you’ve provided zero logical reasons why you don’t believe Blake Baker is a good DC other than some yardage stats…



AKA facts which you’ve provided none and if you weren’t such a jerkoff you’d know I’ve said it’s not a matter of can he, we’ve seen him call good games when he’s aggressive but anytime the pressure is on he folds which the numbers show. The contrast tells the story but you want to waive it away. Until he proves otherwise it’s the #1 concern due this team.

Well as the above poster showed, one of the major “facts” you been whining about is actually in the top 3 of the conference.

I'm not sure what the point of this is. We have who we have. The pay has nothing to do with real world results. As another poster mentioned earlier: why are you picking on the DC when the OC didn't score enough points to win those games? Which DC and OC would you rather have (that are realistically available) to replace those we currently have?

That’s already been addressed but you seem to be a selective fact kind of person so I’ll post it again.


OM was 35% on 3rd down going into the game vs LSU, they were 60% vs Baker and 78% in the first half. UK is 24% on 3rd down vs every other team, dead last in the NCAA . They were 36% vs Baker.

Opponents are converting 50% vs us during road games, where do you think that ranks genius?


You don’t know what you’re talking about

413.5 ypg
29.5 ppg
5.8 ypp
50% on 3rd down
0/4 vs 2minute offense
1 sack per game
22 first downs per game
2.9 points per possession (1.6 is considered good defense)
(the national average is 2.1)

Just pointing out to those hating on the defense that going into the game, if you were told we’d only score 24 points, most people would say we will lose. And we did.

Lane will get it right. But the offense has been a big disappointing in the only two big games we’ve played. 24 and 27 points

I’m done arguing with you. It’s the same thing every post you make. You’re selectively picking stats to backup your “theory”. Claiming that we did blah blah in the first half. Or didn’t get a stop when we got the lead back. Guess what?! We only got leads back because the defense shut down both offenses to get us back in games in the second halves!
What about the game in its entirety. Stop selectively finding things to bitch about.

We’ve got a great DC, who’s going to have blunders, as does every single coach on either side of the ball. The fact of the matter is he’s done better than any DC we’ve had since Dave Aranda. That’s a decade in case you were wondering

Huh? You are adding in a home blow out loss that hasn't happened yet?


So now we aren't just cherry picking, we are completely making stuff up?
