INDIANAPOLIS â Somebody will do a joyful Texas two-step after Baylor and Houston meet today in the Final Four.
It could be Bears coach Scott Drew, who built his now-mighty program from the ashes of one of the worst scandals in college basketball history. Led by guards Jared Butler, Davion Mitchell and MaCio Teague, Baylor has rolled to its first national semifinal since 1950.
Or it could be Cougars coach Kelvin Sampson, who has spent more than a decade trying to outrun the âcheaterâ label hung from his neck during his days at Oklahoma and Indiana. He might finally have done it with this Houston team thatâs a mish-mash of overlooked prospects and transfers who have fans fondly recalling the days of Phi Slama Jama.
