Might be heading that way 

 

 

He's Playing really well right now 

We'll see, I'm not sure what he is, a JR or what? Either way, Kenny Baker is a damn wizard. I feel like an idiot worrying about that hire when it first came to light. Sark needs to find someone to do the same at OL lol (sorry i couldn't help myself). 

He certainly is becoming one of my heroes. 

Listed as a senior, as I imagine that you know.

Yeah i see that but he should have another year of eligibility. Pretty sure most were expecting 2 years out of him when he transferred.

Really? That's a shame, if he does continue to have a good year, he likely is gone.

I didn't realize he was a Sr, if he has a great year in 2025, I'd expect he'll flirt with the NFL, as he should.

Yep.  He redshirted in 2022, which is also in his bio on the Texas website, so the senior designation does not match the bio.  He's a senior in school, but he's a redshirt junior in terms of eligibility.  Nevertheless, if he maintains this level of play in conference, he's likely gone.

So far his PFF numbers are like a combination of a slightly less disruptive Collins stopping the run and slightly less disruptive Broughton in pass rush. More complete than either of them in terms of combined PFF grades. Color me extremely impressed. Baker is a wizard.

At this rate, if he can go in the first two rounds, bye. 

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves before he’s even seen the best offensive lineman he will see in conference play

But he's already played against a great Ohio State OL? I don't think it's jumping the gun. There is a lot of season left, but he's been playing well, so far.
