Kelly has done that too.


I'm not saying he's a terrible coach, I'm saying I don't want him.

He was at a blue blood in Notre Dame for 11 years and I personally doubt those teams of his make the postseason championships if not for the Notre Dame name. Hell, in 2020 they lost to Clemson by 24 points in the ACC championship and still made the playoffs.

In post season games with a championship in play, he was outscored 103-31. He never won a single one of them, or even came close to winning one. Always outclassed and outcoached. And even had he won the the 2012/2013 Championship, it would have been taken away because their season and the following season was vacated for academic violations.

Notre Dame was more consistently relevant towards the end of his time, but I think a good bit of that is also because teams like USC, Stanford etc have been down and outside Clemson, their ACC schedule has been kind.

Just seems like a guy who always struggles against top teams.

Who was a better option?

The teams he faced in those games were a combined 41-1, it's not like other teams were beating them either.

2018 Clemson beat Saban just as bad as they did Kelly.

It's just interesting to see some Alabama fans bash BK when it's a very similar hire.

Same goes with LSU fans bashing DeBoer.
