I’m so glad he left MU after he got his a$$ beat. He would have been a cancer for our program

Before his freshman season, Baker was arrested in April 2016 on several charges, including operating a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs and possession of marijuana.

Baker and other former WKU teammates were suspended for the 2017 season opener for their roles in a March 2017 assault at a campus fraternity house that left one man with injuries. Baker was charged in the incident and pleaded guilty to complicity to second-degree wanton endangerment and complicity to fourth-degree assault under extreme emotional distress.

Baker returned to the field after the opener and played in only seven games while fighting injuries. He was kicked off the team in April 2018 by former coach Mike Sanford for a “consistent violation of team rules.”

The Ashland native spent one season at FCS Portland State and played in only two games.

Helton gave Baker a chance to rejoin the Hilltoppers as a walk-on in the spring. Baker went through spring practice and was ruled immediately eligible by the NCAA in May.

Baker was considered one of four to five running backs competing for consistent rotation in WKU’s backfield this fall

He does seem  determined to earn one of those sexy orange jumpsuits.

After all that trouble, what are the odds that if Baker had any basketball talent he would eventually wind up on Stansbury's Hilltopper round ball squad!!  :o

Looks like a gun was involved this time.  This kid is heading down a bad path with his life.

Redshirt junior running back Quinton Baker and redshirt sophomore offensive lineman Preston Mixon have been removed from the WKU program after being connected to two separate reports of shots fired early Saturday morning, according to WKU.
