I think he lost a big chunk of the fan base when he threw up that bullshite against Alabama last year coming off a bye. That was the most unprepared team I’ve seen in a long time and it was one of the worst Bama arse-whoppings I’ve ever sat through. Made worse by the fact that they were a totally pedestrian team that didn’t even have Saban anymore.

BK isn't going anywhere.
IF the Tigers don't make the CFP this season, BK9.9 is going to either retire or resign with a $$$$ settlement to GTFO a la Orgeron.

Just wait for it. Wait for it after the season IF there's no CFP.

All you Kelly Pumptard Sycophants can spew your "BK isn't going Anywhere" pablum all you want.

Yall did the exact same thing with Miles and Orgeron.

Shortly before the end, yall were defiantly spewing the "Les isn't going Anywhere" and "Ed isn't going Anywhere" BS too..........

You seem to say this a lot; with confidence. You know something we don’t? Don’t get me wrong; I would applaud the aggressive correction; but what makes you so sure?

I gave him more leeway than most because of the roster he inherited, but I think I’m out. Can’t block, can’t run, can’t throw, can’t manage timeouts - that’s not a good recipe.

Buyout is way too high though. But unless he drastically changes, next years schedule is absolutely brutal and we may not even make a bowl game. If that happens, things will get very ugly.

ETA: unless we can drum up some scheme to get him fired for cause….

It’s trending to 50/50 and more are coming over to the right side every day. By the end of the year it will be 80/20.

It is simple he makes the playoffs or he loses the fanbase. This is year 4 and he has the money and the staff he wanted. None of the potential hires his year have done any better Lincoln Riley Napier Mel Tucker James Franklin ( he did make the semis last year but he is in yr 10 and still can’t get over the hump)

He will reach a settlement if he doesn’t make playoffs this year he is getting older and burned out and thought he had the roster this year. Nuss bad AU has surprised him and it will sink the season of a change at QB isn’t made

If they lose at home to South Carolina at night, then the season is over and the fanbase will move on for 2025.

None of what you’re saying has anything to do with the question.

When does Kelly lose the fanbase not when is Kelly going to be fired.

He lost a significant portion of the fanbase this weekend. Like another poster said, when Bama bears us like a drum, he’ll lose the majority of it.

I think we wanted to make an out of the box hire quickly and not a logical hire.


We wanted to make a hire that would stop the bleeding and tailspin set in motion by Orgeron and stabilize the program with a high floor and set up LSU for long-term success.

No program in which Kelly coached fell off the map after he left because of the foundations he set at each school.

Billy Napier I do believe would have been good here too.


Hahahahahahahahaha

What you are seeing at Florida is what we would have seen at LSU with Napier. He took over a good program that saw 2 bad seasons in a row and needed an overhaul.

What have you seen out of Napier and his program building at Florida that makes you think he would have had any success at LSU?
