I mean at the end of the day, it's just football really.

Everyone acts like these things are life and death. They're not.

LSU (and every other team for that matter) will play their next game. They could either win or lose. No big deal ultimately.

No. Even if his buyout were a quarter of what it is, I doubt he gets fired.

Woodward made the hire and wants to give him every chance to succeed. A lot of the problems last year and this year were explained away as defensive talent issues because of the Matt House and Brian Polian hires two years ago.

With the incoming recruiting class and 2026 bumper crop in state, the hope is the talent will be there.

Probably not. We certainly got a lot of enjoyment out of yall over the years. And yall still have the milkmen, which apparently no amount of money can ever get rid of.

No fan base wants a coach to have a guaranteed contract.

All schools hv to be smarter with these contracts; it’s a travesty to say the least especially schools who live and breath football; you know what is expected walking in the door; Jimbo literally ripped A&M off like Kelly is starting to do with LSU. Many LSU fans even if silent were screaming get rid of that fraudster, becuz this sets a really bad standard for other teams and their fan base.

Kelly inherited a worse situation than Elko in his first year, but somehow managed to win the West and play in the SEC Championship game. He produced a Heisman winner in his second season. There were signs things were shaky, but Year 3 has been a disaster. Kevin Sumlin was looking really good after his first season also. Kelly is our Sumlin.


Might be a good analogy. There was definitely some drama with Sumlin and his QB room after JFF.

BK publicly throwing players under the bus on sidelines or press conferences is a different dynamic. Now players are cussing him out. Lots of discord there.

There should have been a clause in Kelly’s contract that if LSU loses three consecutive games by double digits, he can be fired with cause.

Thing I don't understand is how this guy keeps getting
off the hook for throwing other people's tons of cash around.
The village idiot can do that.

Kelly couldn’t win anything of note at Notre Dame who received special treatment at every turn.

He’s not winning shite at LSU. He’s a 3 or 4 loss a season Coach in The SEC.
