One Bear fell out while the other stayed in.
on Wednesday. Baylor will take on Minnesota in hopes of finishing its disappointing season on a high note, but either way, the Bears are already looking toward next season and how they are going to construct their roster.
to a two-year deal, but the Bears will be waiting for word on both Cameron Carr and Tounde Yessoufou to see what they decide to do. Both players have been projected first-round picks in recent mock drafts, but Yessoufou's stock appears to be dropping., he is nowhere to be seen. As for Carr, he is projected to go No. 22 overall to the Detroit Pistons. Carr is still raw, but he has shown elite traits of being able to create his own shot, along with his excellent athleticism.

From there, you can base and judge what you want to do as far as workouts, draft combines, declare or not declare. "So, it's all a process and right now, the number one process is finish the season and hopefully win a championship, play well and improve everybody's stock."Trent is the Publisher of Baylor Bears on SI and also serves as the Managing Editor for Michigan Wolverines on SI.
