While I enjoy learning and writing about football innovations that Amos Alonzo Stagg, John Heisman, or even Rich Rodriguez sent our way, my favorite stories are those in which an everyday person takes a different approach and develops something that impacts the football world.
Thank you Mr. Baker. You made life a lot easier on the field for officating commumications with the teams and fans, and to make it more of a fair and level playing field.
Also thnak you Mr brown for the great research and the Baker relative that was looking for answers so that this hidden gem of football history could be remembered and preserved!

The digital ones UFL is using with down and distance are cool. Assume it received a signal from an operator or the scoreboard
Big contribution to the game, and one which has stood the test of time. His other life works were terrific as well.
It's funny how a little think like the flip-style down marker sticks in people's minds.
