If Nick Saban's warm and engaging personality helped him win and influence people the people in Tuscaloosa, I am sure Kelly's can, i.e. winning.

The only true grand-slam hires are where the expectations for the coach are to do exactly what they’ve already done at a previous job under closely similar circumstances. The hires I think of in this category are:

1. Saban at Alabama
2. Urban at Ohio State
3. Jimbo at A&M

It looks like number 3 is showing that even grand slams don’t always work.

Edit: Johnny Majors at Tennessee would be another grand slam that didn’t work.

I actually know little about him; but I’ve zero doubt Woodward vetted him thoroughly and negotiated a great deal on behalf of LSU.
It’s fun hiring a new coach ... enjoy the ride, and congratulations!

He's a good coach but not a homerun hire in my opinion....

I expect a perennial 2nd or 3rd place team in the West under Kelly.

I've never been impressed with a 10 win team who does it against a shitty schedule tbh....
