I'm not complaining. Simply stating facts. BK lost a 5* QB to Ole Miss after making a dumbass video with him. Simply a talking point.
Lemme ask you this, you think BK is the only coaching making silly videos? Have you seen Sabans dumb arse Aflac commercials?

Excuse me if I don’t believe you…. Your comments and responses on here don’t exactly paint you as a reasonable or rational person.

Brian Kelly is absolutely not the winningest active coach.
My main point still holds.

Would you be happy with LSU losing the next 15 games just so they would get rid of BK????
I'd hate that for LSU. I'd never wish for them to lose just to get rid of BK. I wish he wasn't here, I wish he was never hired in the 1st place. But he is here & I've got to sit back & watch it play out.
My honest opinion is as follows:
I think Brian Kelly will end up with a Les Miles like career @ LSU. He will win some games, he will lose some games & in the end he will most likely win more than he loses. But what will he do the games that matter, the top 10 matchups, the playoffs & the championships? I think he will underachieve in the biggest games on the biggest stages. For the sake of LSU, I hope that I am wrong, but history has a tendency to repeat itself.
34-34 vs top 25 & 4-11 vs top 10 @ notre dame.......

No you don’t.
Also that’s more of a Notre Dame problem and their restrictions than it’s on BK.

Yea that’s all a bunch of bullshite. That’s what that guy wants to happen more than what he thinks will happen

Really?
Kelly's record in 13 years at Grand Valley State was 118–35–2
Kelly's record at Central Michigan in three seasons was 19–16
Kelly finished his tenure at Cincinnati with a 34–6 record
Kelly finished his tenure at Notre Dame with a 92–39 record
Kelly is currently 16-6 @ LSU
118+19+34+92+16= 279 total wins in his head coaching career.
Nick Saban 287–70–1 (college) + 15–17 (NFL) = 302 total wins in his head coaching career.

I’ll ask again, in your immense wisdom, who should LSU have hired that was better after Orgeron?

Actually, he had 113 wins at Notre Dame. They vacated some wins early in his career due to a academic scandal.

I would have preferred a younger head coach. Think Saban coming here from Michigan State. He was a nobody before he got here. Now he is the greatest coach in college history. You will never get that from a 62 year old man. He will not be here 20+ years, that's what I'm trying to say.
I do not have an answer as to what particular person could have come here & provided that type of longevity.
I wanted Dave Aranda initially. Would he have been better? Nobody can answer that because we will simply never know. I just wanted someone younger than BK.
All of BK's baggage aside, he has absolutely under performed in big games. His record @ ND vs top 25 & top 10 competition speaks for itself. I understand that ND has recruiting and admission restrictions. But if Nick saban went to ND after he left the dolphins, I do believe that they would have multiple nattys by now.
I did not want to hire saban back after they canned Ed. Saban is past his prime & will retire sooner rather than later. I was hoping to hire the next Saban to avoid another coaching search in 5 or 6 years. I was hoping for a long term coach. Think Bobby Bowden @ FSU or Frank Beamer @ Virginia Tech.
Lincoln Riley was always an option but his teams always had horrible defenses. Honestly, I think he could have overcome that here with an elite DC, but we will never know what have could have been with him either.
I'm not saying that Aranda or Riley would have been better, would win more games or would have gotten a natty. But they were both decades younger & could have been here for a longer period of time if they panned out.
Sorry if that isn't the answer you were looking for.

Well if we are counting vacated wins, BK has 300 (118 of those wins came from a D2 school)
Here is what it looks like if you remove his D2 wins.

Shocking.
You don't go out and hire a young, unproven coach when you have a dumpster fire situation on your hands. That often turns into a Willie Taggart-FSU stye mess.
BK was viewed as the safest and best option to rebuild the program and to leave it in the best shape for the next head coach.

Aranda is a career .500 head coach. You're nitpicking Kelly's record and stumping for a career .500 coach. That isn't logical.

This is going to happen less and less. Kirby has discussed retiring already and heavily considered it in 2020. Riley says he likely won't be coaching in ten years.

He has arguably been worse than Kelly at USC, if you consider conference and strength of schedule.
He lost to Tulane last year, you would crucify Kelly if he did that.

Yes I am pretty fricking sure that BK made a dumbass video with Walker Howard & he is now @ Ole Miss. Not sure what part I'm missing here...
Losing a guy to another team via the transfer portal still = losing a guy to another school, does it not?
Posted on 11/1/23 at 2:44 pm to jsmoke222000
Gotcha.
So you're just being dishonest to prove a point.
It's not Kelly's fault Howard didn't want to sit behind Daniels and Nuss.

Obviously you spoke with Scott Woodward about the plans for the program before he made the hire. My bad, I didn't realize yall were cool like that.

Nick Sabans record was 43-26-1 when he came to LSU. .614% Dinardo left a dumpster fire when he left going 4-7 & 3-8 in his last 2 seasons & a young Nick Saban fixed it. I was simply hoping for the same type of hire. With no risk, there is no reward.
I'll just agree to disagree with you.
