Was a common no-show for classes, weight training, and player-led workouts. I think the staff somewhat knew what they were getting after a PITA transfer/NIL negotiation, but didn't know how much they had in the WR room and needed Spring camp bodies.

Hearing he might find a landing spot at UNCC if they are willing to take a gamble on him.

I do not think it is wise for a coach to negatively comment on players leaving the program. If appeasing fans is the goal, going through a third party (e.g., beat writer) seems the better route.

None of them referenced him personally, but there was a collective vibe.

The link between the two events is clear to the extent it is obvious to outside observers. Baker darted Blake, no doubt. If it was appropriate and fruitful is another matter.
