re: LSU last coaching search - Tigers made the right hire

BK was a damn good get for LSU, the bastards. Would love to see it all implode but Kelly is the real deal. He may or may not be extremely successful at LSU but odds are he will be and odds are better than good that he was the best hire of any school in a while....the bastards LOL.

This is a reasonable take. I don’t think Kelly is a Saban or Smart, but I also don’t think he’s a Jimbo. He will certainly leave LSU in much better shape than he got it, and I do think he’ll have us contending again with consistency.

Broken record, but it’s only year 2 for Kelly, and he really did inherit a dumpster fire from Orgeron. He was probably being very honest that this is a 3-4 year rebuild.

However, he has got to make so serious changes on defense in two weeks. That is a non-negotiable IMO.
