You know he got fired because his defense sucked, right?

So being an LSU DC isn’t a guarantee at a head coaching job? Got it.

Now image being one year away from a head coaching job.

Two choices. One with a defensive staff you built, who got you in a position to start turning down offers, working for a coach who not only hired you, but gave you that DC job.

The second, leaving for a job offer from the guy who never gave you a chance and fired you. So you have to build your defensive staff and rebuild the personnel from a shitty defense, just to leave for a head coaching job after one year.

I am sure Brian Kelly had zero input, absolutely zero input, in the LSU defense.

I mean, why would he as head coach?

Blake Baker knows this. It will be interesting if he does what is best for his career or what his wife might want. Or might not want. Or he just takes the money.

Who can say his wife isn’t more pissed off than he is about getting stabbed in the back and getting fired by LSU after doing a good job. She was obviously excited to go back the first time. Wonder how she feels now after LSU fired her husband and made them uproot their family?

LSU may get him. But they will have to pay.
