UGA......oh and he was born and raised in Kansas City and his wife is from Missouri too. Again I don't think he is leaving this year, maybe ever.
He would be a homerun hire for anyone especially Mizzou. Home state kid, NC on his resume. He wouldnt get every recruit at Link Year Prep or out of STL but he would get a lot of them and would have Mizzou in said recruits top 5 the moment he offered.

Conference doesn’t matter nearly as much in basketball. Even then, Big 12 will still be fine as a basketball conference. Drew isn’t going anywhere unless maybe one of the blue bloods came calling but even then I don’t see it

He's just using job openings to get a pay raise.

There is a major concern within their fanbase of directing money away from football. They don't have limitless funds compared to who they are competing against in the SEC (they think they do.)

It wouldn't surprise me, just because Georgia has access to plenty of great players. The only question is if they're committed to basketball.

Crean was making 3.5 and would have been bumped up to 4.5 if he made the tourney. People speculate Drew only makes 3-3.5 at Baylor. If UGA committed to basketball and offered him 5 mil… he’d be on the next plane out… And frick milk toast Mizzou… we’ll outbid and get any coach we want IF we’re committed… Mizzou isn’t in the same stratosphere when it comes to athletics.

This is ridiculous. The guy just won a national title right where he is and has one of the top teams again this year.
There's no chance he leaves for Georgia. Good recruiting in Georgia but he's got that where he's at. And that's about it. Georgia is the worst program in the SEC.
That stuff about the basketball program diverting funds from the basketball program is also ridiculous. It's projection. Of the two schools (Baylor and Georgia), Baylor clearly cares more about basketball. Why do I say that? Because despite the fertile recruiting grounds, Georgia has been terrible in basketball as long as I can remember.

Where's all this coming from?
Is it because Mulkey left Baylor for LSU last year? Totally different circumstances with that move.
Like somebody else said, 'power conference' doesn't matter with men's basketball. As long as Kansas is there, the Big 12 has an anchor to the NCAA.

It was not that long ago that this was said about Auburn.

Wouldn't say that it doesn't matter especially when you start seeing more and more separation in terms of revenue from the power conferences.Sure,you can have the occasional Gonzaga and Butler but at some point the finances of the bigger schools are going to be a bigger selling point than it use to be.

Drew needs to stay or go to schools that are committed to basketball.

Butler is in a power basketball conference.
The new Big 12 won’t be anywhere near as bad as Gonzaga’s WCC.

Commitment isn't just about money. Drew can recruit to Baylor and he's appreciated there. Would that be true at Georgia?

The New Big 12 is actually a really good basketball conference. If he leaves it's just because of money. We're paying Beard 5 mil, he's probably trying to get at least that much from another desperate school.

He would be a legend if he wins.

Mizzou has lots of Walmart money too. Bud Walton's daughters, Nancy Laurie and Ann Kroenke, both live in Columbia and have been big boosters. Also, Josh Kroenke, son of Stan and Ann, played hoops at Mizzou on scholarship and now runs the Nuggets. I hear the Laurie's coughed up the Cuonzo buyout, but I know there is plenty left in their tills too!

This is dumb.
New Big 12 will still be good in hoops.
Conferences don’t mean much in hoops. Mid-majors have thrived for a long time. The Big East is loaded, WCC is good for 2 bids a year, household names took root in Butler, Wichita, Memphis, now Loyola. The list is long. If Drew wants a new challenge, great, but if he’s leaving Baylor for some shite program like Georgia because he’s afraid of non-P5 status, he deserves to lose.
