I can’t think of a story quite this unusual. Makai Mason dropped 31 points on Baylor as Yale upset the No. 5 seed Bears in the 2016 NCAA Tournament. With only one season of eligibility remaining at Yale but two seasons of eligibility remaining to play NCAA basketball, he’ll play the 2018-2019 season for the Bears.
Baylor basketball always has a few stories repeated ad nauseam by ESPN, so expect to hear that tale recounted as often as we heard Tweety Carter played varsity basketball as a seventh grader, Rico Gathers didn’t lift a weight until college and Jake Lindsey is the son of a general manager.
