re: Jimbo vs. Brian Kelly

None of these "facts" necessarily apply to Jimbo at A&M vs Kelly at LSU. Are you suggesting that Kelly is a worse coach than the guy who Jimbo struggled to go .500 against?

I’m suggesting that after analyzing both of their records, these are 2 coaches who’s best days, (winning percentage wise) were probably left at their last jobs. There’s just way more competition in the sec west.

However, Kelly will have more talent at LSU. I think he’s a good coach. I just think he couldn’t get it done at the highest level of the sport. It remains to be seen how well he will do having more talent but also vs. higher competition.

It’s obvious that with NIL, Jimbo will have a lot more talent to work with at A&M in the next 4 years than he did his first 4. Will that matter? I think it’s pretty obvious you don’t have to be a world class coach to win with the kind of talent we just signed in 2022. But we will see.
