We get it. you believe In Baker and his system

He’s gone unfortunately

I personally think he should turn it down. A bigger job will come open at a power five again in a year or few years. Can't just take a job because it's a job. Has to be the right job.

He’s a Tulane Alumni and they have spent more time being ranked the last 6 years than LSU has… their last 2 head coaches got P4 jobs.

It’s arguably the most ideal situation for him to get a legit HC job that could make him a candidate for any job in the country if he succeeds, and Tulane is clearly set up for success as a G5 school.

1. Tulane has been a stepping stone job (and launch pad) for coaches who are successful there, going back to Mack Brown in the late 1970s early 1980s. (Brown, Bowden, Rich Rod, Fritz & Sumrall to name a few).

2. Coordinators get very few opportunities to land top end conference jobs like Kirby Smart and Dan Lanning. Most will end up at places in the power 4 conferences where it is very hard to win, if they are even given the opportunity. These opportunities quite often derail a lot of promising up and comers careers.

Kelly will be a very long way from The South
Lane must have already made it clear to Blake he has no plan for him.

Yes. And there are plenty of names.

Does Kiffin call up Saban and get his input on who he thinks would be a good fit as D Cood at LSU?

I think Tulane will hire Napier.

He would be a fool not too if he’s offered tbh. Would love to keep baker but if your offered a head couching job you absolutely take that
