Baker has been quite the conundrum for the fanbase. If anybody has heard Jared lorenzen talk about him on any of the KSR podcasts then you've heard him say multiple things questioning his heart etc...
I can go back to one play and say where I think we lost Baker. LSU game freshman year he absolutely rocks a guys world on a hit I thought was legal (maybe maybe not but not the point). In turn UK preemptively suspended him for a half the next game and ever since I don't think hes been the same player. I think our coaches should have applauded him and made the sec make a ruling on it. After this he became tentative and that's not the way we need him playing. Hopefully Lamar Thomas can get that fire lit again because the kid has the tools and body to be a 1st round pick.
