Baylor has offered a scholarship to Bear Acy, a five-star prospect for the 2029 class who is ranked No. 7 overall in the country. Acy has not announced whether he will accept the offer, and the source did not provide details about other programs pursuing him.
Acy is the son of Quincy Acy, who played at Baylor from 2008 through 2012. The elder Acy was known for his work around the basket and earned a place on the All-Big 12 Defensive Team during the 2011-12 season.
Bear Acy is listed at 6 feet, 7 inches and is described as having the length and athletic ability to affect passing lanes, challenge shots and contribute near the rim. The report also characterizes him as a player capable of helping on both ends of the court.
Baylor coach Scott Drew coached Quincy Acy during all four of his seasons with the Bears. If Bear Acy eventually joins Baylor, Drew would have coached members of the same family across two generations. The report says that a commitment would also raise the standing of Baylor's projected 2029 recruiting class.
