Yeah but his second year he was in the natty. And the two years after that he was 13 and 12 wins. Don't compare these two men.

And he had a LOT more talent when he started. THEN he paid for recruits in the scheme Saban taught him.

He also inherited a roster from Richt that was in infinitely better shape that what Kelly took over.

Richt left a championship caliber team that he just couldn’t take over the hump.

Kelly took over a dumpster fire.

But have we gotten any better or regressed? Seems like the crap he inherited wasn’t that bad

Offense I think has improved from last year but defense has gotten way worse

That is nowhere close to being true, but I don't have a problem with him in general. The defense just sucks and he needs to make a change after the season is over at the very least. Firing House now will not help the defense for the rest of this season.

He didn’t start with literally nothing,

BUT he inherited a disaster of a roster from O. He’s got his work cut out for him to get this program back to the LSU standard. Next year will be time to take a step forward.
