re: No ND Kids?

quote:

---

Asked by Patrick if he would recruit current Irish commitments to LSU, and reminded by Patrick that Lincoln Riley in the days since he jettisoned Oklahoma for USC, had done just that very thing, Kelly emphasized he would not operate in that method.

“Of course not, Dan,” Kelly said. “Of course not.

Yeah, this isn't at all what was said.

He was talking to DP about when he took the LSU job. About how he was out recruiting for Notre Dame when he resigned from ND and took the LSU job. Dan jokingly asked him if he then followed up with the recruits to say "hey if you not interested in Notre Dame you can join me at LSU?"

That's when Kelly said of course not and they laughed.

Then DP brought up Riley and Kelly said the quote you cited.

Here's the link and what I'm referencing starts at about the 11 minute mark.

Nothing in that interview is him going on record that he's not going to target ND recruits.
