<b>WACO, Texas – </b>Baylor football head coach Dave Aranda announced the signings of 20 student-athletes to the class of 2022 on Wednesday.<br>
<br>
The incoming Bears represent five different states, including Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas and Utah. Six four-star prospects and 14 three-star recruits headline BU’s 26th-ranked class, according to Rivals. Additionally, two signees are included in the
ESPN300 rankings.<br>
<br>
“This is an exciting day for the future of Baylor Football as we bring in 20 players who showcase the person over player culture we are building here at Baylor University,” said Aranda. “This coaching staff worked hard to put together a group of young men that
reflect class, integrity and academic excellence in everything they do. Building off of this special championship season, we were able to fill our needs across the board and bring home to Waco a group of strong players who will continue the legacy.”<br>
<br>
“We recognize the importance of recruiting within Texas and are excited to bring to Waco 16 players who come from this great state. Thank you to the incredible high school coaches of Texas and their ability to develop incredible players on and off the field.”<br>
<br>
“I want to thank all of the recruits and their families for their time, energy and effort throughout this process. Baylor Football is looking forward to the impact this class will make at Baylor University. I also want to thank all of our coaches for their
hard work in building relationships with these recruits and helping us put together what we believe is a strong class for the Baylor Football program. We are looking forward to continuing to build a strong person over player culture and the legacy this class
will leave.”</span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
