Nick Florence Joins Baylor Sports Media Network for 2025 Season

Former Baylor quarterback Nick Florence will serve as the new color analyst for Baylor football broadcasts in the 2025 season, joining longtime broadcasters John Morris and Ricky Thompson. Florence replaces the late J.J. Joe, a beloved Baylor Hall of Famer and longtime analyst who passed away in February at age 54. Florence had a standout playing career at Baylor from 2009 to 2012, setting single-season passing records and leading the Bears to a Holiday Bowl victory over UCLA in 2012. He also earned All-America honorable mention and was the 2012 Big 12 Scholar-Athlete of the Year. Baylor will honor Joe's legacy with a helmet sticker during a home game against Arizona State on September 20. Florence expressed his honor in continuing Joe's legacy and looks forward to bringing his insights to Baylor fans in his new broadcasting role.
