One name that continues to pop up is Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly.

It's a name that was placed on my radar recently, and I wasn't sure how legitimate it was...because why would Kelly leave a good situation at Notre Dame to one with more uncertainty at FSU?

But the guys at The Nolecast (Bud Elliott and Ingram Smith) mentioned Kelly on their most recent episode, citing a couple independent sources as FSU having interest in Kelly. And when Kelly was mentioned, the conversation shifted to academic restrictions at Notre Dame and how the sometimes caps the caliber of recruit you can go after.


quote:

Recruiting in the most talented region in the country for a coach who's chasing a national title would be part of the appeal for Kelly. And for FSU, a proven coach who's run successful programs at the FCS and G5 levels before maintaining success at a major program like Notre Dame would be high atop the wish list. Kelly

The Nolecast also mentioned former NFL head coach Jack Del Rio as a possibility. This was a new name to me.

If that happened, surely Urban Meyer to his dream job at Notre Dame.

You know, I think he'd be damn good at FSU.

MUCHHHHH easier to recruit and an easier schedule.

They could certainly do worse, but I'm not sure that's the best "fit".

eh Kelly doesn't really strike me as a great recruiter. He seems to fit better with the type of kids he recruits at ND.

Those players under a disciplinarian like Kelly would be an interesting experiment for FSU. He's definitely the polar opposite of Taggart

This would be the best hire for FSU I’ve read about when compared to other names mentioned for FSU.

I think that would be a great hire.

And hopefully also keep Urban out of the SEC and/or Texas.

He’s objectively not a trash coach. I don’t give a rat’s arse what kind of human being he is.

I don’t think Kelly’s hard arse shtick would go over well in Florida

Seems like there’s been smoke for years about Brian Kelly wanting to jump ship

My first thought too. I think that's exactly what FSU needs whether it's Kelly or not.
