re: UPDATE: It's Official...LSU hires Missouri defensive coordinator Blake Baker

I agree.

I’m halfway excited to have BB. Seems like a good coach, good fit.

But $2.5million dollars to a guy who has like one decent year as an actual DC? Little sketchy. For that much money we could have gone out and hired anybody.

It is getting a bit weird we keep hiring coaches to the highest deals of all time, and makes it more awkward when it doesn’t work out. The optics of just blindly throwing money at something doesn’t feel like we know what we’re doing as a university. They did the same thing for House and that was a dumpster fire.

Doubly bad optics too that the guy BK fired less than 2 years ago is now coming back as the highest paid DC in the country


Hoping for the best
