re: The criticism of Brian Kelly is interesting

I think a lot of us at least partially agree with what Brian Kelly is saying, but saying this publicly doesn't do his program any favors.

I don't think it's a negative.

He's essentially saying players need to want to come to LSU because they're going to be developed and to win championships, not because they want a lot of NIL money.

Kirby and Saban have said similar things, they just didn't go as far as Kelly.

You may lose the focus of those players who are looking for a big payday but those players rarely work out anyway.
