You’ve always been a pretty terrible poster incapable of grasping nuanced takes…. and yet I’m still surprised by your confusion on this issue. First of all, I don’t think I’ve ever bashed Kelly in my life nor do I care about what he said as a third party. That said, from what I saw from him getting crushed on here it had nothing to do with whether posters agreed with what he said, they just thought it was a dumb thing to advertise/admit.




I don't think it's dumb to tell players that if they're just looking for money, don't come to LSU.

Those players are usually a problem anyway.

I’m actually surprised you didn’t deflect, good on you there. And I get your point, as I got Kelly’s point when I read the whole quote. Again, i think many were just saying it was risky at best to admit all that. Perhaps not.

Unfortunately, it appears that most players are taking money as a major consideration. I still get sick thinking about Saban saying that in his end of season meetings with players (which he does every year to discuss plans, goals, etc. ), all they wanted to talk about was money and that was a big factor in his retiring.
