Japhen Baker brings steady, development-ready size to UAPB’s offensive line
In the 2024 season, Japhen Baker was listed as a 5'11", 290-pound sophomore offensive lineman for Arkansas-Pine Bluff, and the available team pages do not show game statistics for him—typical for an interior lineman who’s evaluated more on role and reliability than box-score impact.[1][2] His profile suggests a compact, sturdy build that can help in leverage and pad level, and he was included on UAPB’s 2026 SWAC All-Academic Team list, a nice sign of discipline and buy-in off the field.[1][3]
