Baylor’s coaching staff is canvassing the state of Texas and other parts of the country for the future of the program. The Bears have four commitments for the 2024 at this point.
But with offers extended for the current list of the 2024 class, here are the best bets to commit.
QB: Unknown. To this point, the Bears have offered eight and seven have committed elsewhere. And they’re not a player for the nation’s No. 1 player, QB Dylan Raiola. They haven’t offered Northwest Eaton’s Noah Lugo yet but if they did, he would be a candidate. Baylor could go portal here as well.
RB: Kewan Lacy & Harry Stewart III. Lacy has gained a lot of attention of the last couple of months and his spring could change for the better. He already has an Alabama offer. But the Bears are still in this. Stewart probably has the strongest chance. From what we understand, he’s working on an OV.
WR: Tre Griffiths. The Keller product has made multiple trips to Baylor and seems to gel with BU wide receivers coach Dallas Baker well. Would like to feel better about their chances with Fort Bend Ridge Point Ashton Bethel-Roman. But I’m back and forth on their chances.
OL/TE: Really like where Baylor is with Scottsdale (AZ) Dillon Hipp and of course, China Spring’s Greydon Grimes, son of Baylor OC Jeff Grimes. Hipp has his OV set for June 23-25. As for the OL, that’s a good question. Obviously, they have the committed Colton Sieracki from The Woodlands. But there’s some work to do here. If they get an OV from Lindale’s Casey Poe, that helps.
DL: Jaylin Jones. The Beaumont Westbrook standout is having a good rating service camp season. But Baylor did good to get him to come up to the spring game. They seem to be gaining some momentum with Pearland Dawson’s Edward Smith. Their urgency is not as heightened with the spring transfer portal additions of Utah State’s Byron Vaughns and Oregon’s Treven Ma’ae.
LB: The Bears are pretty solid here with the commitments of Lumberton’s Brock Jackson and DeSoto’s Brandon Booker. They are working hard on Red Oak’s Zach Smith and watch them with Draper (UT) Bo Tate.
CB/S: There’s no doubt a need to upgrade. And Baylor could be more inclined to go portal here. But they have some equity built in with Converse Judson safety Myles Davis. There is some momentum with Fort Bend Marshall’s Joshua Lair. Keep an eye out for them with Huntsville CB Isaiah Collins. Some of this could depend if they can secure Utah State safety transfer Ajani Carter’s commitment following this past weekend’s visit.
