I think fans need to realize that BK doesn't answer to us and like most successful HCs has an ego and doesn't like being pressured or questioned. He will tell us who is being hired and fired when he wants to tell us who is hired and being fired and we just have to wait until that time comes.

He will either win here or he won't but he's not gonna bend to the fans will either way.

I respect him more because of that, and more people should too.

He kind of does but not in the way people here seem to think.

I would say like most successful head coaches he ignores all the noise.

He has a process and it appears to be very professional.

I remember the same argument when Dinardo needed to fire Tepper. Dinardo didn't take action so he got his own arse fired too.

Saban's systems stay the same no matter who is the OC and DC. Kelly does the same on offence.

No clue what LSU does on defense. Does anyone run out crap scheme at a top tier level?

He listened to us when we told him to move Perkins from ILB.

You’re comparing a coach who has 7 nattys to a coach who’s barely over .500 against top 25 teams.

Sure, have some......


LSU isn't bama, will not be bama and doesn't run its program like bama.

He was/and still may be the coach with the most wins of any active coach. You can't just pull bits and pieces of the record to falsely claim that he is a bad coach. This just isn't true.

34-33 against top 25 teams 6-19 vs top 10. Doesn’t sound very much like a winner to me.

Did he claim that? I don’t think anybody is saying that Brian Kelly is a bad coach. Pretending that BK is on the same level as Saban is asinine.

Kind of an ironic statement since you’re using D2 wins to bolster Kelly’s totals. On the D1 level he’s 4th among active coaches, Saban is over 100 wins ahead of him.

Explain how he kind of answers to us.

He answers to the AD regardless of what the know it all’s here think or say.

Many of the window-licking dickheads who hang out here disregard anything remotely positive concerning Kelly. Truth has nothing to do with it.
