MaCio Teague Reflects On Baylor Title Run And Life In Italy

Former Baylor Bears men's basketball standout MaCio Teague joins 365 Sports to relive one of the most dominant championship runs in college basketball history — and share what life looks like now playing professionally overseas. Teague takes you inside Baylor’s unforgettable national title run, including the mindset heading into the championship matchup with Gonzaga, the team’s unshakable confidence, and the stories fans still talk about — including the infamous champagne waiting for Gonzaga that never got opened. He also breaks down the defensive identity that defined that Baylor team, why that group still stays close today, and how their chemistry was built through patience and development before the transfer portal era changed everything. Plus, Teague shares what it’s like living and playing in Italy, why it’s his favorite stop in his pro journey, and his thoughts on the current state of college basketball and Baylor under Scott Drew.
