are the recent signings of freshman phenoms, which likely changes Baker's role from what it might have been.

Eli Bryant was needed in a star role as the only good 3 point shooter and #2 rebounder. Eli was furious that Cougar Nation wrote him off because he had played injured the year before. Baker chose to redshirt.

Expect Baker to hit 40%+ from the arc but think more in terms of making his young mates better.

Eli carried a mediocre team (with TJ who shot 30% from 3 and Yo on it) which got worse after he left.

I saw him play at Irvine. Have no doubts about what he'll bring.
