I takes a minute. He has to put his board together and talk to the assistants at LSU to see who he might want to keep.

Funny how he got the hottest assistant to come work for him last year considering nobody wants to work with him.

I’m still cautiously optimistic about the hire myself but this is just stupid. The guy pulled Marcus Freeman last year who was the hottest assistant coach in the country last year that everybody with an opening wanted.

He should have been prepared to get two key assistants OC and DC ASAP.

After championship Saturday

Long time Brian Kelly assistant and current Cincy OC MIke Denbrock

Houston DC Doug Belk

UGA co-DC Glenn Schumann

The entire USC staff becomes available after Saturday — Donte Williams, Graham Harrell

These are just some names/situations off the top of my head. I’m sure there are other Brian Kelly connections out there that I don’t know about

Kelly needs coordinators before he hires position coaches

Yea and he had accepted or been in the bag for a while like many of you think and not a quick rushed decision we'd have hires already even after his coordiantors said no.

I know you're pretty reactionary, but do you really believe he would have been coaching Notre Dame and interviewing assistant coaches for his move to LSU during the season?

Y'all are placing way too much importance on these hires getting done on some imaginary accelerated timeline you've made up in your heads.

The remaining LSU coaches who don't take other jobs now are the ones who are going to be majority of the recruiting through ESD. The assistant coaching hires probably start happening at the end of December and into January.

If LSU wasn't making him give speeches at basketball games, taking photo shoots, and making hype videos; he might be further along in the process.

I agree, this seems like the fastest anything starts shaking out.

I thought about this today.

Hopefully the wbb game tonight is the end of the dog and pony show for a while.

Time to get to work.

It's partially the truth, but this board is going downvote anyone who isn't on the Kelly Geriatric Express.

Mike Sanford was just fired by Minnesota, so my guess is he joins the staff with Jeff Quinn and Frank Wilson on the offensive side.

All 3 were terrible head coaches and Wilson did an especially horrendous job at UTSA and I can tell you their admin was glad to get rid of him. Great recruiter. Huge ego though.

Kelly ghosted everyone on the way out and pissed off his own assistants. There's a reason none of the young Notre Dame assistants want to join him at LSU. His only hires have been his admin assistant and his son who is a sweet kid but he's on the spectrum.

He probably has been speaking to prospects, but maybe he is waiting until after LSU'S bowl game?
