Fig id help

A friend of mine has this fig growing in his orchard. He recently died and the fate of the trees are uncertain. I was thinking it has skin like alma, but a lovely red color I've never seen the other Texas a m fig,,, BA1 Is it? Anyone might be growing this one?
Know it's name? Thanks

Looks like a celeste type. Perhaps LSU Red?

Texas BA-1 is a green fig with 5 lobed leaves.

Thanks for the input Ross. I wish it was a big large LSU Red tree!! It has
Thick skin ,kinda tough, dare I say. Not like any Celeste strains.
Tx ba 1 is also know as Red Gold.. I think .

Yeah. At a second look.. it's definitely not LSU Red. Are all the leaves 3 lobed?

No Ross, many single lobe also.
