🏈 A CELEBRATION LIKE NO OTHER

We are a week away from the Kinder’s Texas Bowl in Houston, but for the Baylor football program, the celebration already begun.

This past weekend, the Bears had a celebration like no other as five members of the BU family went public with their faith and were baptized in front of their teammates.

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Buy Stock Now. Yes, that is former BU star Yves Missi introducing himself to three-time NBA MVP Nikola Jokic.

Three months into his first NBA season, Missi is getting more and more comfortable, pouring in 21 points and grabbing nine rebounds against the Nuggets on Sunday night.

In 10 games this December, the former Bear is averaging 12.6 points and 10.6 rebounds per outing for the Pelicans.

🔼 Making An Impact. Earlier this month, two former BU standouts were recognized by their organizations as the Walter Payton Man of the Year nominee for their team with Andrew Billings (Bears) and Jalen Pitre (Texans).
