Blake Baker & Chris Kiffin working together…. prepping him to be next DC after Baker gets a HC job?

Not with linebackers. I mean it’s 100% just a reason to pay him more money. You don’t hire a person with the exact same titles as someone you already have. Especially when he only has 2 total years of experience at those positions.

I get it, he’s helping out his brother. But you don’t have to pretend it’s something that it’s not. I’d love to hear reasoning for how I’m wrong.

As many as you want. You can only designate 11 to recruit off campus. 10 plus Lane.

Lou Spanos doing the same job as Kevin Peoples?

We better have a helluva defensive line and pass rush considering there’s so many coaches focusing on it.

Looks like it’s just Lucas and Houston. So much for no one getting on the plane.

I would hope so. He’s only done it for two years before though. I’m more surprised they didn’t just make him DL coach since that’s where the majority of his experience is at and Baker coaches the linebackers. That alone should probably tell you isn’t isn’t as good of a coach as some are making him out to be.

Have you even looked at Chris Kiffin’s resume for five seconds? He’s more than qualified to be on staff
