Bubba Paris

Bubba Paris played eight seasons in the NFL after joining the San Francisco 49ers in 1983 as a second round pick out of the University of Michigan.  During his days as a Wolverine he earned All-American honors in consecutive years as a junior and senior and also earned All-Big Ten honors each year as a starter.  While playing for the 49ers from 1983 to 1990 he helped his team win three Super Bowl titles in 1985, 1989 and 1990.  After seven years in San Francisco he split time between the Indianapolis Colts and Detroit Lions in 1991 before hanging up his cleats as a player.  After his retirement he hit the speaking circuit and has since become one of the most highly sought after motivational speakers in the United States.   When he’s not traveling as a speaker he enjoys spending time with his wife and six children.  One of his favorite things to do is to watch his twin daughters play in the WNBA for the Chicago Sky and Phoenix Mercury.
