re: So BK left ND partially because he wasn’t getting enough talent

But they’re dead even for 2024, and they have 10 4 stars for 2025. I thought academic standards were too high, weather was too cold, whatever, for the quality players to commit in large amounts. Not a troll bitter post, just a little confused here.

It’s about $$ obviously but still, BK left because LSU “gets better players”. Thoughts?

Edit: I’m not a fricking troll (except for Bama and Missouri). I’m an LSU fan and it’s pretty obvious if you read my posts. There are not enough ND fans here or else I’d troll them too. I expected some DV’s but damn.

if you go by 0n3 rankings (which you should), Kelly already has many 5 stars in 2 and a piece signing classes, as he did in his first 7 years at ND. If LSU only gets three 5 stars in this class (think we ultimately end up with 5), he will have gotten more 5 stars in 3 and a Perkins classes than he did in his entire 12 years at ND. THAT'S the difference


Marcus Freeman has gotten only three 5 stars to commit to him as a head coach in the same time frame that Kelly has gotten EIGHT 5 STARS to commit to him (not sign, but commit so it includes 2025). This is going by 0n3 rankings.

Again, THAT'S the difference! Oh, and the Louisiana boys are just top of the line talent anyway.
