re: SECr straw poll: if DeBoer didn’t have 67 wins at NAIA, how bad would Bama be melting?

Brian Kelly spent his first thirteen years at Grand Valley State. LSU count those wins.

I don’t count those wins. BK is doing extremely well so far fixing his frick ups from this season but I’m not going to sit here and say that I fully believe BK can win in the long term in the SEC because of what he did at Grand Valley State. It’s a non factor.

DeBoer is basically a 100% unknown IMO. He has a good record from 20 years ago at the NAIA level, he has a short tenure at Fresno, and a good tenure at Washington with a Heisman finalist QB. None of those things are indicative of how good he is or isn’t going to be, but y’all are choosing to ignore his poor recruiting track record, shaky wins against sub par competition, and the massive boost that coaches get from having a Heisman-ish QB in favor of his wins at a crap school that no one has ever heard of.
