re: Love to hear from Kelly diehards

Its results based regression, which is what matters. Results matter. No two opponents are the same. So if that is your requirement to judge improvement and regression, you are never going to get it.

Right. Which is probably why he is now more involved in the play calling.

From what I read here, no one could really tell a difference.

It doesn’t matter what you read on here. He told you that he was more involved. It’s a fact. He got more involved for a reason. I never said it was more successful once he got involved because it wasn’t.

I guess we will see once the season ends.

I believe many of the criticisms regarding playcalling to be unfounded and I think it's more of an execution issue.

Hard to be successful when you have a relatively inexperienced quarterback paired with no run game.

Let's be honest, BK has been trying to rebuild this team since Orgeron burnt the bitch down. Worst WR room at LSU in my lifetime, worst RB room at LSU in my lifetime, worst DBs at LSU in my lifetime, and etc. The offense is just dreadful besides Taylor and sometimes Campbell on the line.

Well we were 6-1 and just beat ole miss not too long ago.

Clearly things have changed.

Congrats you were right. Despite being flawed, deep down you knew we sucked.

They have a noticeable pattern. They let the nuclear meltdown clear from people who work for a living and show up at 10 A.M. on Monday morning and pump sunshine for 5 days about the 2025 recruiting class until the next loss.

After Vandy, they'll still be giving the talent excuse and blaming Coach O.

Rich coming from a guy who is still pining for O.

Damn, sounds like the coach needs to get a QB with experience and better players in the run game. So next year will your excuse be that it’s hard to be successful when you have to replace 4/5 offensive linemen? And then the year after, when it’s Underwood’s first year starting you’ll go back to the inexperienced QB excuse?

I like the hire to stabilize the program but you don’t do it for 10 years. You wanna overpay, fine but it’s a 5 year deal or in that range at least.

Pretty sure that was all Kelly.

At Kelly’s age, you don’t leave Notre Dame for a 5 year deal. If you’re gonna leave, you’re looking at your retirement gig. That’s what it took to get him.

I am not a Kelly fan I am an LSU fan but I’ll take the bait. If you take the dropped interceptions, the dropped passes, the pic penalty on the TD, Taylor stepping out of bounds, Hilton missing on 2 catchable balls you probably have over 150 additional yds passing and 3 TD’s. At some point players have to make plays. They were in position to do it. That would be coaching. They were running the ball which has been missing last few games. Doesn’t mean Kelly isn’t beyond criticism and may have made a few bad calls but to put it entirely on coaching is wanting to push your narrative. Players need to make plays when put in position and they were. They didn’t.
