Baylor's recruiting class is falling apart in the wake of the sexual assault scandal that cost head coach Art Briles his job, as the Bears lost two more recruits Saturday, including highly-touted WR Hezekiah Jones. The 6-0, 195-pounder had been committed since last June.
Earlier in the day, the Bears lost a commitment from Donovan Stiner, a safety.
Those followed the exits of DT Jayden Peevy on Friday and Kedrick James, a blue-chip tight end. Waco, Texas, native Peevy decommitted hours after Briles was fired on Thursday. James had been committed to Baylor since last July.
The Bears' 2017 class, which already was pretty thin with only six commitments coming into last week, now has only two prospects on board -- and many think dual-threat QB Kellen Mond, one of the two remaining commits, could be next to bail. Mond, a San Antonio native who plays at IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida, committed to Baylor last June.
