Brian Kelly Success At LSU

Hi Folks - this is my first post here. Full disclosure; I am a Notre Dame alum. I have a good friend who is an LSU alum and have been to a few games in Baton Rouge with him. (BTW - best tailgating in college football. No where else compares. I've been to quite a few around the country).

I was disappointed to see Brian Kelly leave ND. Unlike many of our fans, I don't hold a grudge and hope to see him win a championship at LSU. In general, I thought the ND fanbase was a little hard on him. I do think he took ND to its current ceiling. I'm hoping that ceiling can get higher in the future.

He's a solid coach that makes good decisions down the stretch in tight games we should win (especially in the later years). I don't think he had the same talent level as AL, UGA, Clemson, and Ohio State, but he did well with the talent level he was able to recruit.

Overall, I am probably one of the few alum/fans of ND that thinks he will perform well at LSU and actually win a title. I'll be rooting for him. I'll be planning on attending some games over the next few years with my friend.

My only advice is to stick with him, because there will be some tough times in year 1 and 2 as he gets his system and players in place.
