"It was amazing," said Isaiah Austin. "I knew I ha a family at Baylor...they gave me my scholarship back so I can continue my degree."

Isaiah Austin has two more years left of school before he graduates with his Business BA. Baylor University also offered him an assistant coaching job for the varsity basketball team, which Austin is "considering."

"I want to remain around basketball as much as I can," stated Austin.

He is also "weighing out options" in broadcasting at NBA Sports and Bleacher Report.

"I like all sports, not just basketball, and if I am connected wit TV...I will be able to connect with all sports," stated Austin.
