re: Kelly says things not going well on defensive line recruiting

I'm still confused as to why some of you are trying to insist that Kelly is against NIL/paying players.

Because he literally said LSU doesn’t want guys looking for NIL deals. The “we are selling something else” statement he hid behind and the LSU faithful believed.

He could have said the players didn’t fit what LSU is looking for. He could said they were not willing to go all in unproven guys in his system. He could have said the guys have been a luxury because more depth in the trenches is always a goal but coach David has absolute confidence in the guys on the roster. He could have been really honest and said he needed another booster to embezzle from a children’s hospital to build up the war chest.

But nope he said we don’t need to buy players.
