He echoed many of the same sentiments that are posted on this board daily, he stated that LSU is not interested in players who are simply looking for a fat paycheck.
The board blasts him for having the same opinions they do.
quote:
"We were in the market in recruiting in the transfer portal, looking for defensive linemen," Kelly said, according to WAFB's 9 Jacques Doucet. "It hasn't fared very well, quite frankly. Because we're selling something a little differently and that is: We want to recruit, we want to engage, build relationships, develop, retain, and have success.
"We're not in the market of buying players. And unfortunately, right now, that's what some guys are looking for. They want to be bought."

if you're just looking to get paid, you're looking in the wrong place," Kelly said.

It's politics man.
If my guy does it, it's good.
If the enemy of my guy does it, it's bad.
You should know this. You engage in it as much as anyone here.

I don't know that I've ever trashed an opposing coach for echoing a viewpoint that I share.
Someone can correct me if I'm mistaken.

That wasn't the wisest choice of words.

Fans can say this shite out loud, dumdum. Coaches aren't supposed to.
Sure, let's all slow clap for Brian Kelly and his bullshite about culture, commitment, development, family and whatever other dumb shite every coach in this conference has some version of, on deck and ready to spew at a moment's notice..
We're all proud. Brian Kelly took a stand and asked a player to take less than market value because his selling point is that LSU is in some way, unique or special. When the truth of the matter is that they simply couldn't cough up the scratch.
Well this is Brian Kelly's Jerry Mcguire moment. Let us all just watch and see what happens next.

It wasn't and it shows Brian Kelly isn't ready to manage an NIL roster.

This board is obsessed with anything Brian Kelly or LSU. What’s new

Sounds like LSU is still paying for those 2023 womans basketball and baseball titles.

My answer was more meta than that. You don't even recognize your own behavior pattern

Like I said, I can't recall criticizing an opponent for a viewpoint that I actually agree with.
And I'm one of the worst trash talkers on this board.

Two things:
1 - How does he know that $$$ is the only motivation for these players he's referring to?
2 - How can he say that $$$ wasn't Baker's only motivation?
It's a disingenuous stance.

Most people agree with it as long as it’s not Nick Saban saying it

Leave that to programs like 8&4

I assume through his conversations with them.

The STL Post Dispatch reported that Mizzou was prepared to make a competing offer to Baker so it would seem that money was the only factor in his decision.

Double standard. Meager with players while
money grows on trees when he wants an assistant.
Mainly it was just a dumb thing to say out loud or it was a clumsy way to ask for more money.
