Sexton is Bakers agent. I bet Baker being mentioned is a classic Sexton pump up job he always does. Sexton floats his clients name all the time thru "sources".



This. Baker became public target #1 almost instantly and has been for a few days…tough time believing he’s the guy unless there are some legal hoops to jump through with the extension he signed, but we haven’t operated this publicly under Woodward and Kelly so smells like Jimmy doing work

People on the rant shite on Matt & Jordy yet they’d do the same exact thing if they had that job. Go listen to yesterday’s Jordy show. Towards the end, he and Lloyd both said multiple times that they have been wrong before & they will be wrong again. It’s their job to provide takes and pass along what they are hearing from either inside LSU or other media outlets.

a lot of people would not have a problem with them if they weren't blow hards. AFR host tries to act like he's the Adam Schefter or WOJ of Louisiana sports especially BR sports and most of time is dead wrong on his sources. When people have different opinions that it could be someone else they're immediately dismissed and talked down upon. Jordy isnt as bad but sometimes their takes get so emotionally invested that it just ruins whatever topic they're discussing. He's a typical tiger droppings ranter like us who just happens to have podcast and youtube channel.

What would be the angle? He's already gotten an extension. Is he angling for Drinkwtiz's job? Makes no sense no matter how many times it's posted. Agents float names for money. There's no money to be made unless he's leaving.

I agree with this. My point is that most LSU fans would do that job the same way if it was them. Jordy more so gets emotional about players he wants to see on the field not playing.

Mizzou panics and makes him the highest paid DC in CFB…not really tough to see the angle there. He has more leverage than he did when he negotiated the extension after the season.

Has sexton not gotten raises for guys under contract before ?

There is a reason BK waited this late to axe house, and it has nothing to do with the bowl game.

I disagree. He axed the entire defensive staff and he could not have done that before the bowl game.

There is always a chance to make more money even if it’s just a new title and small bump in pay

Wrong.

It's not their jobs to provide takes right or wrong. Their "takes" are speculative. Listen more to Hunt Palmer. You don't hear him trying to act like an insider. Radio personalities have options. Matt and Jordy choose to be speculative and it adds nothing of value. Matt also decides to be an obnoxious jerk in his delivery.

Duh

Remember when this was Jimbo’s dream job not once but twice ? Did he end up here or the place that paid Jimmy’s ransom?

Yawn. Maybe he's letting his agent do his job. It's OK to negotiate. LSU and Mizzou are both great places to be. Only advantage Mizzou has is he's already there. Doesn't have to move his family.

Who are you to say what their jobs are? They're a podcast independently sponsored and can say and talk about what ever the frick they want to talk about. They just sit around and talk about LSU. Occasionally Jordy might get a tidbit that he passes along. I listen to them the same way I would sit and listen to my friends at the bar. I know I'm not going to get some major inside info from them. They have takes and good guests and that's about it. Sometimes I agree sometimes I don't.

Agreed. I don't see him getting more money out of mizzou

If having speculative takes is what they think their job is, they suck at their jobs. And, as a result, they both do suck at their jobs. You can continue to feast on what you know is probably bullshite. Have at it, bub.

Their job is a talk show host to give info and their opinions.

There’s not 1 sports radio host that 100% does not give their opinion or speculate.

Jordy says “it’s his opinion” or “in my view” and admits that it’s speculation. Yet most ppl take as though he’s saying “this is 100% going to happen”.

Listen more to Hunt Palmer


Which you’ll receive info and their opinion and speculation.
