Nah, the children just had to go to bed early for school tomorrow. Now it’s adult time.

I agree. The more I learn about Kelly, the more I like the hire!

When you write out the criticisms of Kelly, most relate to him as a person or ND as a program. Hard to poke holes in his ability to coach.

Sounds refreshing to me.

Yea. I admit to feeling the same way at first.

I’m starting to cozy up to the idea. But I immediately took 4 ecstasy drug tablets after hearing the news.

So I pretty much love everyone right now.

Agreed. His resume speaks for itself. I may not be jumping for joy for the hire, but I'd be lying if I said that it wasn't a strong hire.

After sitting back on it for a few, I can say that it's exciting to have a real coach that wants the smoke.

If you're not in on this hire, you're delusional.

Only so many coaches out there and not everyone wants to go to LSU regardless of what you may think.

Hes just the a-hole LSU needs. All the opt outs and "injuries" are about to go away.

Obviously. It’s an incredible hire. Said it hours ago. People are idiots.

At first you’re like “what? Brian Kelley?” He’s not a huge personality. Not really someone you think of when you think 50 points a game and Joe Burrowesque…which, let’s face it, it’s what we all expect and want now since ‘19. But then you think about it and wonder who else could we have gotten that has done more who is coaching college football? He’s second in win percentage to Saban. He’s recruited very well at a school that won’t take just anyone. He’s made it to the playoffs a couple times. There literally isn’t anyone who has a better resume than he does except Saban. Was it flashy? I wouldn’t call it that. But when you look at it objectively, he was the absolute best hire that we could have made, short of Nick Saban. He’s a hell of a football coach.

This is almost the same as the Johnson hire. After people settle in and really take a close look they will see how solid this hire is
