The Rivals Industry Ranking rates Baxter as a three-star prospect. He is ranked No. 1450 nationally, No. 26 in South Carolina, and No. 139 amongst interior offensive linemen. The Football City, USA standout has experience playing multiple offensive line positions but should be an interior player in Columbia.

Baxter is the longest-tenured commitment in USC’s 2026 recruiting class. He pledged his services to the Gamecocks back in the spring of 2024 and never wavered. He is the teammate of fellow Carolina commit, four-star safety J’Zavien Currence.
