re: Brian Kelly Can't Recruit

If winning natties and then having a couple of down years will get you fired at LSU Grinding Brian is safe. He will never come close to a Natty. At LSU or anyplace else

This is actually interesting. I had never thought of it this way. In Ed Orgeron’s last 5 seasons he went:

9-4
10-3
15-0
5-5
6-6

That is a record of 45-18. If you remove 2020, which LSU fans say doesn’t count at all and should be ignored, his record was 40-13. That is a 75% winning percentage. That is damn good. Right on par with Brian Kelly’s 74% winning percentage at LSU.

Even if you count 2020 coach O still had a 71% winning percentage. Still way better than LSU’s all time win percentage of 61%.

Did coach O get fired for going 15-0 and building unreasonable expectations? Sure looks like that from the outside looking in.
