Bk averages 3.5 losses a year. Nobody wants him


He has a better winning percentage than every other SEC coach at their current job, other than Kirby.

If that's bad, I don't know what you'd consider the rest of them.

Meanwhile, Harbaugh just won his first natty at age 60.



He had only been at Michigan since he was 51. Maybe Kelly will win one at 69 or 70, but at his age it starts becoming much less likely with each passing year.

no, it was the old "LSU fans are so insecure they can't tell the difference between trolling and being serious"

A lot of people say this but I don't know if it's necessarily true.

An old guy can win a title, if he's a program with resources.

Bobby Bowden was like 64 when he won his first natty.

Well actually 4 at current job.

He also averages 9 wins a year where Kelly averages 10.

Oh, ok. How many consecutive ten-win seasons does he currently have? It’s gotta be more than Killer Kelly, amirite?!

I'm sure Kelly will be retired in ten years also.

So much false in this statement. It was just the scared bitches hoping he would go before he takes over the league. Now all they can do is prepare their anus and get ready for the show.

Ohhhhh so now that’s the excuse for being wrong. He was never considering it and Made hogan knew it. He’s an intelligent man and that’s why he’s the winningest active coach in the ncaa. He knows what he has at LSU. Get a clue

Only Saban and Bowden have won NC’s at over 60 years of age since like 1997.

It gets harder. I’m not really sure why you would argue otherwise.

How many 60+ year old coaches were actually coaching at an elite program since then?

Not many.

There is likely a reason for that, which reinforces the point.

With age, it is both harder to relate to younger players and staff members and coach with the same fire.

Also, they've made a ton of money by then and have just retired or went the media route.

I don't think it's any "harder" for someone who is 60 to win a natty than it is for someone who is 55.

That's just something fans say.

So many clowns here. BK 3rd winningest active coach in College Football. Back to back 10 wins season, Heisman winner and the current #1 ranked recruiting class for next year.
Just saying his name on this board creates instant triggering by so many. The LSU obsession is real yet hilarious.

He also beat the ever loving shite out of Kelly on his home turf by like 4 touchdowns. All while Kelly had a fricking heisman winner at qb and TN had a guy who got benched at Virginia Tech.

Maybe, maybe not. But 55 is a good mark. When you realize you have about 20-25 years left of life and maybe 15-20 really good, healthy ones, I'd imagine the reality of your last chapter affects the motivation to keep rowing hard into the twilight. That's not universal, of course, but it's a likely enough reality.
