I heard he tried to call time out before they could tell him but he had burned them all.

I was shocked Kelly was not more successful.

Some people will look at this and call LSU crazy and lunatics.

But in reality, it shows commitment to not accept less than the best. It also shows the passion of your athletic donors, who we’re willing to pay big sooner, rather than allow things to continue to get worse.

Very strong move

Guess you got to give him some credit for stabilizing things after O left

This is exactly what happened.

Orgeron gutted the organization, not just the players. He broke most of what Saban had built and Miles had maintained.

Kelly wasn't worth 100 mil for his schemes, offensively or defensively. If that's what you looked at, you'd say "WTF is LSU doing".
But- he was probably the top option for building/rebuilding a program "behind the scenes" stuff. LSU desperately needed that, to fix the circus O left. And they got the top guy for that job. And the only way they could get him was to pay through the nose, but they figured it was worth it to fix things.

So, Kelly has done his job. Now, it's a matter of making the move before things backslide because of this year's issues. And if the target is Kiffin, you can't wait with Florida on the market.

Thought maybe they’d name Jay Johnson interim head coach.
—with Kim as OC

he is extremely arrogant and doesn’t like listening to anyone else.

But overall it was just... "meh".


Are you kidding?

September 4th Florida State?
October 8th Tennessee?
Etc.

I don’t blame BK for player mistakes, but every game had some bad decision from BK.

How Woody is not also driven out of town is beyond comprehension- first you wreck A&M and now you wreck us, and you get to keep your job? No

Dude - his team lost the second half 35-0 (til garbage time) last night, at home! Do you really think this program is "rebuilt" 4 years later?
