What Kelly did with 39 scholarship players in a total rebuilding season has been incredible.



This is actually mis-quoted on a regular basis. This is the amount of scholarship players that played in the Texas Bowl. Some of those players graduated, quit or transferred. Kelly as LSU coach only had about 25 scholarship players at the beginning of his tenure at LSU.

Ok. Now read what the OP said.

ETA
He clearly said, “What Kelly did with 39 players…”

Unless LSU played the season with 39 players the OP is lying. I have seen more than one LSU fan claim that Kelly coached the season with 39 players, too.

He's also clearly not the crunchiest chip in the bag.

I wad simply clarifying where the number 39 came from.

I've heard from 68-72. Also heard on the radio at lunch that he had 47 scholarship players when they got back from the bowl game and that's what he began with.

40 scholarship players when BK took over.

Added 15 recruits and 16 transfers.

Sitting at 71 now.

That number doesn't include Myles Brennan or anyone who has entered the portal.

Kirby deserves it.
He lost 5 first round draft picks on defense and we still had the #1 scoring defense the next year.


In the mix to win back-to-back national titles after losing an NFL team worth of talent. Kirby is the answer.

I disagree. For the future, between Heupel and Kelly, Kelly's obviously the better of the two. Heupel won't duplicate this season unfortunately for the Vols. He'll probably end up somewhere else anyways.



LSU is a powerhouse and won Championship not too long ago. Plus, one of the better recruiting grounds around.

I misunderstood. My apologies.

Ftr, I was aware where he got the number.
Also, I think there is a case for Kelly to be COTY.

I bet they give it to Beamer. He made a ton of noise the last 3 weeks. Any of 4 coaches would be deserving.

LSU had 39 players on scholarship for last seasons bowl game. winning 9 games and getting to atlanta is quite the feat.

In 10 years, it'll be down to only 14 scholarship players.
