What are these similarities other than being white guys without SEC ties? You keep saying it over and over, but you don't really offer any evidence to support it.
They're both guys with no SEC ties, their prior recruiting has been questioned, they're well respected coaches, a lot of staff continuity, and they've won everywhere they've been.
DeBoer played for a natty in his 2nd season at the P5 level and Kelly did in his 3rd, both were dominated.
The biggest difference in Kelly is 0-2 in playoff games and DeBoer is 1-0, but as we've said, Kelly ran into some elite teams where DeBoer had a perfect matchup for his team.

BK spent 11 years at a blue blood,
Being a blue blood doesn't mean shite anymore. Notre Dame isn't a top 10 team in terms of talent, recruiting, facilities, or NIL resources. They aren't as financially committed to football as the actual elite programs, it's why they haven't won a major bowl game in 30 years.

Kelly is 0-3 in post season championship play.

Before Brian Kelly, ND recruited in the top5. #5 in 2007, #4 in 2008, down to #17 in 2009, the year BK came in and replaced the existing coach. I don't remember if BK wasn't able to retain the class or if it never got up due to coach being fired rumors though.
Under Brian Kelly, ND recruited in the 11-15 range.
Since BK, they have classes ranked 6th, 10th and 10th. So their recruiting was better before BK and has gotten better since he was replaced.
So I guess I just don't know what the hell you are talking about.
As far as the 30 years thing, BK was HC for 11 of those 30 years.
