Magician is on 247 also and wants every coach fired if a recruit doesn’t end up with LSU. He’s no different on any other board either.
I want coaches that earn their paycheck.
If we whiff into Murphy - we have to flip Washington (not going to happen) or try to go all in on Perkins (who nobody from 24/7 or TOS think we are going to get at the moment) if all we end up with is Tolan and maybe some out of nowhere 3* to fill a spot that's not cutting it for $500k salary. Maybe I'm harsh.
Or they hold that spot and pray for a grad transfer and maybe you do get lucky and get another Mike Jones but that's a huge gamble and one you shouldn't see from a guy making $500k. We were all told Baker was a fantastic recruiter and had Florida "connections" and Texas connections.
I'm not a complacent fan like a lot of other tiger fans that just mindfully say "well maybe next year" "2023 is going to be so awesome"
I want our program to be consistently good like Clemson, Bama and OSU that includes the recuiting trail.
So outside of Murphy and Perkins there haven't been other names mentioned which tells me we are going all in like we did with Leigh last year.

I'm not complacent either but baker just got here.
He is a really good coach and I'd put my money on him in recruiting ability.
If he doesn't get perkins or murphy I'm sure he will have a back up plan.
If not then pounce. I just don't think you will need too.

Magician - I think you may be confusing ‘complacent’ with ‘unrealistic expectations’.
Baker has only been a part of the LSU staff for a few months, and he has already delivered a top-200, 4* LB from the Sunshine State (DeMario Tolan). Furthermore, he’s got us in the mix for three (3) other top-150 LBs (Perkins, Murphy & Washington).
It’s worth noting that Baker’s lone recruiting win (Tolan) is more than Daronte Jones and Andre Carter, combined.
Outside of recruiting, we will have to wait and see how he does developing guys currently on the roster.
