re: Going to laugh my arse off if UF gets Kelly and LSU hired O

Kelly's offense is not physical enough to work in the SEC. The PAC-12 was basically the Big 12 when he was there. The only physical teams he played beat them (Auburn, LSU, Stanford).

His offense did pretty decently in the NFL. He just wasn't a pro style coach and had issues with being a control freak and lost his momentum. He was significantly better than Saban at the pro level. So this argument is a little...meh. He had less talent. He went 2-2 vs Stanford facing Harbaugh and Andrew Luck, so not a good argument. Auburn he lost by 2 points, on a miracle play, vs Cam Newton, and had eight less five stars on the field. LSU was his only really bad loss, and it was LSU's best team ever most likely. This argument holds very little weight to it. He had issues getting big name defensive line to come to Oregon, and it showed because you can't hide the talent gap in the trenches. Not his fault. More the fault of location and limits to recruiting success there.
