If Baker actually did say to scouts what ESPN said then Baker is the most ignorant coach in the country and I am glad he is at Bammer. You are supposed to support and help your guys get drafted, not hurt them. You never tell a scout a player doesn't like getting yelled at. That is a kiss of death.

That's not how it works. Sports are no different than business.

Well then, what conversation do you believe Saban is having with Baker now? I would put money on it that there will be a discussion. Baker better hope he doesn't get quoted in the future saying something negative about a Bama draft prospect. Business or not.

I suspect Saban has done the same thing. More than once.

The way I heard it was Baker was trying to help him bc if he went to team with a real *** hole DL coach, he might not develop properly which hurts Sweat and the team.

I'm sure most coaches are *** holes, but I think Baker was trying to help him.

What jumped out to me was the analysts said the psychological testing they put him through during interviews showed he had some areas of concern. This would coincide with not taking cussing/yelling coaching well. We always hear about weird questions that are asked of players and I suspect they really pushed his buttons and he didn't handle it well.
