Ron Baker to WSU as 4 for 5

[wusphlash]

Somehow, Baker and Wessel with their curly hair remind me of the 70's.

I dont remember a lot of curly hair in the 70's 8)

Some that were there, don't remember the 70's.

So is it for sure that we are going to get another guy for next year, because Baker is paying his way the first year. Would there be another reason?

No.

There is an open scholarship.

maybe they are saving the scholarship just in case Danny Ainges nephew can be persuaded to come to WSU.

FSF can't explain why, but this Shocker could be a sleeper down-stream. No, obviously not an immediate impact type player. I just keep having people that have seen Baker play just rave on about him. Is he a Franchise player? No! However, the good Doc seemed also impressed and or at least curious.

Here is a player that I will watch closely, that in due time, may hit a shot from Downtown 21st and Hillside or at some huge Dance, that we will never forget as Shocker zealots. Or if not, a player that strives to be the best D-1 player that he can be to fullfill a longtime dream come true. Why not? Stranger things have happened!!!!!!! Who do I think of our recruits that will make the biggest splash the quickest? Carl Hall. Even so, I just had to post this. Just think. On some of our best teams ever, Local and Statewide players were in the player mix. We are now again recruiting Local and State-wide players and this is very cool. Can u dig it? Groovy. Stay tuned.

Maybe we'll think of him like we do now about Graham Hatch? You never know.

Watching the video of this kid he looks similar to Hatch in 3 ways.

1) he is white, lol

2) has a good looking shot

3) looks to have a toughness about him, looks like a ball hawk

How he didn't remind me of Hatch.

1) he looks much more athletic and quicker

2) looks like he can defend the ball better (I think that comes with what I just said above)

If this kid works like Hatch I think he will fair just as well or better than Hatch did here.

[pinstripers]

His skillset reminds me more of Demetric's game.

The folks on K-State's Scout.com site just raved about Baker.

Mention of Grayson George of Minneapolis, Ks, having interest from WSU.

[another shocker]

I think this young man is going to work out very well at Wichita State.. :yes: especially if Marshall is still around.

I believe you should put this in women's sports.

[pinstripers]

But the Baker kid was worth watching. Very humble kid with great sportsmanship; when our star senior fouled out with about 4 minutes left, Baker went over to him and hugged him and told him he played a great game. A lot of mutual respect between the two, I've actually heard there is a pretty good chance that Wichita St could offer both of them. (The Minneapolis kid is Grayson George, his sister, a couple years younger than me, was Miss Kansas 2007)

So, when he offered to walk-on this coming year, is he guaranteed a scholly for the 12-13 season? I just watched the Goodland game on youtube, and he seems like a smart player that is tough.
