Not comparable, but keep chugging


There also wasn't a 12 team playoff during the first two seasons he was at LSU.

Not to mention the fact that he took over a much worse situation than DeBoer.

So are we making fun of Brian Kelly getting fired at LSU in thread or not? You guys can't make up your minds

Hey, not my fault LSU fans saw Kelly never win a playoff game and thought “he’s the guy.”

At least DeBoer has shown with the right QB, he can make a national title game. I trust Russell and DeBoer more than Kiffin and a guy who couldn’t beat Miss State last year.

We certainly didn't give him a massive extension, that's for sure.

So did BK.

Fair enough, but you're wrong pretty consistently

What a complete lack of self awareness.

Sad.

DeBoer actually won a playoff game to make it to the NCG. Won his conference at Washington as well by beating Oregon twice. Comparing him to Kelly is lazy.

Sure DeBoer hasn’t been out of this world but he’s shown more progress than Kelly. He’s definitely a better coach.

If you say so.

The facts of the matter bear out that BK took over a sub .500 team and went 20-7.

DeBoer took over a team that was one play from the natty and proceeded to go 20-8 over his first two seasons. Lucky for him, there was a 12 team playoff so Bama fans could get a moral victory.

Hey, for Bama it's "just some" excuses if we lose, we're not always making them.

Did he retain all of those players? He lost Downs and a Heisman finalist before he had even settled in.

Thinking he took over a Saban roster is your first mistake.

I think part of BK's issue was that his best year was his first year when the roster was in shambles. Things didn't get better (as you would expect them to after he built the roster back up).

It'll never not crack me up how people just blow off any context about the playoff being extended to 12 teams the last 2 seasons.

Baw, every time I talk to a Bammer, they're making excuses.

"Oh, he lost Downs and some other guys."

"Oh, he needs his own quarterback."

"I didn't know my bullets would fly that far."

"She didn't look like my sister."

This is the stereotypical bullshite that makes you a troll. Everyone here is talking ball. Stick to that instead the usual troll bait.

This would be so much funnier if Debeor didn't own LSU.

It's funny how you love to troll when it's everyone else but you get mad when it's Bama.

Well yeah coonass, I can do that because Alabama owns LSU.

When LSU fans try it just looks desperate.
