If a freshman-diddler and Farmer Fran can win championships at LSU, Kelly most definitely can. He knew that he could get much better talent here.

Fan of the hire, but this is the biggest part of the whole deal. We did this cheap. The much bigger story.

Sounds like Brian Kelly was the only coach man enough to take on the SEC West challenge head on, and do it for less money than what he probably could have gotten so it's clear he's ready to win. He's our coach!

What's the use in giving them an opportunity to match if he's mentally done there? He took a market deal to come here, not an above-market deal. This was not about money for him.

He was just laughing and giddy and talking about telling his team to "just have fun". It was very un-Saban. Then Mrs. Terry came up and was jumping up and down and they were hugging and laughing. It was just ... weird.

Brian Kelly is winning me over more, with each passing moment, it seems, and he hasn't even had his introductory press conference yet. When both sides are clearly motivated to work together, it usually bodes well for the outcome.

Exciting times.

Sitting at around a reported $7 million a year, I believe He had to know ND was not going to match $9.5. The only folks in that neighborhood are Dabo and Saban.

He was bitching about the Bama fans bitching even when they win.

Kelly's actions are consistent with what Spears was saying. He left bc he knows he can win NCs at LSU and hasn't been able to at ND.

BK clearly wants a title before he retires. This is great news.

The most exciting part of this hire to me is...kelly WANTS in the sec. It wasn't an astonishing contract. And not even listening to ND counters.

He wanted this job and the responsibility.

ND has far more restrictions than LSU when it comes to recruting.

Its all about the athletes. Kelly wants a championship. Compare that to lincoln Riley who opted for less competition.
