I don’t have a clue who he has contacted. I was basing my assumption off what I heard at the end of the year about Baker staying and hiring a co-DC and tweaking some stuff. I thought Trob was co-dc and then he wasn’t. Then I heard from Tennessee’s side that we were in on Steele. And I...

Other credible people on here say there are more names I just don’t know anything about them and if we take it serious I trust Cribby saying Baker won’t be calling the D in 2021.

It was definitely on his own. He didn’t want to coach on-field here 2 years ago. He did Manny a favor stepping in when Simpson left. He did him a favor last off-season agreeing to coach another year when the interest in the DL job was **** poor and Manny was stuck in the middle of an offensive...

You’re exactly right. I kept hearing the word fit when I was asking why X, Y, & Z weren’t in play. Whatever that means. I doubt he had all of his eggs in the Steele basket but he definitely saw that as the best “fit”

Steele is 100% taking that job to finesse his way into their HC position. He and Fulmer go way back. Might be best for us because he seems to be a weasel everywhere he goes.

It’s all speculation from me now. I started coming around and dropped a few hints I thought baker might be gone a few days ago because I thought there was no way Steele picks Tennessee over us. Then South Carolina hires someone else and I thought it was over for sure. I didn’t even think it was...

There’s nothing imminently wrong with Stroud’s health but he was never supposed to coach on field here and has been advised many times to step away from the grind. He’s fine right now but the concerns that existed before covid, then adding that into the equation, he wasn’t coming back.

This is why I’ve been saying I don’t think we get a DC. Steele was the only name I’ve heard floated around and I knew he was likely headed to Knoxville. Auburn is gonna pay him and he wants to collect from them because he thought he had their HC job in the bag. Manny definitely had a talk...

The he’s fired info and the Blake fired info along came from thin air for the podcast listens

Exactly where this is headed. Fork in the road is Blake Baker. One way leads to a top 10 program and the other leads to fired by the end of 2022 at the latest

Their friendship is legit. It is obviously a barrier I’m not sure how it could be denied. If there was no tie to manny he wouldn’t be here to start with. IIRC he lived with manny for a few months when he first got the job

You’re probably right. and that’s my thinking too. But he’s talked with a few high quality/high demand DCs over the last week or week and a half. That’s the trying part. I’m 100% certain there’s been talks. My belief is it was discussing scheme and finding assistants that will coach what we’re...

It very well could be playing a role. If he doesn’t fire or demote him that’s the only reason in my eyes. But if he does do something he’s a savage (giving him too much credit for doing what he should do anyway) because he’s basically told them who is going and who isn’t

You’re right. It alludes to all things being on the table. He can think he’s doing whatever he can but if he’s not self aware enough to see the problem it doesn’t matter wtf he does. He could hire 4 new guys all with coordinator experience but if we come out with baker calling plays and...

Manny is trying. But just know that if Baker is gone... the mfer is the most savage dude on the planet because he’s going behind one of his closest friends back and hiring someone and then firing him or demoting him. That’s unheard of in the coaching profession. but if you’re gonna do it.. you...

He takes care of himself better than anyone I’ve ever seen. He’ll be doing marathons or triathlons or something coming up I heard. Eats clean, wife meal preps for him, and trains like a mad man. Went to workout with a friend at the facility in summer 2019 and he was in there looking like he...

Would have happened last year but manny got little to no feedback from DL candidates and then got caught up overhauling the offense. Basically same thing with firing Rumph. Kind of happened last year and then he got stuck overhauling and back tracked and gave him another shot because recruiting...

From a middle man mutual friend. What he calls his closest friend who is a legendary HS coach in GA. I grew up playing ball with his son

My outlook on if changes happen.. the above is how it will go

I’m not saying he’s legit. He admitted to knowing nothing when this all began, right? Maybe he got a high off of it and convinced himself he did know his **** idk
