I believe he wants to be involved in film. UCLA has an outstanding film program and I think Texas is pretty close behind.

Interesting. He already officially visited UCLA back in June and hasn't committed yet. The door is open just need to get him here for an official. he has already taken an official and an unofficial to Ucla. This would be the recruiting coup of the cycle if Ewing and staff could pull this off. You'd think a 5star from austin would be a lock for texas but thats not the place. Baker is legit...handles, inside/outside game...backup Omer his 1st yr...been the focal point his soph yr and learn from Ewing. Its a great pitch...good luck staff

Interesting point. I seem to recall that after he was hired and was making the interview rounds, Patrick indicated he would promise kids the chance to compete for a starting spot, but would not guarantee anything.

I wonder if Ewing will sell him on the fact that he will have a chance to play some 4 if he comes to gtown with yurtseven on the roster. Baker is a versatile big that can shoot the ball com the outside. ewing can actually put up the mold of derrickson and govan ... yurtseven be govan and baker be MD. Or pro level. Kaminsky= baker then yurtseven be howard seriously though a big shouldnt worry and if he takes a look at our roster aside from yurtseven there is no one else that can get more burn than walker.. leblanc is more of a 3/4 in my eyes so our bigs isnt that strong and if we get this guy he would really benefit playing along side Mackinjo, who wouldnt? I really hope we get this guy so we can move on from Stewart, i hope they wont allow him to wear 33 in college. I also agree that moses brown as well as shareef arent one and dones. Brown is just a pogo stick right now he even got outplayed by a 6'7 guy

If pickett started on this team i see no reason why Baker wont start for us next year. Unless leblanc or walker proves they are better that is the only chance he will sit and if that happens he might leave after 1 year. These 5 star even 4 star kids have too much pride.

While everything I read seems to scream UCLA vs Texas, this recruitment really seems to fit the usual Hoya stealth mode. I hope he takes the visit even if just to meet Ewing... You never know when a kid might fall in love with the campus, coaches, team, etc. Get him in for a visit and let the chips fall where they may.
Just to add after watching some videos, this kid sure seems like a match for what Pat says he wants to do. Great pick and pop / screen guy.

Any word on when/if he'll visit? I'd imagine if we are in a top 4 he intends to take an official to each.

Bradley Cooper, Nick Kroll, Jim Gaffigan, Carl Reiner, Steve Bannon (Ha), John Mulaney, Kelly Rohrbach --> think we have enough presence in the communication, media and entertainment sectors if need be
