.nothing will have changed between BK and Freeman.
Nothing will have changed except Freeman brought a team to the national championship after winning three playoff games in a row I guess? BK brought them to a championship game after cheesing 6 games in an easy regular season schedule and then got blown out in the bowl game. Notre Dame had half their players on the field as second and third string starters these last three games due to injury. Our fanbase is delusional, we are not even close to Notre Dames talent and potential and that’s thanks to Freeman handling the current college football climate way better than BK. Freeman has brought in better talent than BK did in recruiting, he’s performing better in the portal. He’s way better at winning big games. Our fanbase is completely delusional after watching the physicality and talent of this Notre Dame team go 14-1 and punch a ticket to the natty and say nothing is changed between BK and Freeman. Frankly, it’s not even close. And Notre Dame fans are not even thinking about BK anymore as they have a top 3 if not the very best coach for the current college football climate in the country. How are we debating this. Annoying that half the threads on the boards are about Notre Dame. We sit here and say they’re delusional while THEY are playing for a national championship lol.

Yes, but Freeman has at least shot that shite down and he himself is a very likeable guy. At this point its not his fault the media are some race baiting losers.

Freeman is humble and likeable. He is a classy young guy and a very good coach, I can see why kids of any background would love to play for the guy.

I am not a ND fan and never have been. But I am pulling for them this year because of Freeman, a lot of people are. He is the anti-Deion Sanders for me.

On the other hand, BK is not ”an unlikable, pompous douchenozzle.” We need to be real. Personally, I don’t care about a coaches personality as much as I do creating a winning program. CBK has underwhelmed LSU fans to a great degree and he hasn’t even met his own expectations. He has a lot to prove this year for sure. For me, he has the next two years to meet expectations - I am going to pull for him to do it. If he doesn’t, well…

ADIOS.

You are a fricking retard. Clearly the ND fans were in their feelings. Apparently they still are even though their team is playing for a title.

Who gives a shite what the talking heads say? Root for LSU and leave it at that.

I called out ND posters for coming to an LSU board after a win last night. Sure seems to me like they are still in their feelings.

They got Deion Junior coaching them - they are the new shiny toy. Amazing how everyone loves ND now and for the last 25 years you would hard pressed to find a ND fan in the South.

O gtfo. Freeman is clearly a good coach and seems like a good dude. He has his guys playing hard and punching above their pay grade. They brought up him being black and he shot it down. Props to him.

Then let them who cares! We’ve won more natties in the BCS/CFP era than anyone besides Bama and notre dame is still a fruity arse school that thinks it’s Catholic Hogwarts.

Kelly has everything Freeman has and can’t get us in a 12 team playoff. Also, while we improved greatly in his first year, we haven’t improved since. There has been zero overall team progress since.


One had to build a program from the ground up and the other took over a well oiled machine that just needed some tuning up.

The transfer portal is great and all, but you cannot build a long-term successful program with the transfer portal.

Early on at ND he was. He's mellowed out now. He can still be an arse, but he's ours so we're good with it.

You might not like him, but he rebuilt your program and handed it over to a young coach who he targeted and brought into the program.

We all know this hate is just your way of saying "Thank you" to Kelly for taking ND out of the black hole that was the Weiss era. On behalf of our coach, you're welcome.

Never said he wasn't. But this place the SECrant seem to believe that he accomplished something at ND that no other HC has.

I mean, Deboer took the Huskies to a national championship game... yet he walked into a loaded bama team and lost to Vandy, OU and then their bowl game.

I think it's more that LSU now has a head coach that left a school and the guy is already doing what LSU's coach thought he could never do in just 3 years. Meanwhile Kelly looks mid and the same ol overrated coach he was at ND.

It's pretty easy to see why people are giving him some solid praise and hating on Kelly. IMO, both are deserving of that. kelly is who we thought he was, and Freeman is better than people claimed.
