Later Years
Baker was inducted into the State of Oregon Sports Hall of Fame in 1980, the College Football Hall of Fame in 1982 and the Oregon State University Sports Hall of Fame in 1988. Oregon State has retired his #11 football jersey.
Baker's 99-yard run against Villanova in the Liberty Bowl remains an NCAA record, and because plays from scrimmage can never start from the goal line the record can never be broken, only tied. He is now retired from law practice, and still living in Portland, Oregon.

Famous quotes containing the word years:
“Did she in touching that lone wing
Recall the years before her mind
Became a bitter, an abstract thing...?”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Narcissus does not fall in love with his reflection because it is beautiful, but because it is his. If it were his beauty that enthralled him, he would be set free in a few years by its fading.”
