Morgantown, West Virginia – Former West Virginia Mountaineers forward and Fairmont, West Virginia native, Jalen Bridges, has been heavily pursued by several major programs since entering the transfer portal last month.
Bridges, who averaged 8.4 points and 4.8 rebounds per game for West Virginia last season, has already taken official visits to Ohio State and Alabama, and today, he’s in Waco, Texas visiting the campus of the Baylor Bears, a Big 12 rival of the Mountaineers.
Although Michigan State was considered an early favorite, Baylor’s head coach Scott Drew met Bridges in West Virginia for an in-home visit last week and now Bridges is visiting the Baylor campus.
If Bridges picks Baylor, or any team in the Big 12 Conference, imagine the Coliseum’s reaction when his new team takes the court for the first time against the Mountaineers!
