Dylan Mingo, a top-10 recruit in the Class of 2026 who decommitted from North Carolina after its coaching change, will play for Baylor next season.
Mingo joins his brother Kayden Mingo, a fellow guard who transferred from Penn State to Baylor earlier this month.
Dylan Mingo committed to the Tar Heels in February while the program was still led by Hubert Davis. North Carolina fired the head coach after the team's first-round NCAA Tournament loss to 11th-seeded VCU, in which the Tar Heels squandered a 19-point lead.
The younger Mingo -- a combo guard ranked No. 6 overall in his class by the 247Sports Composite -- decommitted earlier this month after North Carolina hired ex-Denver Nuggets head coach Michael Malone.
Mingo averaged 23.8 points, 6.5 rebounds and 6.8 assists on his way to earning MVP recognition at the NBA Top 100 Camp last summer, according to ESPN.
'Playing with my brother Kayden is a big plus. It is a blessing to play with him again,' he told ESPN in part.
Kayden Mingo, a top-40 recruit in the 2025 class, had a standout freshman campaign at Penn State. He averaged 13.7 points, 4.3 assists, 3.5 rebounds and a Big Ten-best 2.1 steals per game in 28 appearances, all starts.
