Blake Baker is doing great...

[Bender]

This literally proves a lot of colleges have ADs with no ******* clue about sports whatsoever.

 

[AUcane]

Morons.

One month in the job and he gets a promotion from position coach to coordinator?!

 

[Astcloud11]

I didn't despise blake as much as most on here, Manny was responsible for all defense and he let it get away from him after he became HC


but the real telling thing is that our DC from last year (blake) wasn't even retained as a position coach by brian kelly

Brian Kelly also let Corey Raymond walk to a rival, and scored 8 points on Manny Diaz's defense despite having an OL with 3 first round draft picks or something like that.

This man deserves a chance. He was scapegoated here. Not saying he will be amazing but he improved per reports at LSU. Glad he has moved on and has a chance to clean up his reputation.

 

[jed2410]

Do we really know he was bad? Or was he just running some bad Diaz defenses?

 

[clg003]

Did they really making a whole article saying how agressive and good at recruiting Baker is because he is talking to a top 100 player committed to Georgia and got him to official at LSU? And then they go on to say that LSU will probably not be able to flip him, but that doesn't matter, since he talked to the kid he's an ace recruiter ?

Thats huge jump between 4 and 5

 

[Brooklyndee]

From everything I always heard about him, he was the least of our issues. Just stupid enough to believe his buddy and mentor had his best interest.

Well, we bout to find out, right?

No AD is gonna approve/disapprove assistant hires as long as they pass the background check. They leave that up to the HC.

Where ADs have no clue is contract negotiations. They get bend over more than Tori Black.

 

[JHallCanes]

Wouldn’t surprise me to see him be successful elsewhere

Everyone that’s joined the Diaz staph especially on defense gets a bit of a pass from me

I have no idea if he is any good or not but I’m interested in finding out.

Worst case he sucks glad he doesn't suck here. Best case more ammo for Danny slander.

 

[We the Boss]

Imagine trying to design coverage shells and run gap responsibilities for your LBs while a 160 pound lisper is projecting spittle all over the DL room, frantically ranting “all thath maththas ith getthing up feeeltth!!!!!!”

 

[SPAMM]

So this means that 4 members of Manny Diaz's former defensive staff, including Manny himself, are now defensive coordinators in college football

 

[RangerGranger]

But hey, it's an SEC defense, right?

/ahem

 

[BS85]

Blake always seemed like a nice guy, hope it works out

 

[Mikesmith29150]

Blake might be a good DC. It'll be interesting to see his scheme

 

[QuattroCane]

That GT goal line defense tho…

He’s a climber

It would be really cool if you did a 37 part expose on the last staph.
