LSU football coordinator listed on hot board for Florida State job

As we enter November, college football's coach-firing season is heating up. On Sunday, Florida State fired coach Mike Norvell, and now one of the sport's premier programs is searching for a leader. On3's Pete Nakos dropped a list of names to watch , and LSU defensive coordinator Blake Baker was included. Here's what Nakos wrote: "The Tigers’ defensive coordinator turned down the Tulane job this past offseason to stay in Baton Rouge on Lane Kiffin’s new staff. Viewed as one of the top defensive coordinators in college football, he’s emerged as a head coaching candidate after turning around the LSU defense. Under Baker, the Tigers ranked 15th in scoring defense and 25th nationally in total defense in 2025.

The LSU DC has been one of the sport's top defensive play-callers, dating to his time at Missouri. He is a proven recruiter and an X's-and-O's coach. Baker turned down the Tulane job, but Florida State is a Power Four program. If FSU comes calling, LSU probably isn't winning that battle. Baker is among
