Baylor early-enrollee Tren'Davian Dickson wants to transfer
Here's another member of Baylor's 2016 recruiting class who no longer wants to be a member of the team.
Tren'Davian Dickson, who enrolled at the school in January, has told the university he wants to transfer. The news of his transfer was first reported by 24/7 Sports.
Dickson was a four-star wide receiver in the class of 2016. He was the No. 24 wide receiver in the country and considered the No. 16 prospect in the state of Texas, according to Rivals.

Unlike other recruits who would like to get out of their National Letters of Intent with Baylor, Dickson is at a bit of a disadvantage since he already enrolled at the school. If he transfers, he has to sit out the 2016 season and since he's a transfer, Baylor could give him restrictions on that transfer. Dickson is also the first publicly-known player currently on the team to officially request a transfer.
Seven Baylor signees previously asked for their releases from their NLIs including four-star wide receiver Devin Duvarney and his brother Donovan. Baylor may not be acquiescing to their demands, however. When asked about the players that were reconsidering their commitments to Baylor in the wake of the sexual assault scandal at the university, acting coach Jim Grobe said the school was going to act within "NCAA guidelines" and that he didn't want them making rash decisions.
