Former LSU Coach Brian Kelly Reiterates Desire To Return To Coaching

Former LSU head coach Brian Kelly continues to express interest in returning to college football coaching.

During a recent appearance on SiriusXM College Sports Radio, Kelly said he would consider another head coaching opportunity if the situation was right.

"What's the right fit?" Kelly said. "You know, I have 35 years of head coaching experience. I've had success in building programs. This is not a mini-commercial for Brian Kelly. This is just giving an understanding of what it's been like.

"I want to listen to opportunities if they're available, and if the fit is right … I would love to be able to be a head football coach again. Now it's just a matter of whether there is a right fit out there for me."

Kelly, 65, was fired by LSU after the 2025 season, following a 34-14 record over four seasons in Baton Rouge.

He has recently been linked to several coaching vacancies, including Florida State, and has expressed interest in the Seminoles' opening.
