If we are not, it will expose his weaknesses as a coach and an administrator

LSU will not sniff the playoffs so long as Kelly is coach


I don't care for BK much, but I wouldn't take that bet. He's not a horrible coach, he's just not as good as some think. It might be year 5 or 6, but he'll have LSU in the playoffs

Or what? You'll stop giving $20 a month?

You want to compare to SMU, BSU IU and ASU? LSU isn't going to get their schedules. They wouldn't make it with our schedule.


Thank you. It amazes me how dumb our fans are

It doesn't mean they are necessarily better coaches, but this season:
Texas
UGA
Tenn
Bama
USCe
Ole Miss
Mizzou

All have better records and Aggie has the same record and a head to head win.

Kelly getting 100 million dollars there's no reason why LSU isn't further along.
Wanna take a guess of the contracts of other coaches not in the playoffs?

1 Kirby Smart Georgia $13 million
2 Dabo Swinney Clemson $11.5 million
3 Lincoln Riley USC $11 million - NITP
4 Steve Sarkisian Texas $10.3 million
5 Kalen DeBoer Alabama $10 million - NITP
6 Mike Norvell Florida State $9.8 million - NITP
T-7 Brian Kelly LSU $9.5 million - NITP
T-7 Ryan Day Ohio State $9.5 million
T-9 Lane Kiffin Ole Miss $9 million - NITP
T-9 Josh Heupel Tennessee $9 million
T-9 Mark Stoops Kentucky $9 million - NITP
12 James Franklin Penn State $8.5 million
13 Brent Venables Oklahoma $8.2 million - NITP
14 Mario Cristobal Miami $8 million - NITP
15 Mike Gundy Oklahoma State $7.75 million - NITP

Mel Tucker signed a 10-year, $95 million contract extension in the midst of the 2021 football season. (not even coaching)

It amazes me that people think all programs have an even path. SMU had the easiest P4 schedule. Half of the SEC would go undefeated with that schedule.

12 teams were announced in the CFP this morning. that's 12 guys ahead of him right there.

How can you not understand this? You really think that even though he has his team sitting home for the playoffs he's still better a coach?

That's a dumb premise, there were years Saban didn't make the playoff, didn't mean the 4 guys there were better coaches.

If BK is an "average SEC head coach," then there have to be several guys ahead of him. Looking at your list, just off the top of my head, Drinkwitz and Kiffin are in their 5th seasons and went 9-3 vs MUCH easier schedules. LSU's SOS was top 10, those two were closer to #50.

Is that really better?

100 million dollars he better earn that shite next year

Prepare to be disappointed. Kelly's way out of "alignment" with this era of college football, LSU's culture and brand of football. He is Woodward's LSU version of the Jimbo hire.

which again proves my points the SEC is hard enough.

we do not need a bunch of tough OOC games that can cost us a playoff spot.


SMU proved it. can make playoffs with easy schedule. we will have enough grind with the SEC. so yes we have a tougher road yet fans want it even tougher as if we may need it because they think we are back in tghe old BCS system or they just want to be "entertained"
