Save all the "HUR DUR CRINGE COMMENTS"

If you are a grown arse man who is confident in yourself you truly don't give a damn about looking any kind of way on social media. The only people worried about dances looking cringe are folks who take Tik Tok dance challenges seriously.

NOW TO THE POINT.

The video posted of him with Danny Lewis has EIGHT MILLION views.

Get this. a video, a recruit posted on his on social media with a Coach DANCING has him 8 million views in a couple days.

Can you spell NIL? Do a little jig with your Coach, BLOW UP on social media, leverage that new following for NIL deals. Freaking genius.


Using the hate for Kelly, viral spread of the videos, to build platforms for recruits to leverage NIL. I freaking love it.

And not just the NIL deals but the viral exposure. I work with high school aged kids and the lengths they go through to try to “go viral.” They see a kid like Danny Lewis go viral with 8 million views. The social media generation of recruits will eat this up!

I sort of agree with you but if Ed had done this, o boy.

People overrate 1 viral post way too much. Danny Lewis isn’t going to be set for life because a post of Brian Kelly dancing with him went viral. It’s not like he has millions of people following him now. He’s got 2,200 followers.

For those counting at home,

8 million views = 10 football seasons of full Tiger Stadiums

Welcome to today's college football. We've been waiting for you.

I like the dancing. I don’t like the use of the verb cringe as an adjective.

People just want to look at the surface, dump their opinions all over it and move on. No one takes the time to really think it through. If you're talking about Brian Kelly, you're also talking about LSU. If LSU is popping up all over your twitter feed, you're thinking about LSU. Never, ever underestimate the value of capturing mind share.

The other part of this is Kelly having a little fun. Don't care what it looks like to some people. The guy is building a damn strong program and he's enjoying himself. These little videos are an opportunity for Kelly to showcase another side of his personality. He's trying to connect with his recruits and generate some energy around the program. See any other coaches doing this? See lots of headlines and twitter activity related to other programs? He's even got other coaches talking about him on social media.

And oh by the way, has any program been more active in the portal than LSU? Seems like the Tigers keep popping up all over the place.

Keep bashing him.

I hope he keeps dancing.

To be fair, if the other option is to have your head coach shirtless in bed with his girl, then that didn’t go anywhere as well.

I agree with this totally and was saying it yesterday. We should play into him being a veteran.

That’s fine. But I think this proves that the ripped shirt stuff wouldn’t have mattered much had Ed been winning. I’m as surprised by that revelation as anyone. If Kelly doesn’t win, this kind of stuff will be crucified.
