The numbers overall are that he averaged 3.5 losses per year at ND and in his first 2 years at LSU he had 7 losses... 3.5 per year. He may turn out to be a great coach at LSU but it's not a stretch to see why there are questions


Saban had 8 losses in his first two seasons at Alabama.

Again, how is Kelly "overrated?"

He's a good coach, no one is saying he's tGOAT.

In 2007 Saban's Alabama was 7-6 with a very not good team. In his second year they were 12-0 and ranked #1 until Tebow/UF came from behind in the 4th quarter and beat them in the SECCG. In Saban's third year they won the national championship. That is not the trajectory of Kelly, unless he wins the natty this year. It's not a matter of being overrated, it's just that he hasn't shown (yet) that he's a championship coach.
