The vast majority of posters wanted Lincoln Riley or Aranda or maybe Kiffin. Now y'all are saying you really wanted Kelly?

Did anyone mention Kelly as the White Whale?

It seems like there is a lot of coping going on.

I didn’t. But I’ll admit, my tune has changed now that I’ve moved past blindly hating him for his ND ties.

You mean a 60 old Les Miles type of coach? Who wouldn’t be excited.

I still believe this will be a stale hire, but whatever at this point.

If I knew he was a legitimate candidate I would've wanted him.

I would much rather or fickle. This is an underwhelming move.

I never thought pulling from ND was an option so I blew it off.

My tune as changed also, I hate him for his terrible NCAA compliance record and Title XI issues.

If I knew he was a real possibility, 100% yes.

Riley would have been tough call due to age, but BK's teams are complete....just no talent.

The fact that he’s such an A hole will make it easier to get rid of him.

I wanted Riley. We didn’t get him.

I like the Kelly hire.

No ragerts.

Most definitely Kelly is the white whale. . The only way ND got Freeman was to add title of coach in waiting. I believe Woodward has had this in the works for a long long time. Nothing against O he just wanted his guy at the helm. I wouldn’t be surprised if one of Kelly staff members will be a head coach in waiting at LSU.

I never made a choice for a coach. It's dumb to do that. Sets you up for disappointment when your guy doesn't get the job - particularly given that you don't know any of the information pertinent to the hire.

But Kelly was one of the coaches I thought we should absolutely make say no if there was the slightest chance.

Herbstreit got all the Notre Dame fans absolutely hating him earlier this season when he said again and again that USC ought to be going after Kelly.

I didn’t think it a remote possibility
But this has the potential to be great
