On Perkins' recruitment, it seems to be a three way tie currently between A&M, Florida, and LSU.

Interesting that both LSU and Florida were able to make up so much ground despite going through coaching changes.

Seems like he and the staff have made a very good impression on at least Harold Perkins' mother


What else is she going to say? The Head coach is a creep? She is going to say nice things to help her son.

Didn't have to say anything.

It's likely they wouldn't even be considering LSU if they didn't like the coaches so not sure why she'd have to "help" her son in that case.

She’s laughing with… You’re laughing at. But keep trying to make her positive remarks into something negative, and keep trying to act like there’s no anger behind your insults. We see you.

Who are you trying to convince? The rant or yourself? When LSU goes 7-5 will you understand why no one cares about Brian Kelly?

I simply posted a quote, take it how you will.

I will say you spend a lot of time reading and posting about Brian Kelly for someone who "doesn't care about him."

The haters thought Kelly would be a flop recruiting. It’s akin to how CNN attacked Trump daily. Just make stuff up and run with it.

Time to eat the crow.

The question is not if he can recruit southern kids. It’s can he recruit at all.

Beginning as far back as Paul Dietzel, only two head FB coaches at LSU were from Louisiana, Jerry Stovall (who replaced Ohio native Bo Rein who died in a plane crash) and Ed Orgeron. Only two others were really Southern, Charles McClendon (Ark.) and Curley Hallman (Ala.) The rest were Midwesterners or played in the Midwest or Miami, Arnsparger, Archer DiNardo, Saban and Miles. So why people acted like it was a big deal to hire a coach who wasn’t from the South at LSU is bit strange.

Not sure if you remember it or not but there was a narrative here that Kelly wouldn't fit in at LSU because he was an aloof Yankee arsehole

If we are being honest, the southern vs Yankee dilemma is a white person's narrative

He isn't recruiting a majority roster of young southern white kids.

A coach that runs a tight organization, has a track record of success, and can find a way to sell that and the program on the recruiting trail in a way that speaks to the opportunity it creates for the athlete will do well.

Kelly is a good coach and will do very well at LSU.

LSU is about to reel off about 3 nattys in 7 years. Have to bookmark this thread.
