In the end, Keene locked in on the Boise State mask, picked it up and put it on — and boom!
He unveiled a Broncos shirt as well — and it was all met with applause.
Unique, right?!
FYI — Keene’s a baller … dude had offers from a ton of schools after lighting up courts in Texas — so the Mountain West Conference is getting a pretty good one.
Good at hoops AND creative AND following coronavirus safety protocols?!?? Boise’s gonna love him!!!
