Scott Woodward’s hire of Brian Kelly is not like his other hires at LSU

The thing that Jay Johnson, Kim Mulkey, and Matt McMahon all have in common that Brian Kelly does not is they all love recruiting. Those three are recruiting junkies even though McMahon era is not starting out the way we want because of the Will Wade mess but he is at least trying unlike what I see from Brian Kelly.

Jay Johnson is out there recruiting his butt off and he was recruiting while they were at Omaha on our championship run. Kim Mulkey is the same age as Brian Kelly and she is always out there recruiting the best players she can get to LSU. Woodward just gave a coach who does not like to recruit and does not understand recruiting in the SEC a 10 year contract and now we are stuck with him for another 8 years.

I knew he was not big on recruiting but I thought at least he would bring in a top staff with his $95M he is getting. This is Woodward’s mess and he needs to get involve and help fix it by contacting and getting better coaches on the defensive side of the ball who can coach and recruit. Also, he needs to make Kelly understand that we are in a NIL world and that is the game we have to play now in recruiting.

Kim was on tv like 3 days ago and all but admitted she absolutely hates recruiting

She may hate it but she is doing it because she knows you can’t win championships without getting the best players.

it’s just a different animal.

LSU Baseball is a big fish in a small pond in the College Baseball World

Women’s basketball is a cult of personality sport. Mulkey is a 3x NC coach. one of the greatest ever. combine that with any kind of interest in NIl for WBB and you’ll have insane success.

Football- everyone wants to eat.

You are right it is a different animal that everybody wants to eat. That is why you have to have a football coach who is going to put that work in to get the best players and not all this we want graduate of champions crap.

Kelly is garbage and has never won anything relevant. That’s the difference.

I didn’t think BK was a good fit at all….we be mediocre until we get better staff in here. This ain’t it

It’s hard to tell anything about recruiting now with NIL and portal.

This is Woodward’s mess and he needs to get involve and help fix it by contacting and getting better coaches on the defensive side of the ball who can coach and recruit. Also, he needs to make Kelly understand that we are in a NIL world and that is the game we have to play now in recruiting.

Are you 12 years old? Wtf

Nope, Jay Johnson is the exception.

MBB: caved to ncaa and sacrificed Wade while still voluntarily vacating wins in football and hiring a eunuch.

FB: I told y’all from the start, Kelly is all name no championship

WBB: fell into his lap that Mulkey was from the state. Plus it’s women’s basketball who the hell cares?

Jay is his only true home run.
