In the most convincingly cold way possible, Brian Kelly is saying to everyone, "There's no f*ck*** room for error." Our defense sucks... "Lemme get that up-and-comer Blake Baker on that shite." Our D-Line sucks too... "No problem. The legendary Bo Davis isn't overkill enough for my liking, let me go get that 29-year coaching veteran and recruiting giant Kevin Peoples to help address that problem too. Have you seen his résumé?”

To all the "naysayers,” the doubters, to the people that aren’t bought the f*ck in yet. Buy some damn stock in LSU Football. Actions prove how seriously Brian Kelly takes this, it proves how badly he wants to win it all here. Not anywhere else, but at LSU. If you’re a fan, this should make you feel some type of way. If you screw this up, this of all things, there’s no question what you are. But the man has spent an entire career doing more with less, way less. Now he has all he could want, what the heck has Scott Woodward released into the College Football world?… I don't know, yet, but I'm dying to see it cook.

When is the last time y'all as LSU Football fans have felt a little bit of hype surrounding this program? I wanna hear the personal stories. Mine is right now.

It's concerning that he didn't make these types of hires when he got here. Having said that, I'm impressed with what he has done this off season in regard to retooling the staff, particularly on defense.

It is truly impressive what BK is doing with the defensive staff. Just wonder why they didn’t do this last year.

Exactly, why did he make the worst possible decision the first time around? Cost us a national championship.

We all knew the main reason Kelly came here is to not just win but win big. He served notice what is and what is not acceptable.

You live and you learn. At least we have someone that’s willing to learn.

I'm letting it go. It was a rebuild, you inherited much of nothing but a pre-established brand that needed life again. And I’m pretty certain Brian Kelly needed to prove his merit a bit in the SEC too before the bigger Coaching names would give LSU a more serious look compared to the other options out there. That’s been done. Mike Denbrock was like one of Brian Kelly’s first OC asks if I recall, and Matt House came after a lot of other people fell through, a lot. So in hindsight, it makes sense why one worked out and the other sucked. He’s trying to do a Tommy Tanks home run every single hire, he’s not messing around.

I get the agitation but let's remember this same staff put together a top 30 defense last season...with a very meh roster.

House needed to go because of horrible fundamentals. But there was a serious talent issue that we HAVE to address now.

Give me infinite money to buy coaches and players and I’ll win a championship here too. It’s a pay to win game now. X’s and o’s knowledge isn’t as important anymore. Just be a program manager and buy the best coaches and players you can buy. It works a lot like video games nowadays.

Don't be a hindsight expert. It was not the worst possible hire at the time.

Dinardo and Kevin Faulk brought back hope.

Saban and all the great players he brought in turned me into an LSU junkie.

Those times remind me of what you are describing. The start of the 25 recruiting class, a!ong with the defensive hires could be something special. Davis and Peoples can coach and recruit!

I supported Miles but was always a little surprised at his success here.

That was a lot to say when all you needed was a GEAUX TIGERS! But I hear you. LSU needs to circle the wagons more now because of the money bags to the west of us.

People questioned many of the moves he made when he arrived here. The secondary coaches were probably the most shocking.

Other than that had some bad luck, still won 10 games — getting it fixed (in a major way) after 1 year. I’m good with that. I’d have melted if we had retained House, but he’s making all the right moves so far.

Well, even with the best QB,OL, and WRs in NCCA, he has proven what won't work to get us to the top.
Next step!
