re: Has there ever been such a universal flip on a coordinator?

First, no one was calling Baker the best DC last season and he is the 2nd highest paid one. Last season, he had trouble stopping running QBs. LSU is doing a better job this season but for the immense talent that LSU has on the defensive side of the ball, Ole Miss and Kentucky exposed his poor scheming. Even A&M would have scored a LOT more point IF Marcel Reed could find open receivers and not make stupid decisions.

I've said before, Blake Baker is NOT a top 10 college DC but I do think he is in the top 20. I have not changed my opinion at all. LSU has more talent on defense that the results show. Oh, and please don't bring up LSU's defensive ranking.. They have played offensive impotent teams like Clemson, La Tech, McNeese, and A&M which are skewing the numbers.
