“Freeman is better.” “Should have gone after Lane.” “We should be competing for the Natty every year.”
When look… after the back to back .500 seasons O left us with, the changes with NIL, the CFP expansion etc. it could have been totally possible for LSU football to dwindle down to nothing and still be nothing. But he came in and immediately got LSU winning again and soon he’ll have LSU competing for championships again. I still can’t believe he made it to Atlanta year one at LSU. He’s a great coach.

He was a borderline great coach for a long stretch. I am waiting to see some indication he is still that coach.

Yeah was here to defend Kelly until you brought that up. I only gamble on sports early in season when Vegas doesn’t have their spreads right. And yet, that a-hole lost me $300 on Florida State the first year and $100 on the same Florida State game the next year. Shame on you Kelly. Couldn’t depend on you in game openers no longer.

Kelly is very poor at talent evaluation! We spent the 3 highest amount of money in NIL and what do we have to show for it? Great programs don’t have tons of people leaving in the portal. LSU misevaluates talent

LSU currently has the #2 2025 class in the transfer portal & had the #7 2025 ranked recruiting class. Both of your statements are incorrect.

Rankings mean nothing. Can they produce on the field.

I am reading about a slow loser. And it's not Kelly.

________

One of the best ways to describe him that I've heard. This pretty much sums up my opinion. I have yet to make a derogatory remark about him on social media, but am wondering if he is the same coach he was.

To the OP, I appreciate that he is a good coach, and that he has a good win % here at LSU. I don't know if he is good enough to get us to a championship. Time will tell.

I'm amazingly grateful.

I had 59 posts and I made sure my 60th was this.

Maybe some people just believe Freeman is a better coach (he has had better results) but don’t hate Kelly. You know, Kirby Smart is a great coach but Nick Saban is better. Sometimes people just don’t share your point of view.

Clemson will be a solid favorite opening weekend. Hopefully BK can pull a week 1 win.

He’s older and not as into it. Needs to hang around the facility more and not be the first one out everyday.

This happening 5 years ago has to be what's holding Big Game Brian Kelly back

It's year 3, we're unranked and you're still happy about winning the division a couple of years ago?

It's amazing how much expectations have changed.

after the back to back .500 seasons O left us with,
—You conveniently leave out O’s undefeated NC season. Where’s that on BK’s resume at any school?
Oh wait: “He led the Grand Valley State Lakers to consecutive NCAA Division II Football Championships in 2002 and 2003.”-wiki Maybe he’s a great Div II coach

He also left out the fact that the 2020 season cancelled 3 cup cake games and replaced some with SEC games
