Baylor men’s basketball head coach Scott Drew will officially stay with the Bears and not take the Kentucky job.
Alex Garland’s newest movie, “Civil War,” debuted this week, and it follows a group of journalists in the midst of a new American domestic conflict. The movie is very technically impressive, but it leaves much to be desired in its story.
With Kentucky being one of the few jobs he might have considered over Baylor, his decision to stay here is clearly impactful. With two opportunities to leave the coaching job and take on roles at either Louisville or Kentucky, I think it’s almost safe to say that Drew is here to stay for the long run.
Students are invited to nominate a faculty or staff member who has made an impact on them both in and out of the classroom for Phi Kappa Chi’s Light Your World Award Banquet. The nomination form closes at midnight on April 15.
