The casuals probably said this about Bobby Bowden too.

Unlike Mark Richt, Les Miles, or Special Ed Orgeron, Kelly has never won a Power-5 conference championship.

It can be tough when you're coaching an independent.

Nope. If there was no Saban then Urban would still be at Florida and Miles would still be at LSU, and UGA would still have won nothing since 1980.

Can be even tougher if you lose to Clemson in the ACCCG.

Wrong. They’d have won it all in 2012.

Urban left before Saban really hit his stride. He wanted to be at OSU.

The negative spin could be that BK has never won a P5 conference championship.

The positive spin would be that BK has appeared in a P5 conference championship game in 2 of the 3 seasons that he's been eligible and lost to more talented teams.

Just setting you straight. You were wrong, as usual, in your post.

Are you saying a team that has a top 10 blue chip ratio isn’t elite? Just want to make sure we are on the same page

Doubt it because he has multiple division titles and BCS titles as well. Not BK

I would say no, usually your first 6-7 teams are actually elite but we can say yes, for the sake of argument.

I realize BK has had elite talent at LSU for two seasons but I don't really think he had elite talent prior.
