Tennessee commitment Justin Baker recaps official visit, working as a recruiter
Tennessee commitment Justin Baker was back in Knoxville for the weekend for his official visit to see the Vols.
For the 5-9, 200 pound tailback, it was a victory lap of sorts as the Buford, Georgia stand out has logged plenty of trips to Rocky Top.
“I have been up here a lot so there’s not a lot that I haven’t seen.” Baker said. “I was able to get a good look at the academic side and player life like some stuff you don’t wee when you are on an unofficial. It was good to see those things. Other than that, it was like coming coming. Knoxville is a great city. People know who you are and it’s always good to be back around here.”
Baker committed to former running back coach Jerry Mack so this weekend was important to continue to grow his relationship with new running backs coach De’Rail Sims. A relationship that Baker is feeling plenty comfortable with.
“It was great. I see a lot of my position coach in high school inside him,” Baker said. “The way he coaches and the way he operates. I think it’s going to be a great smooth transition with him as my position coach.”
In addition to getting more comfortable with his future position coach, Baker was also working as a recruiter specifically with receiver Travis Smith, another Georgia native.
“I was trying to get Travis Smith,” Baker said. “We played together back in little league in a couple of all star games. What’s not to love. We were out him for a couple of nights and I was like what’s not to love. It’s a family here. We love him. It’s his decision and I’m going to support him where ever he goes, but he knows where home is.”
