Assuming he has no idea what to do with a running back that would be true. But that wasn't true at Washington. This is true in Baton Rouge.
Per TeamRankings, LSU had the 14th ranked rushing attack last season. Washington was #102.
LSU's leading rusher averaged 5.5 YPC, Washington's averaged 5.1
Your takes are laughingly ignorant.

Les Miles put a better product on the field and many purple fans want to refer to him as a moron. There is no reach here. Kelly is less.
Miles took over a program that had went 22-4 over Saban's final two seasons and went 22-4 in his first two seasons.
22-4 to 22-4
Kelly took over a program that went 11-12 over Orgeron's final two seasons and went 20-7 in his first two seasons.
11-12 to 20-7

It was their first win against LSU since the Bush administration, so ...

I know what Les did. Do the purple people know? Kelly can't put a defense on the field. His offenses are finesse and no better in the running back position than Les was in the passing game. BAMA fans have been looking at Brian Kelly since the 2012 season. Hell of a sample size.

Like I said, you're going to hate DeBoer if these things bother you.

I wouldn't confuse Washington and LSU. On the field or their record.

That's fine, just look at the stats.
Brian Kelly's average defense at LSU over two seasons was ranked #75.
Kalen DeBoer's average defense at Washington over two seasons was ranked #83.
LSU's leading rusher (outside of Jayden Daniels) averaged 5.5 YPC in both of Kelly's first two seasons.
Washington's leading rusher in 2022 averaged 6.3 YPC, their leading rusher in 2023 averaged 5.1
If you dislike a "finesse offensive attack" and a lack of defense at times, there's nothing to suggest that you'll like DeBoer.

Kelly's biggest win of his entire career was a regular season game against Alabama that he won by a point in OT.
The guy has been coaching for a long time. You think he'd have something a little more substantial to show for it. But he's managed to choke and get blown out in every single big postseason opportunity.
i really don't get the faith in this guy.

So you're predicting DeBoer won't be able to utilize arguably the deepest RB room in the conference?

Most of these "opportunities" have come vs some actual elite teams who went undefeated and won the championship.
Why is Brian Kelly a bad coach because he lost to teams like 2018 Clemson and 2020 Alabama when no one else beat them either? 2018 Alabama lost to 2018 Clemson just as bad as BK did with far more talent and tGOAT head coach.

I'm sure he will to some extent but that wasn't what was being discussed. bamameister was criticizing Kelly's "finesse offense." DeBoer's offenses have also been "finesse" until now.

Just losing is one thing, but he wasn't even competitive in those losses. Most were over by halftime, and the BCS championship was literally out of reach after the first quarter. That's pathetic.
Factor in the amount of games Kelly has already been blown out during his short tenure at LSU (5 out of 7 losses), and I really have no clue why there is so much faith in him to do anything noteworthy, much less bring home a title.

BK is headed to a Jimbo-like failure. I say like because Jimbo has championship hardware that matters. BK was always a scrub coach in Power 5 football.

Can't speak for Notre Dame but since he's been at LSU, he tends to get very aggressive in games where they're overmatched.
It works sometimes, like the win vs Bama, sometimes it leads to a blowout.
If we're being honest though, very few teams were "competitive" vs 2022 Georgia, 2020 Bama, and 2018 Clemson.

It was 14-0... that isn't really out of reach.

And DeBoerHead is what??? He's won as many CFP national championship title games as CBK.

Edit: Just remembered Bama scored on the first play at the start of the 2nd quarter.

Did you watch that game? Anyone who remembers Bama's first scoring drive knew ND had little to no hope, and their only chance was to match scores. They failed to even score a point in the second quarter.
Then Kelly pretty much said they were giving up during his halftime interview going into the locker room. What a leader of men.

DeBoer has actually shown he can win a playoff game. And if his QB didn't make some uncharacteristically bad throws to wide open receivers for TD's, he actually had a shot to win a championship, unlike Kelly in his title appearance.
