It wasn’t fit, it was completely lack of work ethic. CBK was on cruise control

I have no idea if he was the same way or not at ND but so far we know:

He was late for meetings constantly
Took a vacation during the bye week
Was at the beach during critical recruiting time.
Played golf regularly during the season
Apparently engaged in an extramarital affair during the season.
Didn’t know and even meet with some coaches before hiring
Was not found at the office nearly as one expected.
Obviously as shown by the Aggie game, he didn’t even know the players.

I had a lot of coaches in the family, and my mom used to bring lunch to my dad and often the assistant coaches just to spend time with him, because if he came home at all she was asleep and this was mostly high school. (unlike CBK he won a shitload of state championships) He wouldn’t even think of going on a fricking vacation during the season, even for a day. He would have been miserable anyway worrying about his team. There was always so much more to do. And this isn’t unique among successful coaches. August through December is 120 hours a week plus work time.

This is bullshite

That alone should be cause for firing. And I am sure we are going to find out more

I’ve heard that description of Kelly and cruise control over 12 years of our experience with Kelly ball. Those exact words.

Sounds like an absentee father and husband. All for high school football.

Sounds like you've listened to many of the same podcasts I have over the last 24 hours or so.

The one that shocked me was him not meeting with some of his assistant hires before hiring them. That's just completely unacceptable. It pisses me off the media in BR waits until this shite happens to put it out there. If they cared about the program more than their access to it, they should've been making these things known.

Also, the BOS forcing some of the defensive hires on him is a little ridiculous. I'm guessing that relationship went stale fairly quickly during 2023 when we kept House for the whole season.

Much of what is listed as fact here is actually only alleged.

Guaranteed money in sports, especially for coaches, is a disincentive.

All of that came from good sources bro. Even Moscona is admitting it now

It was actually stepdad and all kids were grown. Trying not to dox myself, watch the Pate clip for starters. We have all heard the rumors, they are all going to turn out to be true

Don’t disagree but what happened that makes you say that? Unfortunately I was at a party and had no audio for the game.

Where was our local media for all of this? We have heard NOTHING about this until he was fired Sunday night.

I hate the “fit” thing. LSU is a place for winners so the coaches who “fit” here are the coaches who win. Doesn’t matter if they’re from New York City or Cut Off it doesn’t matter if they WIN.

Moscona called out the Clemson media for soft ball questions.

All that time the BR sports media was complicit on covering up what was going on at the ops facility.

Don't want to lose that access.
