Scott Drew has decided to stay at Baylor, turning down interest from Kentucky after emerging as that school’s top target to replace John Calipari.
Drew, who won a national title at Baylor in 2021, has a close relationship with Kentucky athletic director Mitch Barnhart but ultimately decided to stay at Baylor, where he has coached for 21 years and gone 446-244. He confirmed his plan to remain the Bears coach in a statement Thursday.
