    Blake Baker Interviewed With LSU

    Then leave it alone. If you think you've corrected the mistake twice, then walk away. It would be different if he made a half-dozen separate mistakes. Sometimes there are timing issues with posting. No big deal, he has acknowledged that whatever "moderately decent" third down conversion...

    Blake Baker Interviewed With LSU

    Stop acting like a little girl and pretend that you've ever watched football. COMBINE our third down and fourth down defense, and that will give you a more accurate picture. Good lord, you act as if the offense only has 3 downs to make a first down. I don't care if we were "halfway decent" on...

    Blake Baker Interviewed With LSU

    People just loooove to misinterpret stats. Here's another thought. Even if some nimrod thought that our "third down conversions allowed" percentage was "pretty good", we then had the WORST FOURTH DOWN CONVERSIONS ALLOWED PERCENTAGE in the country. Taken to its logical (statistical)...

    Blake Baker Interviewed With LSU

    You say "our issue" as if there is only one issue to address. We have multiple issues to address. Defense may not be #1. Third down conversions allowed may not be #1. Fourth down conversions allowed may not be #1 (though we were the worst in the country). But, yes, we DO have issues to...

    Blake Baker Interviewed With LSU

    OK, sorry for the misunderstanding then. ****, I had to look at the stats myself to see how bad it was. We were on a three-game high (after Bethune Cookman) where we held three straight teams to 20% on third down conversions. After those first three games, it was all one long disaster on...

    Blake Baker Interviewed With LSU

    Just stop it. As I pointed out, over our final 9 games (the ones not involving Bethune Cookman or Central Michigan), we had a percentage that would have ranked us in the BOTTOM third of the country. Yeah, we piled up the third down stats against UF, UNC, BCC, and CMU, but after September, we...

    Blake Baker Interviewed With LSU

    Good lord, someone is going to BRAG about this #42 ranking, as if it is some sort of accomplishment? Here is the reality. Four of our six "best" games for 3rd down efficiency were our first four games. We held UF to 2/10 (20%). We held UNC to 2/10 (20%). We held BCC to 3/15 (20%). At that...

    Blake Baker Interviewed With LSU

    Inexperienced secondary? That's why 4th and 17 happened? That's why we had such an atrocious 3rd and 4th down conversion stoppage rate? Give me a break, we are not the only program with an "inexperienced secondary". There are no 15-year vets in college. Every program puts a few freshmen on...

    Blake Baker Interviewed With LSU

    But, sure, YOU played football, so you should know. Good lord, it wasn't just "4th and 17", we gave up horrible 3rd and 4th down conversions all year. "4th and 17" was just the worst, and it cost us one of our SEVEN losses.

    Maybe Manny is encouraging him to explore his options.

    Blake Baker Interviewed With LSU

    Is there any chance that a member of the UM Board of Trustees can offer to pay Baker's LSU salary for a couple of years? That would be ideal.
