http://www.yardbarker.com/colleges/baylor_bears/52 Recent articles about Baylor Bears en-us Baylor Bears head coach Art Briles knows how to utilize Twitter.  On Monday, he tweeted out his congratulations to two former Baylor cheerleaders that made the final round of the Dallas Cowboys cheerleading tryouts.  If you think high school football players aren’t paying attention to how attractive the cheerleaders/girls at Baylor are, then you are sadly mistaken.  Well done, Coach Briles.

However, after Isaiah Austin and Cory Jefferson both opted to return to school, suddenly there wasn’t a lot of space in Baylor’s front court. So It appears Woodson has had second thoughts and de-committed from Baylor. So what next for the 6-9, 245 center? I don’t know, but that doesn’t mean I can’t speculate. The way I see it, you got a guy considering two girls to take to prom. After picking one, he soon breaks up with her, thus logic says that other girl would be the top choice. Who was Woodson’s other possible prom date? According to Scout.com, it was NC State:  “I have two schools left and I’m going to make my decision pretty soon,” Woodson said. “I’m down to NC State and Baylor. I took visits to both of them. I just got back from Baylor this weekend.” Obviously this is college recruiting, which usually means, we take logic and shove it head first out a ten-story window, bu Tue, 21 May 2013 08:40:52 -0400 http://network.yardbarker.com/college_basketball/article_external/would_dominic_woodson_reconsider_nc_state/13661482 http://network.yardbarker.com/college_basketball/article_external/would_dominic_woodson_reconsider_nc_state/13661482 Would Dominic Woodson Reconsider NC State? http://www.yardbarker.com/college_basketball/articles/would_dominic_woodson_reconsider_nc_state/13661482 http://www.yardbarker.com/media/7/e/7e5d5a9bff3e4bad300cddf85ba40f3c65660e56/mini/6770676.jpg Mizzou basketball landed yet another big name transfer today with the addition of former Baylor forward Deuce Bello. Terez Paylor confirmed the news on Twitter today. Just got off the phone with former Baylor SF Deuce Bello. As @gabedearmond first reported, Bello has decided to transfer to #Mizzou. — Terez A. Paylor (@TerezPaylor) May 20, 2013 Bello will have to sit out next year before he is eligible to play for the 2014-15 season. Tigers coach Frank Haith will most likely look for an immediate impact out of Bello, who was a four-star prospect and ranked as one of the top forwards in the nation coming out of high school. Bello was never able to become much of a contributor with the Bears, averaging just over 10 minutes per game in his first two seasons. He committed to Baylor along with his high school teammate Quincy Miller, but it was Miller who became a star, not Bello. At the end of this past season, Bello decided to transfer to a school where he could get more playing time. I...

Griner also happens to be gay, which she publicly revealed in an interview with SI.com in April.Now, a new report has surfaced regarding Griner coming out to the public. The WNBA's No. 1 overall pick reportedly told ESPN.com that she was instructed by Bears head coach Kim Mulkey to keep her sexuality private because Mulkey believed it would hurt recruiting.“It was a recruiting thing,” Griner said during an interview with ESPN The Magazine and espnW. “The coaches thought that if it seemed like they condoned it, people wouldn’t let their kids come play for Baylor.”"It was more of a unwritten law [to not discuss your sexuality] ... it was just kind of, like, one of those things, you know, just don't do it," Griner said Friday.

After finally becoming a starter, Jefferson led the Big 12 Conference making 61 percent of his field goals (191 of 313) for the NIT champion Bears. He was 11th in the league with 13.3 points a game and fourth with 8.0 rebounds while starting all 37 games. Jefferson started only one of his first 55 games.

Chery, a 6-foot guard who played the past two seasons at State Fair Community College in Missouri, signed Wednesday. Three post players signed with the Bears during the early period in November. Chery, from Canada, averaged 16.4 points, 4.7 rebounds and 3.7 assists in 26 games last season, when he made 45 percent of his 3-pointers. Baylor's point guard this season was senior Pierre Jackson, an All-Big 12 pick and the league's top scorer at 19.8 points a game. Jackson was a junior college transfer when he joined the Bears two years ago.

Along with Lebby, coach Art Briles has also tweeted pictures of the new helmets and uniforms, and they look good. The traditional green top, gold bottom uniform looks almost the same as previous seasons and the new all-white uniforms have minor changes to the tops, but it is the all-black uniforms with gold chrome helmets that are the boldest of the new uniforms.

And if a photo of a male women’s college basketball coach getting all handsy with a female women’s basketball coach’s posterior wasn’t newsworthy enough, the manner in which Auriemma explained the butt-pat following the game adds an additional layer of amusement to the already-excellent story.   As reported by the Connecticut Post’s Rich Elliott (via The Dagger): “She was staring at my butt and she was commenting on it and I said, ‘Really? How about yours?’ and she went, `Yeah, look at it,’ and I went (slap), I’ll teach you a lesson,’’ Auriemma said, jokingly. `And then she started talking about how Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:40:23 -0500 http://network.yardbarker.com/college_basketball_w/article_external/geno_auriemma_pats_baylor_coach_kim_mulkeys_butt_and_its_all_good_photo/12948796 http://network.yardbarker.com/college_basketball_w/article_external/geno_auriemma_pats_baylor_coach_kim_mulkeys_butt_and_its_all_good_photo/12948796 Geno Auriemma pats Baylor coach Kim Mulkey’s butt and it’s all good (photo) http://www.yardbarker.com/college_basketball_w/articles/geno_auriemma_pats_baylor_coach_kim_mulkeys_butt_and_its_all_good_photo/12948796 http://www.yardbarker.com/media/a/4/a4304ac231a1b276d33bf9a575858ede0cfea7ec/mini/2008-women-final-stanford.jpg
