re: Is Baker the most polarizing assistant coach we’ve ever had?

This might be helpful to a few posters in this thread:
Polarizing: is an adjective that describes something or someone that causes people, opinions, or groups to divide into sharply opposing or conflicting factions, leaving very little room for neutral or middle-ground feelings.

Probably Denbrock as well, the board was pretty back and forth over him.
Yes, it was pretty comical actually, one year House was the darling and Denbrock the problem and the next year House was devil and Denbrock the savior.
Such is the era of instant gratification, it all about the here and now, the big picture and the long game we're not patient enough for. I'm certainly not immune to it....I get caught up in this phenomenon sometimes too.

No, this is not that polarizing.
His defenses have been stellar except when they go to a soft prevent. Which really is a result of not wanting to lose the lead that the defense helped build.
It was a bad 1st half plan against OM. I suspect CLK had some input on how to limit Trinidad. Then you had the end of the game prevent zone against OM and UK. There have been a few long 3rd downs they have given up, but that happens.
There are complaints with any DC. Arranda had problems at times and people didn't like his defenses. It's part of the "Rant".

No. There is no satisfying the entire fan base. Pretty much every DC has been polarizing. The only time the fanbase isn't polarized is when we all agree the DC is, in fact, performing terribly. (e.g. Denbrock)

Matt House isn’t polarizing. Everyone hates him
Early during season two, he was. The improvement in the defense in 2022 made a lot of folks give him an early pass in 2023.
Conversely, a lot of folks were dogging Denbrock in 2022 then praising him at the end of 2023

Since Aranda. Time has passed and glossed over just how bad people thought he was in 2019.
True but I think the difference is was that Aranda was loved for the vast majority of his time here before 2019. 2016-2018 everyone thought he was the best. 2019 was a bit of a disappointment at times which brought out people shitting on him but his defense turned it on to finish the season after the Ole Miss game.

This is a tale as old as time. Everyone loves a coordinator when we are winning. Forget so quickly. SMH.

Kevin Steele has to be high on the list

Well, if you mean fans at both poles than maybe you have a solid point. There have been several coordinators who drove everyone to the negative pole, though.

You haven't lived much.

There are idiots here who still think the 2019 offense was more Ensminger than Brady.
Posted on 11/10/26 at 1:01 pm to Sheriff Brackett
Its like Aranda all over again.
Posted on 11/10/26 at 1:52 pm to Sheriff Brackett
Yes. It shows who knows football and who is just a little bitch that needs to whine about everything.

a tie - Bo Pelini
Never forget how disappointed I was when we played Ms State in 2020.
It never improved throughout the season.
Scratches head!
Pellini coached the best defense in the nation in 08, when we beat Ohio St for the National Championship.
Hmmmm!
