Locked in. 🔒 ​From the trenches to the classroom, @CoachQTinsley keeps the standard high for the Bears. If you want to be developed as a dominant defensive lineman and a complete student-athlete, UPIKE is the place to be. 🐻🏈 ​#BearDown #UPIKE #BearRaid

Excited to receive an offer from HC @RandyBandelow to play football for @Rocky_Football! And thank you coach @samfguest and the Rocky coaching staff for showing my family and I around campus today.

Pikeville TE Grant Scott (@grant1scott) put together the best season of his career in 2025, earning Third Team NAIA All-American honors. The Pikeville native emerged as a reliable weapon for the Bears, hauling in 34 receptions for 478 yards and 3 TDs. Scott has an opportunity to post even bigger numbers in 2026. #NAIAFB #BearDown #ProudToBeAAC #BearRaid
