Long haul for me is 10-12 years or so

I question anyone not named Saban to consistently win in today's SEC in their late 60s

but I completely agree with this

that young also puts you in position to make a leap to the NFL if you're successful

idk man. I wouldn't be ecstatic over it, but Kelly is obviously a massive upgrade over O and even Miles.

He's a year older than me. I'm in the top 1% of my age group in terms of health and conditioning. I no longer have the energy it would take to build a college football dynasty, and Brian Kelly couldn't keep up with me for 90 minutes.

Also, 10 years ago Saban was better than he is now. So we can get Kelly, who peaked 5 years ago, and keep him through his declining years? No thanks.

No it is not.

Guy is a very very good football coach and would be awesome with LSUs talent.

Ok. Give your reason.

Can you refute the fact that he didn’t build Cincy? NOPE

OR HOW ND IS ABOUT TO BE IN THE CFP AGAIN? Nope.

Kelly is 3 months younger than the Muppet he is replacing.

There are a lot of openings out there now. I bet Ed's phone is ringing off the hook, with a natty 2 years ago.

Err'body knows he quit after '19.
