Freeman has a better overall winning percentage than Kelly since the move.

Freeman is also 8 - 4 against ranked teams since the move. Kelly is 3 - 6.

Despite some of the shite I talk, I generally like you, LSU fans. But goddamn if y’all didn’t listen to us who spent 12 years watching his teams when the hire happened. It was always the man who was the limitation, not the institution.

It’s unfortunate that Kelly never got to play patsies like USC while he was Notre Dame.

I don’t think Nick has anything left in the tank. Maybe he will after a few years off but I can’t see it.

In case your post is not in jest

And look, maybe Freeman will turn out to be a good coach. He seems like a great enough guy and his players love him. But the dude was also handed a top program much like when Les Miles took over for Nick Saban. Freeman should have more success out the gate than Kelly, who literally took over a program that had bottomed completely out due to a moronic shrimp boat captain who found a winning lotto ticket on your ground.

Do you really think ND fans are watching him shite the bed over and over and over at LSU and somehow feel jealous?

Kelly might not win a NC at LSU but Ill bet you any kind of money Freeman won't win one at ND

Go look at his current recruiting class on On3 and that with the QB thats going to flip to Auburn

3+ years ago that’s an excuse, not these days. Unlimited transfer and NIL you should be able to turn a program like LSU around in a year, 2 tops. I’m sorry but the “cupboard is bare” excuse in year 3 isn’t going to fly.

How is LSU in NIL? I haven't seen or heard about them making any big noise in that respect. No offense, but they don't seem to have the warchest of other top programs.

Even the idiots who are mad that he's old don't realize he builds solid programs. There is a very, very high % chance when he retires in 5-7 years that we are seen as a super elite program for the next guy.

He's not a stubborn creep like Miles or an certified idiot like Orgeron


Guess which of our esteemed posters said this about BK when he got the LSU job?

Brian Kelly's the reason Marcus Freeman is doing what he's doing so I don't agree
