Listed Measurements: 6-foot-2 ¾, 230 pounds.
2019-20 year, eligibility: A sophomore, Bauer has three seasons of eligibility remaining, including 2019.
Depth chart: The utter lack of clarity in the linebacker pecking order includes Bauer. For these purposes, Bauer fits in third at Mike linebacker behind, in some order, fifth-year Asmar Bilal and sophomore Shayne Simon. Once August arrives, though, all three will have a chance to impress, a genuine chance considering how in flux the position is as a whole.
Recruiting: A four-star prospect and the No. 5 inside linebacker in the country, per rivals.
