Three-star cornerback Antwoine Baker (6-0, 171, 4.4), from Jordan High School in Los Angeles (Calif.), thought he was finished with the recruiting process. Baker was going to commit to Mississippi State and that would be that.
"I was planning to commit to Mississippi State and I talked with coach Guy Holliday about it," Baker said. "He told me that I should wait and keep looking around because they had filled all their spots and they weren't sure if they had a scholarship offer for me anymore."
He visited the Bulldogs on Nov. 17 and was really impressed with everything they had to offer. "They are still recruiting me, but I haven't heard from them in a while. I don't really know what’s going to happen."
The offers he says he once had, including Washington, Arizona State and Nebraska, are now all gone. "I've sent my tape to Nevada," Baker said. "I'm trying to set up a visit with them later this month, maybe Jan. 19 or 26.
"They are a pretty good team and they've been recruiting me too," Baker said. "They went to a bowl game this year and said they really need help at cornerback, so I think I'd be able to make a big impact for them."
Baker finished his senior season with 45 tackles, as his team went 3-8.
He reports a 3.0 core GPA and a 790 SAT (old version). Baker is taking the ACT in February.
