It seems a significant part of the BK hire is cultural.

We've gone from Les Miles eating grass to Coach O ripping his shirt off in commercials. The national media love promoting those personas which I'm sure chaps SW's arse. Not to mention of which both have been or tangentially associated with Title IX issues.
Not a good look.
In SW's mind and IMO a vacuum of professionalism was created over the last several years.
I can say with confidence Brian Kelly does fill that professionalism void very well. I don't think we have to worry about any armature hour issues with BK.
I just hope that translates into Ws.

Culture will indeed be significant imho:
He didn’t coach many “inner-city“ kids, “country“ kids, or Cajuns at Notre Dame.
He will experience an entirely different “culture” at LSU.
How he relates will determine his success.

He’s Catholic and an a-hole.
So he’s a great cultural fit.

May be - heard from the friend of a current player who said he came from a high school where the program was very disciplined and no on had their phones constantly in their hands - to LSU where he said players were constantly on their phone and if a coach came by to tell them to turn it off or put it away they just laughed at them.
He said for him it was culture shock.

He will run a show more similar to Saban, the days of guys sitting because they are scared of injury is about over . You are either in or out

Looks like a perfect culture fit to me

That’s a big part of it I’m sure. He’s perfect.

I hope you didn't hurt your self with that stretch.
The personalities of both Miles and Orgeron were generally well received by the national press and for the most part resulted in a positive image of LSU.
I wonder how long will it be before Kelly says or does something to piss you pearl clutchers off.

All Tiger fans must be aware of the culture BK comes from, it is not cultural but educational. Recruiting for Notre Dame requires finding recruits who not only can play football, but also excel in the classroom. Thus, BK should not have too much trouble finding recruits who can meet the LSU educational standards, as long as they can read/write!

This and overall moral character mean a lot to me.
I don't like showboats nor weak character - at all

This was absolutely a hire to change the culture. I can't imagine a Brian Kelly coached team doing the swag surf before a kickoff, or smoking cigars in the locker room.
I'm worried it's an overcorrection. We're gonna lose a lot of guys who are focused on their NFL career and not LSU, or guys who want to come here and goof around and have fun. Good riddence, but that's who coach O recruited. We're gonna have roster problems unless the portal turns in our favor.

Lack of a sense of professional discipline has held LSU football back for too long. With Brian Kelly, that will no longer be the case.

We just fired the best "Cultural Fit" that LSU has ever had. It was a disaster.
We just hired a guy whose culture is "Winning the right way."
He will transform the program and LSU will be better for it.

As long as he stays away from the freshman girls and the bimbo gold diggers I think he'll be okay.

I don't know. He doesn't seem to have a high motor to me.

Not cultural, it's about the BRAND. Stop thinking of LSU as some punchline with joke head coaches and instead think of it as a serious powerhouse.

I look forward to a boring, yet competent, head coach.
