2023 4-star LB Isaiah Crawford decommits from Baylor

Post (Texas) four-star Isaiah Crawford decommitted Tuesday from Baylor.

“I want to thank all of the Baylor staff for believing in me and giving me a chance at the next level,” Crawford tweeted. “After talking with my family, I will be decommiting from Baylor. My recruitment is 100% open!”

Crawford was recruited by former Baylor assistant coach and newly-hired Texas Tech head coach Joey McGuire.

McGuire was hired Monday by the Red Raiders and immediately started recruiting. On his first day on the job, he extended multiple offers and snagged three commits — all from his old stomping ground of Cedar Hill (Texas) High.

Texas Tech had offered Crawford before McGuire was hired.
