Entering the 2009-2010 season, the Bears were picked 10th in the Big 12. The voters had a number of concerns, but the primary worry was about how Baylor could replace Curtis Jerrells at point guard.
The Bears entered this season without any votes in the A.P. Top 25 for the first time since 2009-2010. Although many were concerned about the loss of Rico Gathers and Taurean Prince, these Bears faced questions about how the team would replace Lester Medford at point guard. Through three games, Manu Lecomte has shown a lot to remind Baylor fans of Tweety Carter.
