BK needs a press secretary. Talking to the media before, during and after a game must be fricking awful. Since when has a college football coach had to answer about injuries anyway?

Tbh Kelly hit the nail on the fricking head with his "spoiled" comment and this board proves it day in and day out. He should just stick to coach speak, however.


He was asked about our inability to run the ball and inability to convert on 3rD downs and responded you only need to have one good run a game to win and then references the conversion rate the week before against La Tech. Thats a fair question and a chicken shite response

If I was the reporter he whined about during the Florida game, the first question I would have asked after the Ole Miss game would have been the exact some one.

I’m not a Brian Kelley hater, but it was a fair question at the time and after last weeks loss even more so.

I'm not saying the question was unfair... I'm just saying that maybe it wasn't the right time to ask the question. I can understand his frustration in the moment and it only compounds when the Krewe of narcissist fans think he was personally "talking down" to each of them individually bc of their cuckholdry.

He was wryly insinuating that the members of the *media* are "spoiled" with access, not TicTok Tbob from Cut Off who is suddenly entitled to Garret Nussmeir's daily medical records.

I would agree with this 100% if we ran the ball for more than 60 yards last Saturday

How many times do need to hear Kelly say, "I've been a head coach for 50 years." "I've been doing this a really long time." blah blah blah.

Yet he can't handle, like a professional, some simple questions from the media? And the media is spoiled?

This guy is a thin-skinned phony, and we all know it.

As if asking a gotcha or “tough question(s)” somehow changes anything. St. Nick battled with the media his entire career and was the best coach in CFB history. Jay doesn’t put up with stupid questions and he shouldn’t.


"What are you seeing with the offense?" After a shitty offensive performance is the most sane and least stupid question a head coach could be asked in a POSTGAME press conference.

Who cares? I don’t need LSU’s coach to be a media darling. I need him to win.


Yeah that's the issue poindexter. He's not winning, which is when the criticism comes.

Same as here. He has difficulty speaking to press without coming off as a stark raving a-hole.

I just don’t think his relationship with the media is great period. I think the local BR media refrains from tough questions because LSU may restrict their access if they don’t like the tough questions. BK reminds you of a person that does not understand why others question what he is doing.
