FORT WORTH -- TCU baseball coach Jim Schlossnagle received the news a few hours before everyone else did last June.
Schlossnagle's phone rang with the same information that Luken Baker emailed all 30 professional teams, stating his intent to play for the Horned Frogs and skip the pros. At the time, Baker was ranked the 58th-best prospect by Baseball America and was on the verge of potentially receiving a $1 million signing bonus.
