Just a title, doubt he will be doing much besides helping Baker on gameplanning

Nothing interesting about it at all... its just a title to tag on his resume and justify whatever salary they gave him.

Hankton had the Co-OC title. He wasnt calling plays and probably wasnt involved in the gameplanning. Sloan got canned and Atkins took over as head OC.

The disrespect people give Chris Kiffin is amazing

Is he SEC DC caliber? No. But this guy has coached position groups in the NFL at multiple stops. Same in the SEC. And has been a Co-DC in college.

He’s the Co-DC of an SEC team. By your own admission, he isn’t getting disrespected when someone says he shouldn’t have the Co-DC title

Posters didn’t even want him coaching a position group — which is mind boggling.

Chris being given a fake title to keep Lane’s brother close by a year removed after his father died? Yeh I’m good with it

Remember Blake Baker is probably only here for a short time longer. This sets up his brother to move into the DC role when Baker moves on. Keeps continuity if that happens.

Actually, I think it's more of a situation where he's put there to learn from Baker. Not the he couldn't be a DC on his own, but we all know Baker is leaving eventually, and continuity wise , promoting Kiffin would be the easiest route.

And the Offense proceeded to get even worse. I kept telling yall that Atkins got fired at Florida State for a reason.

Coach Chris Kiffin can help Coach Baker better game plan for running QBs. That would be a bonus for the defense to become formidable in 2026.

I liken it to us calling Lanard Fournette a D-1 RB... It was part of a bigger plan
