Gary Franklin is transferring to Baylor.

Franklin, a highly touted recruit out of Mater Dei High School in Los Angeles, left Cal last week after playing just 13 games for Mike Montgomery and the Bears.

He must sit out the spring and fall semesters this year and will be eligible to take the floor for Baylor the second semester of the 2011-12 season.

"Gary has been a winner all of his life," Baylor coach Scott Drew said in a released statement Wednesday night. "We are extremely excited to have him part of the Baylor family."

Franklin Wants Better Chance At NBA

Jan 9, 2011 10:25 AM

Gary Franklin informed Cal earlier this week that he intends to transfer.

“He has dreams to play in the NBA and doesn’t feel like he’ll be able to do it here,” coach Mike Montgomery told the San Jose Mercury News.

Franklin was starting for the Golden Bears, but he didn't feel as though he was being groomed for an NBA career.

Montgomery said Franklin told him he needed to play point guard to enhance his chances of playing at the next level.

He was averaging 8.2 points on 29.7 percent shooting as a two-guard.
