How is he at recruiting? His style of coaching? That bald head seems pimp.

Decent recruiter. No where near the level of Pruitt. Our D was quite bad last year, much improved this year. I have no idea how much of that is due to Kelly and/or the athletes that FSU has on D.

He's a solid recruiter. He did a good job this year with a very talented group.

It's really hard to judge him. He was average in 2014, but had a nice bounce back this year. A lot of credit to the addition of Brad Lawing.

I understand the pull of coaching at his alma mater, but it would be stupid to leave what FSU has coming back.

Of course... No way would or should FSU offer him 1 million.

I don't think he makes that big a difference for a program

Would be worth every penny if we can somehow pull Lawing, too.

He would be worth giving a big raise to.

I think he'd stay knowing FSU has a good shot at the playoff in 2016, while Gus could get fired

So FSU's defensive staff that put up a 15th overall total defense and 5th overall in scoring defense are scrubs that FSU doesn't want anyway?

I love this board

It really is hard to judge him off of 1 good year. I don't think most FSU fans will get too hot and bothered if he leaves.

He has more talent to work with at FSU than he would at auburn.

I think Lawing is more valuable than Kelly tbh.

For sure.

What I like:

-His defense improved from year 1 to year 2 and this past season they really played well.
-He's got some work to do before he's a HC candidate
-He recruits well

He's a new DC though and it's tough to say how good he's going to be, as you mentioned. But, he's about as good as the market is going to give us right now IMO.

Definitely agree on all accounts about Lawing. Do you think FSU would promote him to DC?

Doubtful.... Jimbo prefers his dc to coach the secondary

Still unproven as a DC. He had one good year. Definitely not worth the type of $ Auburn will throw at him.

If Auburn was willing to pay Champ 1.6 million, I'm sure Kelly will be getting an offer substantially higher than what he's making at FSU

It's just money. What else are you gonna do with it if not spend it?

Didn't you think we'd pay Dameyune like 1.2 mill?

If you got it, spend it. I wouldn't spend it on Kelly, though
