J.C. Baker was a bruising, productive all-purpose back for Western Illinois
In his Western Illinois career, J.C. Baker was a high-volume runner with real home-run juice, including a 2014 season with 1,265 rushing yards, 5 rushing touchdowns, and 25 catches for 198 yards and 3 receiving scores. He stood out for his vision, durability, and versatility out of the backfield, plus the ability to flip field position with chunk runs. For a team, that profile fits a workload back who can also stress defenses in the passing game.
