He’s a SMU and Ole Miss “insider” on ON3… I guess he is reporting on coaching changes that can affect his teams

I get that. I'm asking why you can see him being wrong here.

I don’t remember 100%, but I believe the Miami owner kept given Saban raises every time LSU would counter until they couldn’t. Someone with a better memory could probably correct me on that but I am almost positive he took an increase in pay to be HC at Miami as well!

Yeah, Baker's agents will do the heavy lifting and if it is a fit, he will be ready to formally interview and accept with the quickness...a very quick ascension for him...too quick?

He can stay another year at LSU, and jump to a better paying HC position. Tulane wont be paying him $2.5M.

Willie Fritz made $2.8 million the year before he left for Houston. Apparently they offered him $4.5 million to try to keep him at Tulane. Sumrall is reportedly making close to that $2.8 million right now.

Surely he is making more as LSU DC than he will as HC at Tulane, right?


Tulane was going to match the Fritz offer of $4.5MM but he still chose to go to Houston (he was at $2.8MM when he coached there).

Problem is people can talk to tulane for Blake. He doesn’t have to do it himself.

From DC to LSU to HC at Tulane?


It's close to a lateral move, but it is a step up. It's not 2005 anymore.

No contact with Baker which has absolutely no bearing on his agent being used as an intermediary which is standard practice. We go through this every year. School and coach usually don't talk until the absolute last possible time.
