Kelly also took over an absolute fricking dumpster fire of a program and won the SEC west with it his first year

Acting like it was a “disaster” hire is insane. The program was still stable and fine. It sure feels like a disaster now though

Kelly and smart are worlds apart and have zero business being compared to one another

Jay was a great hire.

Mulkey was good, but she wanted to be here. Great hire, but I think any AD could have accomplished that.

I’m no Landry fan by any means and do think he could have done all he’s done and just kept his mouth shut but it seems that is his little man personality that he has to be in the spotlight and pump his chest.

But my question is, isn’t he only acting in that position because we are short a president? I mean I could see him ruining his mouth still but would he be this involved if we had a president and was wasn’t acting in this role due to not having one?

He tried to cement his legacy with the BK hire and it blew up in his face

What he did to the players on that last Will Wade roster should have cost him his job.

Dude, all these guys are not mad because Woodward is gone. They’re mad because a Republican Governor ran him off. Your post is 100% accurate. The fate of an AD is in the hands of his football and basketball coaches.

You act like we didn’t make fun of Kelly for beating up on weaklings and getting crushed every big game he was in for years here. He did the same thing here, 5-11 vs the top 25. I know you hate the governor but don’t try to rewrite Kelly’s past.

100%, all of the sudden Kelly is great and Woody is untouchable. I bet if you go back to Saturday and Sunday these same posters are singing a different tune.

So now we’re deflecting and asking loaded questions to do it? Lol

Deflecting? On paper Kelly was as good of a hire as possible for an AD

You are saying you knew he wouldn’t be good because of his record against the top 25

I want to know since you know so much who would you hire?

That’s such a dumb argument. Then why didn’t Alleva hire Mulkey, instead of Nikki Caldwell?

The new president will take over in a few weeks and Landry will go back to the capital and none of this will even matter. Saban will be the new AD.
