Article Review- Baylor's Top five team

Summary: 

This article is about Baylor's basketball team. They are ranked number three in the nation and the author of the article emphasized that they were able to do this without any of the top recruits in the nation. 

Argument:

The author wants to argue that Baylor is not a force to be reckoned with, they might not have the best recruits in the nation but they have beaten some great teams and have been able to prove themselves worthy of hanging with teams, such as KU, and other teams that get many top recruits. The evidence he uses to support this claim is all the teams that Baylor has beat thus far, and where the players have came from (Junior college and D1 transfers, along with underrated high school players). 

Thoughts:

I thought that the author did a good job expressing his ideas without having to write a long story. I thought it was very effective for how brief it was. 

A weakness could be that he could include more information, but I think he did a good job getting his idea out, and making it a brief and simple article. 

Critique:

The authors argument does support his main points, the Baylor Bears were very underrated and have proven that they don't need the top recruits in the nation to be at top five team. The evidence is convincing, it does show that they don't just pull from the top players, but have a variety of talent coming from all over the place. The author could've gone more in-depth into how they have been able to win the games that they have, but I think overall he accomplished his goal.
