I have faith in Kelly, but TBH with the portal, NIL and 12 team playoff, teams can get turned around quick if they have the resources and right leadership.
yep - in today's world, you don't need 4 years to turn a program around.

Bk inherited a shite program. He handed Freeman an 11-1 team. He will bring LSU back. They have Nil figured out.

I agree but this year was definitely a step back from what I expected

you think this is good, for an elite football school and a HC making $10 mil per year?

This is a fail.

That’s the 7th highest paid coach in football. 3 ahead of him didn’t make the playoffs, 4 had 4 or more losses. We had 4 losses.

His pay is the going rate, Stoops at Kentucky makes 9 million, Venables at Oklahoma as a 1st time head coach makes 8 million. Using his pay for an argument against him is stupid.

Edited to add he’s given back 2 million so far in 3 years so he’s averaging about 9 a year.

If I told you BK would accomplish this with how bad the program was when he took over, would you have taken this?


No... all of that shite is irrelevant. It's playoffs or bust. I'll give him credit for what he did in Year 1.

Nobody cares about these meaningless bowl games in the "Opt Out/Portal" era. They are nothing more than a winter scrimmage with patched up rosters in half empty stadiums. So winning that 10th outside of the playoffs doesn't hold any weight.

The Heisman is an individual award (Happy for JD5).

If you think you should get more, then every million dollar KID in college should DO MORE.

I think if it had been 9-4, 10-3, 10-4 with this year being SEC champ and a Heisman winner then yeah, everyone would be pretty stoked. Problem is it looks like we have gotten worse each year he has been coach. Hell, correction, it doesn’t “look like”, record proves it.

8-4 is unacceptable at LSU and gets you fired.


No, it doesn't. Less went 7-5 then 8-4 in back-to-back seasons 7 years before he was fired. He won 8 or fewer regular season games a total of 4 times in 11 years. Orgeron had back-to-back non-winning seasons before he was fired.

Why is everyone PMSing tonight?

This was coming off a natty which obviously changes things. Your O example too.
