UPDATE: LSU has hired Blake Baker as LB coach.
LSU is seeking to add Miami Hurricanes defensive coordinator and inside linebacker coach Blake Baker to the staff, according to a report from FootballScoop.com.
Baker is from Houston, TX, and played football at Tulane. He joined Manny Diaz's staff at Miami last January but reportedly lost defensive play-calling duties recently after Diaz made several new changes to the staff.

Miami defensive coordinator Blake Baker is a top target of Ed Orgeron’s to join the Tigers staff, sources have shared. While Baker’s role is not yet clear, a co-defensive coordinator / linebackers role may be in play.
Baker was brought to Miami by Manny Diaz after Diaz returned to Coral Gables as head coach following a few weeks leading the Temple program. The Miami job opened up after Mark Richt decided to retire, and Diaz reached out to Baker, his former right hand man at Louisiana Tech who replaced Diaz as defensive coordinator, to come run the ‘Canes defense and coach the inside linebackers in 2019.
Baker served as defensive coordinator at Louisiana Tech four seasons. He also worked with Diaz at Texas.
