Tyrone Jamison Jr., the No. 38 overall recruit in the national 2027 class, announced his commitment to Baylor on the CBS Sports College Basketball Youtube channel. The 6-foot-1 guard from Shreveport (La.) Calvary Baptist chose the Bears out of a final six list that also included Iowa, LSU, Miami, Oklahoma and USC.
“I like relationship I built with Scott Drew and how all the coaches on their staff came after me hard,” Jamison said. “They made a group chat that included every coach along with me and my parents. I took my visit after Peach Jam and everybody is connected from the players to the managers. It just felt like family.
Drew has a proven track record of developing guards into NBA talent. With Jared Butler, Davion Mitchell and Keyonte George all reaching the NBA in recent years, Baylor’s track record is something Jamison values.
“Coach Drew produces guards in the NBA,” Jamison said. “He has a pedigree with guards. I also love the academics and the winning tradition.”
With Jamison on board, Drew has secured his first commitment in the class of 2027. As he looks ahead to his future in Waco, Texas, Jamison said that his goal is to improve every day and do whatever he can to help Baylor win.
“The program is getting a winner,” Jamison said. “I am an all-around winner who will do whatever it takes to win and wants to get better every day.”
