It would be a longer rebuild under Kelly as he would have to rerecruit almost the entire offense to fit his system.



The vast majority of LA High Schools run some variation of the spread. IT wouldn't be that hard a transition.

He would be the perfect coach scheme wise with LSU's talent and recruiting base.

Personality would be hard fit down here.

Sure between Texas and Louisiana he could get the players, but it would take three years or so to recruit them. The offensive players on the roster were recruited for a completely different system and then were ruined by whatever black cloud hung over Les's offenses. There might be a losing season between his hiring and a SEC West title.

Kelly is one of those guys who if he has his guys to run his system he will kill you, but if he doesn't have his guys then his system will just be run crappily.

I think the reason so many want Herman is he is the kind of coach that can win with what he has, he doesn't really have a system like Kelly.
