The wit and wisdom of Brian Baker


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Quotes from DL Coach Brian Baker in the morning minicamp session...

_________________________________________________

(during a drill) "I thought you were defensive linemen. What are you doing?"

(watching the guys hit the sled) "Guys, it's a blocking sled. It doesn't hit back."

(to Greg Hardy) "Get your eyes up! Don't run with your eyes down! See what's in front of you!"

(after a badly executed defensive scrimmage play) "Follow the ball! FOLLOW THE BALL!"

(another drill) "This is supposed to be a pass rush drill. Where is the pass rush?"

(in a very exasperated tone) "Can somebody please get off a block?!"

(yet another drill) "Look at the target. See the target. Hit the target!'

(said more than once, loudly) "Go! GO! GOOOOOOOO!!!"

(best of the day) "You're tired, huh? Well, you're tired because you're FAT!!!"

i think it would be more helpful to tell them what they're doing wrong and how to improve their game rather than just say they're doing crappy. is he a demotivational speaker or a coach?

he'll teach in TC. i think he was just trying to get them use to the speed of training camp and kind of give them a taste of what to expect. should be an interesting camp this year!

I doubt the players took it personal.

    • You know, there's something about this whole JAG thing that really just drives home the idea that to some folks, these players aren't real people, just names and stats.  Of course, it goes beyond sports. We're a sad, jaded species, us humans.
    • I hope we get no featured games, or only one if that's still a thing Don't like having to subscribe to a service just to see the panthers play a single game, i'm looking at you peacock Football is made for sunday afternoons Word
    • Yeah, it's just dumb. Everything is year to year. I never understood how anyone could stay engaged as a Kentucky fan or duke fan as duke became a one and done factory like Calipari made Kentucky. The thing I liked at about UNC is that we primarily focused on recruits likely to play multiple years. We'd have pur occasional one and done but most of our pros still played multiple years. And the days of the Stackhouses, Wallace, Jamison, Carter, etc. playing multiple years is just over. And now you have your role players entering the portal every year to test the waters elsewhere. I don't blame them for looking out for themselves but just personally speaking I'll run out of interest quickly trying to get to know a whole new roster year over year.
