MORGANTOWN, WV – Moments ago, Rich Rodriguez and the WVU Football program secured yet another defensive commitment in the 2027 recruiting class. Broncs Baker, a linebacker from Tooele, Utah, took to X on Friday morning to officially announce his commitment to the Mountaineers.
Grateful for the opportunity to be recruited by so many teams that believed in me. Each one felt like a great fit, which made this decision especially tough. After much prayer & reflection, I will be committing to West Virginia. @WVUfootball
