I'm glad Kelly has been able to pull it together well. But dang it, I appreciate 2019, but this mess he left sucks

Looking back he had a couple of over valued classes.

His glasses were kind of average. He built up skill positions but didn't build the important positions.

shite for all the WRs he went out and got, we surely struggled with them the past two years.


Kelly is gonna bring in whole classes, filled with every position. We are finally going to have depth at the important positions.

He is an awesome recruiter..he's not an awesome roster manager or talent evaluator.

Obviously you forgot where LSU’s class was ranked before the wheels fell off about 4 weeks into the season!

overrated

remember after winning the NC he told handful of committed players to kick rocks to he could save room for higher rated recruits and those higher rated recruits went elsewhere

couldn’t even sign a full class

and this is after winning it all

Age old scouting/coaching conundrum, was it the recruiting agency that overvalued them, or was it the coaching that didn’t develop them?

Pull it together? He’s landed 1 guy that wasn’t committed to O and he’s lost a shite load.

No wonder Louisiana is run by a democrat.

Dudes been gone for a month but it’s still his fault when bad shut happens?

Emendation.

Point him at a recruit and say go get, he's as good as anyone. He has not been able to be 'just that' in a long time.

Our program has been a dumpster fire going on 18 months. He was fired mid-season.

You didn’t see this coming?

It's all horse trading these days, one big player swap among the schools.

Committing doesn't mean shite and the transfer portal along with NIL has made a mockery of college football.

People on here act like he walks on water, but rhe roster was thin at key positions when Austin Thomas left.

O brings Thomas back to manage the roster, and we are again thin at key positions.

Similar to Miles. At least O brought in some QBs. Hopefully Kelly will focus on the trenches and louisiana can continue to put out good skill players.

Sounds like another former coach of ours. Funny because when the last idiot got the job he said he was gonna build the trenches and blah blah and it ended the exact same way as the loser before him left it

The recruits are almost all guys that Orgeron recruited, and our roster will have enough talent to be a 10 win team next year.
