The recruitment of elite Austin Westlake center Will Baker will come to an end this week when he makes his decision between the Texas Longhorns and UCLA Bruins on Thursday.
As it currently stands, Texas is considered the favorite for Baker’s services, per his Crystal Ball, with 10 of his 11 projections picking the Longhorns. If those projections prove true in the coming days, Baker would become the latest five-star interior talent to commit to Texas throughout the Shaka Smart era, joining fellow Austin native Jarrett Allen and Mohamed Bamba, both of whom went on to become one-and-done first round NBA Draft selections.
