Or maybe he wants the ability to use the talent he can acquire in the south and win a Natty?

Or he knows his admission standards at Notre Dame are biting his arse every year in the playoffs. And this is how you get over that hump

I’ve always gotten the sense that Kelly felt hamstrung with the talent he could get at ND and has wanted a chance with elite players.

He could believe that LSU will provide a much easier path to a Natty with our recruiting base and more lax admissions standards.

Maybe he isn’t a pussy like Riley. Some men are alphas and some aren’t. We know which one is and which one isn’t in this conversation.

We are going to be stuck with him for the rest of his coaching career, likely the next ten years

He better prove me wrong, but I think we just sealed the deal of going from trying to overcome Alabama to reach the pinnacle, to being about on the level of A&M with the O/Kelly one-two punch. Better than a total collapse but not real great…

And to win a fricking championship? Limited talent pool at ND. Kelly knows he will own the entire state of LA at LSU.

It’s being guessed that he’ll be the highest paid coach in CFB.

Part of it may be that he wants the challenge to go head to head with Saban every season, and see if he Dan make a name for himself as someone who can beat Saban.

He won’t have recruiting restrictions like ND…. No longer matters if your players know how to read.

Maybe he feels like the timing is right. If Bama and Saban are really declining he could come to LSU and be a king. I am sure the money is at least 75% of it but the guy definitely aint scared.
